Wikipedia I've finally presented my project, and it feels like a great weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. All I want to do now is sit around for a few days, spend time with Anne, pack, call apartments, program and eat sweets.
Unfortunately, I'm not done yet. I still have to write my honors thesis and my project paper for my graduate class.
So, onward march for me! Apparently I still have to earn my respite.
For those of you who are wondering, my presentation went pretty well. I did start fumbling with my words near the end of the presentation, when I was presenting my results. Also, apparently, during my entire presentation there was an infernal clicking sound, that I couldn't hear.
The other presentations went well too, and even though I'd heard them all a bazillion times, it was fun and interesting to listen to them, and to see how everyone had finally decided on presenting their projects.
In case you wanted to know, the other projects were about:
- Correlating alpha-amylase with behavioral signs of vigilance
- Learning shared attention in learning, maternal sensitivity and cortisol(eventually, this project and the first one were from the same lab, and their analyzey machine broke)
- Cognitive Ecology of Recycling (also, why people aren't recycling)
- Me
- What is skill? Using blade-smithery as a real-world example
- Ontogeny of a Beluga Mother-infant dyad (basically, as I could gather it, how an infant beluga's vocalizations developed in sync with it's muscular development)
- Mu rhythm suppression and the auditory mirror neuron system
NERRRRRDS.
