Day 11 (Research)

On Wednesday we went to work and Jon and I decided that we should get a lot of work done on the research paper. It is due on Thursday so we wanted to get a head start and maybe even finish the rough draft. Once we got to the NIA building we went inside and printed off the outline for our research paper. We divvied up the work and everyone got to do two sections. I got to do the introduction and the Research questions section.
We did that periodically throughout the day but we also were in contact with Dr. Bushnell, the Chief Scientist of the Langley NASA Research center all day setting up a time for an interview. We have our interview tomorrow morning and it is pretty nerve racking. We worked hard all day and then when we tried to put all the files onto Jon’s computer he messed up the files somehow and we lost the entire introduction to our paper. So then we began to rewrite it and work on putting all the sections together.
Once back at the dorm I worked more on the introduction section and then went to dinner. We were required to work on our research paper for 2 hours so Jon and I sat done and worked. We got done in 45 minutes and got it turned in.
