The clay has now been drying in my garage for about a week now, so I'm very excited that the process is developing nicely. Mr. Sheidenhelm didn't know much about working with clay but he just kind of chilled and gave me some pointers when he could. We also spent a long time, correspondingly, talking about my presentation and the importatn similarities and differences between a person with a psychopathic tendency, a violent tendency, and a comparitivly "normal" tendency. Most of my trouble now is with finding the time to finish up my hours with Dr. S, and completing my displays. As AP and college exams near, I'm finding myself spread very thin, especially with Dr. S's tight schedule. I've really loved getting to physically demonstrate the graveness of the differences in these different kinds of "people." One thing I've always known is that murderers and rapists must have some kind of capacity or "guts" that I simply don't have. It's just been fascinating to finally find out the true biology and neurology behind the criminal mind.
