Yesterday we spent a lot of the morning playing "assassin" with nerf guns around the building, until we (unfortunately) had to stop because we were being disruptive. It was still a lot of fun! Today I was going to help Cassie and Nadya measure tomato plants but I was unable to go because I had to set up to get direct deposit. I also got some tasks from Jake to complete. Tomorrow I'm bringing my friend Melissa into work with me.

Just another slow day, working on some research on black holes and stuff. Hung out in some of the other labs and helped plan out for our game of assassin on Wednesday. Jake should be here tomorrow so hopefully he will have some different work for me to do.

Yesterday I labeled body parts on photos for Vlad, and I had to leave for 2 hours to take my road test and went to lunch. Came back to the cookout with all other interns and talked with them, and then didn't do a lot for the rest of the day. Dr. Jake isn't here for now so at the moment I don't have any work to do.

Had another slow day again yesterday. Attempted to learn how to use IDL, but it was pretty hard and I will need some help. Did some background research on super massive black holes and active galactic nuclei. Enjoyed the free pizza for lunch in the fishbowl!

Met with all the college students in my lab today, picked a project on super massive black holes to help work on. Ate lunch at Global Village with the other interns. Not a lot to do but read about quasars and active galactic nuclei.
