The last days

Submitted by srabbitt on Thu, 08/15/2019 - 20:39

These past few days have been a blur. A few weeks ago it seemed like we had lots of time to finish our proposal and poster projects. Now it feels like I am running in circles, and getting absolutely nowhere. Monday, our group worked on the research proposal for 6 hours at the dining hall, then an additional 2+ hours at home. We managed to get a lot done, but every time I read through it, seems like we should add more or change something else. The abstract it seems, was the biggest bottleneck. It was a slow difficult task coming up with something that we could all agree on.  Some of the issues that we faced as a group where: is it too much information, or not enough. Not citing any resources but sounding credible. Lastly did it seem compelling. In the end we did develop something that seemed to touch all the necessary parts an abstract should have. Compressed courses like this are extremely fast paced and there is not a lot of time for discussion. Just have to hang in there for less than 24 hours then it will all be over. In the meantime, I will try my best to maintain focus, and turn out some quality work for both me and my team.
