Yesterday. my group and I met in the library to put the finishing touches on our presentation. Everyone got their pictures around and sent to Anna so she could finish the Power Point. And I logged onto our account on surveymonkey.com so that we could talk about that in our presentation. We were the first ones in class to give our presentations and I think it went okay. I know some of my group members, including myself, could have talk longer so that there wasn't that awkward pause while waiting for the slide to change but it's over and done with now. I also feel like I shouldn't have talked so fast. The group that went after us did pretty well also. Their Power Point was very neat and organized and I feel that they got their thesis across pretty well. I look forward to seeing the rest of the class's presentations.

Today instead of going to class, my group and I went to the library to work on our group project. We sent out our survey about the library, started our slideshow and caught up on all the other loose ends we needed to finish. We also decided to meet again on Monday to finalize our project. I also sent my interview summary that was due today so I got that finished up. This project snuck up on me faster than I thought it would. I felt like my group could have used a little more time to get it done, but we made do with the time we were allotted.

Today in class we finally turned in our annotated bibliography. Although I think it was a helpful assignment, I did not enjoy doing it. I do realize it was a necessary assignment. I have, however, enjoyed working on the observation part of the group project. A friend of mine and I went to the library Monday night to do our observations. I saw things I expected to see, like study groups and people working on computers. I also saw things I didn't expect to see, such as people meeting friends there before going on to somewhere else, and people on Facebook on the computers. Then, in class we discussed our observations and my group members and I got a lot of the same observations but our observations also varied. I am very much enjoying working on this group assignment!
