I’m on the train going to Amsterdam for the second part of my project. I must say I wasn’t really looking forward to it. Not so much going to Amsterdam but doing all the measuring for a whole week. It’s pretty intense somehow, it cages you… I’ve also discovered that it’s a hell of a lot of work to get the data right. So most of the week I’ll be struggling with data. I’m still behind with my Breda data 🙁 It’s all just going so slooooooooooooow. But I’ll try and be more organized this time. I’ll try to sort the data as soon as I’ve collected it and put it on my computer. This is especially handy for the GPS data. I’ll have to stick with the days for that one because the files are so long it takes ages to select say, half a day.
Yesterday as I was packing my things I had the bright idea to install the Suunto software on my laptop to see if it would work. Well… it didn’t. It was 7 pm and the most important piece of software wasn’t working. I tried everything. Even installing service pack 3. That resolved one problem but now I just get an ‘Abnormal program termination’ error. Meaning that the software just didn’t start. I wrecked my brain and finally decided to try and install the software on my old Sony laptop. It worked! But I do have to drag two laptops to Amsterdam. My bags were so heavy! But now I’m on the train, doing my measuring and I feel more relaxed. It will be fine this week.
