Habit Research

Habits are controlled by the IL cortex of the brain. So when someone says that habits free up space in your brain that isn’t true. In studies with rats turning off the IL cortex also turned off the habit they have been trained to do. 

It is also proven that the IL cortex favors new habits over old ones so it is very difficult to go back on old habits. 

— Studies from MIT

Experts say it actually only takes 21 days to break a habit, the same time it takes patients who loose appendages to remember and realize they do not have their appendage there.

Definitions of a Habit

• a usual way of behaving : something that a person does often in a regular and repeated way
• : a strong need to use a drug, to smoke cigarettes, etc.
• : a piece of clothing worn by members of a religious group

Game Process

I feel like our game process was pretty good. We definitely started very strong. We had some really great ideas and we had some good process narrowing it down. The original game we were going to make I feel like was much stronger. It was just complicated and we couldn't agree on it.  After that though everyone in the group was super nice and we all got on well. The final game we made is pretty good. Although Jayhawk ink messed up a lot of are printing which is disappointing.

Fav Infographic

One blog post that resonated with me was Jenny's infographic about the difference in pay for female national soccer players versus men. I really appreciated the flow of the info graphic. There was no point where I didn't want to know the information that I was being given so it was paced super well. I really appreciated the depth of information she had. When I first heard her topic I was like, how is she gonna make a whole info graphic about that it seems to narrow. She did a great job though. I wish it had looked more like a soccer info graphic, but none the less the design was super clean and nice. I wish maybe statistics for other country's teams would have been included at the end. I would have found that interesting. It definitely inspired me to look more into the pay gap for female athletes specifically.

Infographic Thesis

Thesis: The world has been dominated by men politically for centuries. Women are now finally making a dent in politics throughout the world, ruling just as capably as men. While women are making headway, they still make up less than 10 percent of the world political population, and to have truly equal, well-rounded and fair representation this needs to change.

_ Type up the 30 - 45 seconds of the speech so you have it as text on an 8.5 x 11 sheet.
