second day of school

statistics will, i think, be insufferably boring.

brain lab, on the other hand, will probably kick a lot of ass. today helene and i stuck two electrodes in a cockroach leg and then poked the hairs on it to cause action potentials. we hooked up the amplifier to an oscilloscope and speaker and made video game sound effects by pushing the hairs the wrong way. also we got fancy lab notebooks with stickers inside.

also i had cuban black bean soup today and it was absolutely delicious.

and last night for the second time i had a stressful dream about not being able to catch a plane. i think it mostly focused on taking too much time packing everything. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

i also put contact lenses on my teeth in my dream. and i think rational me was trying to figure out how that helped my vision. i don't think i ever came up with a good explanation.
