This week I worked on putting together data from multiple papers. I collected O/H and C/O ratio abundances for one table in a text file. Then I converted the table to a latex and fits format. It was relatively simple but there was a lot of papers to look at.

There is no way for words on a screen to give this week justice. Not to be dramatic, but this week is one that I will remember for the rest of my life. This week I attended the AAPT Summer Meeting in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I drove with Mark (my mentor) and arrived on Sunday night.

This week my mentor and I got the code running which means I now have a large excel sheet of all the data I need! I manually checked 5 colleges/universities and it seems to have all the correct information.

This week started off with 4th of July celebrations, so Monday was a day off from work. I have enjoyed the festivities quite a bit during the last couple of years at Colgate, but I was very excited to experience it in the middle of the political capital of the U.S.

Hi y’all! Last week’s blog was a real bummer, so as a palette cleanser, this week I’m going to talk about the phone calls we receive in Congressman Foster’s office.

This week, I am writing this blog post from my new spot along the Potomac! Rock Creek park extends near our apartment building, and it has become one of my favorite spaces to come run or just hang out. The sunset here is beautiful, and the people-watching is even better.

Work this week was mostly looking at code and understanding how it works. At the end I spent time putting together tables that I would be needing for the last few weeks. Wasn’t super exciting work but it was nice to finally understand the code that I have been looking at for a couple weeks.

Monday was the 4th of July! A lot of us went to the National Mall and had fantastic seats right under the Washington Monument to see the fireworks display over the reflecting pool.
