I'm a member of Entertainment Weekly's Front Panel thing where you give your opinions about various stuff, just because I like giving my opinion about TV shows and movies and all that stuff. Anyways, yesterday in the mail I got a USB drive from them with the pilot from a new show or something. I don't know, I haven't watched it yet, but OMG THE USB DRIVE IS ADORABLE. I realize this is not what I should be focusing on, but seriously. It's in the shape of like a casette tape, and I don't even know, it's just really awesome. Also, it's really cool to be sent a new TV show to look at! It doesn't seem like a show I'd be interested in from the name and picture of it, but I'll maybe check it out this weekend if I have time. In any case, I'll post a picture of the USB because omg so cute. I hope I don't have to return it.
I think I'm quitting Wind Ensemble next semester. We had a meeting yesterday where our conductor told us that next semester (and also basically all next year) we're going to small ensembles instead of the big Wind Ensemble. ( Wind Ensemble talk )
I went to go through analyzing my results with my Directed Research adviser this morning, and I discovered that I accidentally left out one question for one of the scales I used. I feel so stupid. It's really not a big deal she said, since it's only one question and loads of people have done it before, but I feel stupid. Also, I have to go through all my data because some of the questions were about how many hours a person did an activity, and many people put a range, such as 2-3, but when I downloaded the results into Excel, Excel decided to automatically make 2-3 a date, so it displays as 02/03/2009 instead of the actual result. And when I change the format of the cells to general (instead of date), it gets all screwy. So I have to do it manually. ugh. I thought my data was all cleaned up for analysis, but it had so many issues, so now I have to clean it more and then meet my adviser again tomorrow to go through it. sigh. At least in 2 weeks this will all be over!
