Day 3
July 11th, 2012
Today I spent my day getting lost in the terminal of my wonderful Mac laptop that I can barely use!! I learned how to open ds9 (used to enhance photographs of galaxies) using xgterm, and how to run it from there. It was almost too much for my enormously geeky brain to stand!! I also got free pizza today. It was delicious.

Days 1 and 2
July 10th, 2012
So far, I've attended three meetings in which I had not the slightest idea what the HECK was going on. As in, forget the deep end, I went from the kiddie pool to the middle of the ocean. It's been fun though- and everybody seems to be really nice and helpful. And the things I've done so far have been pretty interesting. Getting up to speed with everything has been intense, but the people I'm working with are great! At least I think they are... between the enormous astronomy words and the accents, it's pretty hard to tell!
