Final project woes
Date: 12/3/22
Training Day: Week 4, Day 6
Miles: 3.6 (hiking)
Mobility/Stretching: No
Ate Well: Not really
Commentary: Last night at the Christmas party I stuffed myself like a Thanksgiving turkey. There was so much good food! The party was at the indoor shooting range, so after dinner, a handful of us went to shoot some shit up! It felt good to get some practice with my handgun.

This morning I woke up intending to relax until my husband got home from watching the USA vs Netherlands World Cup game. I knew I needed to get working on my final project at some point, but in my head, I didn’t have much to do to finish my analysis. Then it hit me. The analysis isn’t all I have left. I also need to write at least eight pages of words. Fuck.
My husband left to go watch the game, and I opened up my project and started working. When he got back we drove out to Menan Butte for a hike. It was such a gorgeous day and probably one of the nicest days we’ve had in a long time. I’m so grateful we got outside for a bit!

Back at the house I grabbed a bite to eat and then dove back into my final project. Of course, the analysis took way longer than I anticipated. Partly because I’m still learning how to do the things, and partly because it takes time for the software to process the data.
In other news, I am sore from my strength training yesterday. Like it’s hard to get off the couch sore. Hopefully I’m less sore by the time I have to do strength training tomorrow!

Any assignment now with the word analysis makes me cringe. And start crying. PTSD.

I feel ya! I will say I’m pretty grateful that I enjoy the analysis part of my major, it’s just the writing to meet a page requirement. Bleh.

Let’s trade. I can write as many pages as you need, then you complete my analysis requirement.

Deal! I love writing reports and papers, but not when there’s a page or word requirement. If I can get the point across concisely, it seems silly to purposely be long-winded.

Agreed. But I can write for hours and never run out of things to say haha
