The start of my YouTube career! Haha! Don't laugh, I tried! The video is live! At least it's done and now we can only get better, right? I haven't posted it to the big bad Facebook page yet; just waiting for the most opportune time! I've waited this long, I can wait a bit longer 😉
By wait, I mean after my second statistics test today :O This ones "easier", only 50 questions! But still, numbers, samples, correlation coefficients, always scary! I feel way better about it all than in the beginning of the semester. Once you get into the flow of things, you just want to keep going until you're done and as we're at midterm week, I'm halfway there!
Cheers to the weekend, I see warm temps, but clouds, rain, and thunder on the forecast for NJ! Stay safe, have fun, cook food!
