So I started the REU today. I met with my mentor and now I should not be blogging but reading.
I started my day with laps in the pool, and while I was doing that I thought of my friend, Rachel's blog and how she was going to compose a blog on Resistance versus Cardio. Well while I was swimming I deduced that the Breast Stroke is resistance and Freestyle is cardio. If she ever gets around to writing it I will put the link on my blog.
At work today I met my mentor and went over the game plan of what I would be doing for the next ten weeks. We came to the conclusion that the first part of this experience would involve me learning both C++ and neuroscience. In order to achieve such a feat I have been assigned homework, aka 6 total chapters in two different books (3 in each) and then I have been given a C++ bible to help me code.
This weather is killing me and I hope my body will adjust soon, until then AC is my friend, and so is the pool.

At least C++ is easier than IDL!!! You'll do fine with your Matlab background. :)
ReplyDeleteHey love. I will start blogging again. Work is EATING MY LIFE AWAY! And good luck with C++. I sure as HELL would never be able to figure it out (as you know) but I have every ounce of faith that you will kick its ass!
