brokenrecordI never talk about Castle (I find it fun most of the time, but I don't really care about it and am not very invested in it), but I actually have a few things to say.
LOL OMG WHY DID I GET SO EXCITED ABOUT MARC BLUCAS SHOWING UP? I don't even like Riley! I have nothing against Marc Blucas (obviously) but it's not like I really love him or even like him that much. Oh well. Marc Blucas + Nathan Fillion is a Buffy reunion of sorts, anyways, even though they never appeared in the same episode together.
laksjf OMG SHAWN FROM BOY MEETS WORLD. This I am legit excited about. I'm such a dork. Shawn was always my favorite. Oh Boy Meets World. I haven't watched that show in ages. There used to be reruns of it all the time, I'd watch them like everyday.
OMG AND AMBER TOO WTF IS THIS. So many random guest stars I recognize!
Also, omg I feel so much affection towards this show for the psych stuff they had in this episode. In contrast to Bones which never fails to piss me off when they go into any psych stuff, the memory and amnesia stuff was pretty spot-on from what I've learned in psych. I mean, to be fair, I'm not expert. But there was at least nothing like blatantly, horribly wrong. A+, show.
Today I had my presentation of my research project to my group. I hate presentations, but this one went... all right. I mean, it was pretty casual, and there were only 5 other students and our professor. And we've been discussing our projects with each other all semester, so it felt more comfortable talking about it with them. Luckily for the Minnesota Undergraduate Psychology Conference in the spring, apparently we don't actually have to give a 10-minute talk in front of a bunch of people, like they were making it seem at the beginning of the semester. We can if we want to request to talk, but otherwise we just have to stand by our poster for an hour and give little 1-2 minute talks about what we researched to the people that come by. So that's less stressful than I was originally thinking. And it's not until like... April, anyways.
I have another presentation tomorrow, but that one's a group presentation. We have to present for like 45-60 minutes instead of 10 minutes (like in my presentation this morning), though, so that's not fun. Tonight I have to prepare and practice for that presentation and finish as much of my research project paper as possible so I can have it done by Thursday night so hopefully my adviser will have time to look it over before it's due on Monday. I wish I had gone to talk to her on Monday about it like I planned, because I don't have time today (from 1-2 is my only break in the day until 4:30, and she teaches class from 1:10-2:10 and is leaving before 4:30). I haven't even mentioned giving her a draft of the whole paper beforehand, but she's usually pretty awesome about reading through drafts, so I'm hoping it'll be okay. =/ If she can't do the whole thing, I need her to at least look over the Discussion because I'm totally overhauling that. And I need to remember to meet with the professor in the psych department I talked to about internships before Thanksgiving, since... there's not very much time left to talk to her before winter break, and I wanted to talk to her now so I can start doing stuff over break. And I need to ask my cog psych professor to look over my paper which is due a week from today. And I need to not forget to participate in the psych studies I signed up for on Thursday and Friday. Which I totally will because omg too much stuff to remember. I'm starting to feel overwhelmed again. I wish I hadn't decided to totally take off Sunday and Monday, because now there's just too many things to keep track of. Oh well. Only 10 days left.
