pre-presentation time

Today I've been working on making a concept map for my presentation at the end of the internship. At the beginning I was way to specific so Carrie and I went through it to make it more general and easy to follow.
I also sorted out the information I have recieved from Mariam (my Kuwait friend) and it is alot of very useful information.
Monday, Carrie wont be here but I'm going to the aquaculture center so that should be good.
Have a good one.

People from Kuwait

Today was really good for me.
Not only did I get done (for the most part) my fish kill story and my fish kill map but I found out things from the girl from Kuwait.
Her grandmother helped as well because she's been there for so long. It's alot of stuff to explain but apparently fishing is just a hobby now there and their climate is changing extremely.
yesterday, I'm not sure if I wrote in this yesterday but I went to a seminar and I figured out a good thing about Kuwait's sand storms.
I feel like I'm making really good progress on my people section of this project =)
Monday I go to the aquaculture center, time to get out of the office!

my progress...

So here's a list of what I have done with my 1/2 of an internship
-researched and read up
-graphs on: imports, exports, landing catch
- collected data we're looking at in organized form
- map for fish kills
- resources for fish kills
I think I'm doing good
I have to admit that these three and 1/2 weeks have kind of dragged on but hopefully they will get better when I start getting out of the office. I don't like sitting in here all day but there really isn't much else I can do. I plan on going to the Darling Marine Center and the aquaculture area on campus.
I still have yet to get the information I need from the different countries, I'm trying but only a few people will talk to me and they don't even know what I'm talking about so I don't really have an opinion on the issues.

Productive?

I don't feel like I got far today.
I tried to do my map on google earth but that blew up in my face and I had to start over. Then Carrie sent me back comments on my descriptions, which I thought I had done better on. I guess I don't have very good science grammar.
Today was a move an inch day but Carrie said by learning more about my graphs and what causes those results I was more productive than I thought.
I haven't got any word back from my friend from Kuwait, I hope by monday I will.
Have a good weekend.

Fish kills

Today was alot of information and putting it all together like I used to do.
I'm trying to make sure I get fish kills and where they were and all about them in the Indian Ocean. Hopefully mine and Carrie's idea to put these on google earth will help to make it more interactive and interesting.
I realized these have been getting shorter, I'm doing just as much work but I think I've already wrote about it.
Tomarrow is friday!!! =) and payday ;)
have a good one

I hate quiet days

today I researched more about fish kills and gonu
I also talked to some people from Kuwait
One answered but he didn't know what was going on because he moved there from America
and the girl hasn't answered yet
That's about it for today
It was slow and quiet
Nothing exciting

Mission Accomplished

My graphs and their descriptions are complete! wahoo!
Now I'm just watching the clock for the end of the day because I didn't really wanna start something today that I'm gonna stop right in the middle of. Tomarrow I will start working on fish kills in the Arabian Sea.
The kids that I have been talking to kind of came to a dead end so I've been trying to get ahold of new people. I'm hoping it will all work out.
Not much to say really.
Going to see my best friend, good break from work.
Have a good one.
