It's Been A Month, Here's What I Have Learned

Progress has been very slow and i don't mean data collecting- that I can do on my own time and gets done as soon as possible.

I mean applying to be a volunteer at the Phoenix Children's Hospital. Just to give some sort of idea, I started this application process in late February and now its mid-April. To be fair, I will be working with children which involves a delicate approach in creating a bearable atmosphere for them, that shouldn't come in just weeks. I'm going to have to work on this project even after I give my deliverable and presentation. The worry is now what do I present?

Even though data collecting isn't the major problem, it does prove tedious work as you are sifting through digits and values on a screen to find some sort of correlation. It has to be organized so that when you stop sifting and start looking broadly it should be easily understood and accessible.

Data creates the project, there is no stopping it. Manipulation of data doesn't mean changing data (that's fraud research) but using specific parts of the data to prove some point. You can do it in many ways and I'm still learning.

Keeping up blogging is hard work. I've gone through training that doesnt allow to disclose many things, so I have to be careful of what I'm saying. There's multiple things I must leave out and I'm trying to find snips and pieces that I could post.

4/16- I've collected some photos and videos to share which will be uploaded soon.
