we're in amsterdam!


we've all been in amsterdam for over three weeks now. everyone is in the final stages of their projects, we have our practice conference tomorrow and everyone seems pretty stressed out. but so far it's been really fun.

mark and my research has gone really well, we came in with an open project topic and the collection of the data went pretty well. I think staying open to new information and allowing ourselves to focus on areas that we found the most interesting let us stay positive and not caught up and resentful of the structure of our research.

the trip has been great! i've gotten to know some really great people, and we've all had fun going out and on excursions all over. the program will be over on saturday which is pretty sad, but hopefully it'll continue next year and other people will be able to come back and study in the freakin amazing city of amsterdam
