Moonie's Ramblings

[Prof. Moonie]

It's hard to believe that it's already been year since I started watching Ellen. Ellen's started her 12 Days of Giveaways. She was doing that when I first started watching her show. 3nodding Wow... amazing how fast time passes by.  

[Prof. Moonie]

*tries to think of a location to use for the suburban aspect for her lab this Friday* We're going to measure the percent of impervious surface coverage in three regions - an urban, suburban, and the area around our house. Obviously the home one is already taken care of. I'm going to be using 221B Baker Street, London, UK - the home of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson - for my urban area. Now I just have to figure out a suburban area... *sighs*  

[Prof. Moonie]

Originally I was going to do three areas around here... but then I changed my mind today, lol.  

[Prof. Moonie]

La di da...  

[Prof. Moonie]

Still trying to think of a location... and I want a location where I have an actual address to use, like how I have the address for my home and Holmes' place.  

[Prof. Moonie]

*sighs* I'll figure out the suburban location later...  

[Prof. Moonie]

Going to go read Act III of The Tempest for my Shakespeare class. Be back in a bit.  

[Prof. Moonie]

I'm back. And with a cup of hot black tea too. 3nodding I saw that there was a stray tea package, so I decided to have it. xd

Anyway, I'm done with homework.  

[Prof. Moonie]

Going to go through and do the editing to the observation paper, so that it's done and what not. 3nodding I'm really pleased with the response I got from the writing center this time around.  

[Prof. Moonie]

Bloody hell! How many times do I need to go through this paper in order to shorten it down to 4 pages of text?! *sighs* Hopefully another round through will be able to shorten it to the length I want. whee  

[Prof. Moonie]

Yay! I did it!  

[Prof. Moonie]

Now I know why authors continue to have their piece edited over and over again. It's amazing how many things you keep skimming over despite reading it aloud over and over again.

Like right now I'm checking to make sure that I address all of my sources, and I realized there was certain in-text citation that I needed to change - I was addressing the same author but different sources. Because the author is the same, I didn't need to include the author's name when changing sources - because it's the same author. Glad I caught on to that. I even made a note on my rough draft mentioning it - in case my teacher is questioning about it, lol.  

[Prof. Moonie]

*continues drinking her now cold tea* xd  

[Prof. Moonie]

Woot! Finally done with my project and I even printed it all out. So it's all together and ready. Ended up having to go with an ideal clamp to hold my collection of papers together. xd

 

[Prof. Moonie]

Tomorrow I'll be starting the 30 Day Photo Challenge on Facebook. 3nodding I've gotten almost all of the pictures already picked out and ready. There's just two that I'll have to do on the day it occurs because it relates to whatever I'm doing at that time. And the other two I still have to figure out what picture I want to use for them.
