July 28th, 2017: Day 17

This morning has mainly consisted of making our outline and trying to find Roger. He isn't a quick man but he hides pretty well. We got some notes about it and we've been trying to edit it to make it as wonderful as possible. Paige is leaving at 3 and I'm not sure what I'm doing when she leaves. Maybe cry? I'll post about it later. We plan to start thinking about the final presentation and putting images together for slides. I also want to copy our Selden Map presentation and then cut out the unnecessary slides, the ones that don't show too much information. Paige has been on the phone with her mom, Molly so I'm trying to make friends. I think it's going well. The rest of the day was mainly picking images for our final presentation and editing our outline after receiving more feedback.

August 4th, 2017: Day 22

I'm sorry about the late blog post but I've been quite busy today. The group read mine and Paige's outline during the morning meeting. She keeps telling me I don't contribute and that I'm useless but insists that I explain the outline and answer questions so I'd like an explanation about that, Paige. This morning we worked on our presentation mostly. We put together slides and got images ready. My best friend was on campus today for a college and major exposition or whatever the program is so we got lunch and I told her all about the internship and the wonderful people I've met. I got very into detail about the Lunch Bunch, I was very excited to tell her all about them. I also told her about my project and Paige, Dave, and Roger. After she left I went back inside and worked a little more on the presentation. We don't have as much data for the palimpsest as we did for the Selden Map so that section is going to be much shorter, or at least it is for now. I...

August 7th, 2017: Day 23

We actually finished all 12 outlines today!! It was thrilling. Paige and I have been cutting our 65 page presentation down to, what is now a 32 page one. Dave and David Lewis still think we need to cut it down and I'm upset about it. 15 minutes isn't enough time to explain everything we've done these past few weeks and it's sad that all of our work isn't going to be displayed. There isn't a whole lot to be said about today, other than we worked on our presentation. Tomorrow we're giving a practice presentation tomorrow with Dave and Roger. That will probably be most of my blog tomorrow.
