Ah, the first week of the new year! It's been a while since my last blog post, but everything has been looking up. I have just gotten back to Arkansas after spending a couple weeks hanging out with my family and my boyfriend for Christmas and New Years. Those holidays will be covered in a separate post.
It's been quite a busy couple of days. I drove back to AR on the 1st, and I started an intersession class on statistics on the 2nd. Trying to fit all of my returning home activities (picking up stopped mail, grocery shopping, cooking proper meals, and attempting to put away all the stuff I brought back with me) into the hours after the 9-4 class has been a challenge. I have all the important things done now, for the most part, and so I feel like I'm a little more in control of my time. One of the things I've been trying to work on, you can call it a 'resolution' if you want, is to be better about budgeting, both my time and my money. I think I'm off to a decent start with that this year. All in all, I am feeling very optimistic.
My class has been AWESOME. I wasn't sure what to expect from an all day lecture about statistics, but I'm having no trouble staying awake. We haven't gotten to much statistics yet, because we have been covering some basic ground about the philosophy of science, and learning how to use some basic tools in "R". I'm really excited about how simple the program/language is, for a programming language that is. I hope that I will continue comprehending the programming features we've gone over, and I look forward to starting some statistics training tomorrow!
