I am a perfectionist and have always had an utter disdain for failure. This has kept me from trying a lot of things in my life. Having finally accepted that failure is a requirement for a fulfilling and diversified life experience, I have created this year long project in an attempt to become comfortable with the idea of failing. This blog chronicles my journey with failure.

Day 292: To EEG or not to EEG.
This girl has got it made. She can just sit there and do nothing. My professor makes us stare at a little dot on a computer screen for 15 minutes. Seriously.
Every Friday, (well, most Fridays), one of my professors at school does EEG experiments. Usually I plan on going, but I usually don't because I ended up being too tired or not feeling well or whatever the case may be.
But today, I had to drop off lab reports to another professor anyways, so I figured I'd go do the EEG thing too. Yay.
Result: I ended up being a co-EEG-runner for my professor. Another girl and I ran the EEG on our professor. I had to literally stick glue through little holes by using a blunt needle. I was scared to death of hurting the poor guy with my blunt needle.
But I didn't hurt him at any point, and we got the EEG to work correctly. And then when it was done, we cleaned out the goo by using a pipe cleaner and water. And that was that. And my professor loaded programming software onto my laptop so that I can learn how to do programming. Sweet!
So I am very glad that I went today to do the EEG thing. Yay!
