Last PostFinal Week: Goodbye Charleston Today is Friday which means that tomorrow we all leave back to our regular lives. Some of us will be going to the airport in the morning and then rest will drive back in their cars. All I can say about the summer is that I think this will go down as the best summer of my life so far and I had such a great experience meeting new friends and doing research with some of the smartest and coolest people I have met. I want to thank Avery, Lauren, and Caitlin for aiding me throughout the whole summer on my project and being amazing figures to look up to. I want to obviously thank Dr. Craig Young for allowing me to do such a great project and giving me the resources I needed to do the best I could have. Shout out to Flynn for being a great lab partner and always fitting in some laughs in the middle of our intense work day. I feel like I had a great time getting to know all the REU interns and we all had similar yet different experiences we are leaving with. I hope they all continue doing well in life and remember all the fun memories we shared throughout the 9 weeks here. The week went by slow which felt good because we leave tomorrow and it is very bitter sweet. I tried to take advantage of any opportunity to have fun and to learn. Going to UO main campus to work on TEM with the grad students and Flynn was a really fun time and I finally got to see Hayward Field !! The poster presentation is now over and I am very proud of my work and everyone elses. You can tell by just looking at their posters how much time and effort was put into their posters and how they basically became experts in their subject. I hope to keep in touch with everyone and all in all a great summer at OIMB! Time to kick back at Richards pot luck and share our last memory here on the Oregon Coast! I got asked today a few times “Whats next for you?” And I think whats next is that I will be attending a new University at UCSC and I will be embarking in a new journey and will be meeting tons of new people. I hope that this REU reflects well on my knowledge of marine sciences and helps be get more opportunities in the Earth Science department at UCSC.
