Not much new here. I have been thinking a lot about what my upcoming semester will be like. I'm going into a lab that isn't incredibly friendly, and that's sad. Granted I'm not the life of the party, but I don't think I would ever blow somebody off or not be friendly. So I'm wondering how nice people will end up being, because right now all I have are first impressions. I just hope it's not all work and no play, but I could deal with it if it was.
Reasons I want to work in this lab: synthetic chemistry should be the most helpful line of organic chemistry for the career I want (pharmaceutical R&D), the advisor is extremely reputable, and I think this lab will best prepare me for the world, and the knowledge I gain will be the best and most helpful in my future career. Downsides: I may end up graduating later and spending more time in the lab than if I chose another lab.
I've been studying and working out and we went to the beach yesterday. I guess Hawaii has its advantages. I wanted to go for a hike, but Tim wasn't up for it. As of late Thursday afternoon, I will have 3 days to actually relax before I start school next Monday! 3 days. Tuesday through Thursday I have to take like 4 1-1/2 hour exams each day. Yuck! What I wouldn't give for another month of downtime. The way I did my college I haven't even gotten so much as a summer off in between semesters. I kind of wish I could start next fall to take some time to myself, but it's to late for that. :( I really want to scrapbook today instead of studying. I just have one page to do, but I would have to go get the pictures printed and go to this great scrapbooking store. Those places are so great. I can't wait to get some pictures that I could put with a disney theme or hello kitty.
