If you've read some of my previous blogs, you probably already know that I'm a member of Dr. Bohannon's psychology research lab. I've written about various conferences in different cities and all of the fun stuff we get to do as a result of our hard work. Well, not only do we meet up...

As promised, I have pictures from my trip to San Francisco this weekend! It was absolutely amazing... not only did my lab members and I get to see numerous presentations on what's hot in psychology right now, but we also had ample free time to explore the city and have some fun. Here are a few pics...

I'll be leaving my apartment bright and early tomorrow morning (6:00 AM!) to fly out to San Francisco for APS! This psychology conference will be a bit different than previous years because some members of the Butler psych department other than my particular lab are also attending! Another one of...

I've been focusing on some countdowns to get me through this terribly dull start to my summer. Let me tell you, there's not much to do in New Pal, so I have basically been spending my days sitting around, watching TV, doing laundry, sitting around more with friends, unpacking, etc. But luckily...

One of the psych courses I've been taking this semester is Cognitive Psychology. This branch of psychology looks at mental processes, or how information is represented in the brain. Cognitive researchers examine how people think, perceive, remember, and learn. I guess when I think of the term "psychology"...

I don't know if I've mentioned this in any previous blogs, but this summer I'll be staying at Butler to work on my psychology research! Butler Summer Institute (BSI) is a program that offers grants to student researchers in both science related and non-science fields. 30 total students get...

Last weekend I traveled to New Orleans with my psychology research lab for SEPA, a convention full of poster presentations and speeches on various aspects of psychology. I know I've talked a bit about my conferences in previous blogs, but if you haven't heard about them before, I'll give...

So the past week has been absolutely crazy for me. In between practices, homework, and tests I feel like I haven't been able to breathe for awhile. Other than being crazy busy, it has been a wonderful week full of really cool stuff. :) For instance, the election...and of course the election results...

Last week I got to head over to the Indianapolis Zoo with my Experimental Psychology class! Our professor, Dr. Dale, works with the elephants there and took our class to run a few studies of our own. We got to go back behind the usual viewing area to where they keep the elephants to watch behaviors and...

So finally, fall break is here! :) I have been so ready for a break...so this feels wonderful! The only problem is that while I'm here I have to write a paper and work on a speech....but I can fall asleep on my couch watching tv with my family again, which I love. Something else that I really appreciate...

The title of this blog pretty much sums up my life right now. I feel like I've been running around doing a hundred things this week, and I'm about to explode! So here I am, finally done with classes for the weekend... you would think I'd be glad that it's all over, right? Well I am, somewhat...

If you've read some of my previous blogs, you've probably seen a few pictures and stories from the psychology conferences I went to this spring, SEPA and APS. In the past I've just gone along with my lab group to these meetings, taking in what I could about the world of research in psychology...

Last week I traveled up to Chicago with my research group from Butler for the APS (Association for Psychological Science) convention. If you've looked through some of my previous blogs, you've probably read about my trip to Charlotte in March for the SEPA conference. APS is very similar to SEPA;...

This year, my spring break was a bit different than usual. Last Thursday, I left Butler a few days early to fly out to North Carolina. Instead of hanging out and relaxing on the beach, however, my “vacation” was full of lectures and poster presentations. The Southeastern Psychological Association Conference...

When I was a little kid, my mom used to tell me I should be a lawyer when I grew up, because I was always arguing. I'm not prelaw, but I still love a good debate, and for some reason this week has been full of them. I wrote about several different debates, but I've organized them so you can just...
