This is gonna be a shorter update, sorry everyone!
My YouTube account is at last fully up and running (I've got a background and everything!) and I have started filming my first video (don't really know how much of that footage is usable). My camera died mid-way through my intro, so we'll see how Baillie the Vlogger ends up. In the meantime I've been trying to study everything that I can find so that I can prepare myself to classify my first samples. Can't wait to get them into the lab! Below see a sick picture of me almost dying while using PVC cement that I just found :) P.S. The amount of Redbull I've consumed during this project is making me question the chemical integrity of my body right now. Pretty sure I'm roughly 57% water, 15% Redbull and 28% whatever else makes up our bodies. P.P.S. I should definitely be sponsored.

I am currently have some issues with uploading pictures from my computer, but hopefully that problem will be resolved soon! I am so excited to begin my in-field testing, and I know these results will be awesome (we are waiting for a window of at least three sunny days so my results aren't skewed due to rainy weather!)
In the meantime, I have begun the process of drafting my YouTube videos, which I will be creating once school starts. They were initially going to be used to document my journey through this process, but I've instead decided to create a how-to series based on the knowledge I've gained this summer (i.e. PVC cement smells atrocious and you will need a face mask to work with it :) ) I currently have three videos scripted, and I can't wait to get started filming on that too! In summary, a whole lot of Big Stuff is in the works, and I hope to upload some pictures soon! We've done it everyone! I'd like to thank my loyal fans, my wonderful mother, and my complete lack of regard for necessary safety precautions for the completion of this project.
It was certainly an exciting few days. Despite my own faith in my abilities as a master carpenter, I quickly learned that I had almost no idea what I was doing. Several hours of cutting and sanding later, I at last had a frame! Attaching the net has proven to be another challenge entirely, but that too has since worked out and we have begun preliminary testing! So excited to see if this works! I am updating this at work, will provide a more thorough update later! |
