+ Here is a picture of the obstacle course that I will be running with SPOT. You can see SPOT laying down on the right side in the back. The blue crates in the back are off limits to students, so I will only be using the obstacle with the 15-degree ramp and offset flooring for various slip situations.

 ==== Self Lesson ====
-I learned to start trusting myself, my skills, and my work better. I think we all have some form or degree of impostor syndrome and sometimes mine gets the better of me. But being here among some of the smartest people I have ever met, and in one of the most renowned research centers in the world, has made me feel a little bit better about my skills and what I can bring to the table.
+This week I learned to trust myself, my skills, and work ethics more. Everyone has some degree of impostor syndrome and sometimes I let mine get the better of me. But being among some of the most talented and smartest people I have ever met, as well as being in a place that is so renowned for research makes me feel a little better about myself and what I can accomplish.
 ==== Technical Projects =====
-As of right now, I don't officially have my project that I will be focusing on. This last week has been busy with building some of the omni drone tests for a tour that we had for VIP's from NIST and the FBI. Of that tour, I gave a demonstration of walking SPOT (Quadriped from Boston Dynamics) over the obstacle course that is built here at the lab to test robotic dexterity and material traversal. I only had about 20-30 minutes of prior experience walking SPOT before this demonstration. This summer I will continue to hone my skills with this obstacle course, and by doing so I will also be tracking my progress in order to give a better understanding of what the standard run time for this course should be.
