Ramblings of a Wayward Mind...

Sometimes when I sit too long I get restless. Not the kind of restless where I think, “I should watch a movie, read a book or eat a snack maybe.” The kind of restless where I get worried about things that are in no way relevant to the moment.

Im worried about graduate school right now. Yes, right now…at 4:43 while I wait for Ann to finish Spanish homework so we can go drown our anxiety in French fries and milkshakes.

Im going home tomm so that my dad can hook me up with tax software and FAFSA information, even though I know that the government won’t give me anything.

On the other hand I have super exciting news!

AWESOME research opportunities for Jenell:

1. Summer at UC San Francisco doing research. They pay me too! I find out next month…SOO SOO excited.

2. Working with Klein, my academic hero as a research assistant next quarter in a deception paradigm study (why do old people really believe that an exiled prince from Nigeria needs their help) and next year probably on a prosopagnosia study (people who can’t recognize faces, often including their own). I would really like to work with him on a self perception/memory study, but Im not sure if he’ll go for that yet.

3. Working with Revlin on an Anaphoric reasoning task. That’s exciting because I just asked a question in class today, he was like “WOW, we should test that” so I talked to him after class and now next quarter, awesomeness in the making.

4. Im currently working on this social contagion study, but the person who set it up is not interested in our feedback, so its not working out that well. On the other time I get to be a deceptive confederate and that ROCKS SOCKS OFF! Im soo sneaky.

It was super hot here and I was totally working on my tan, and now it is cloudy and that makes me sad. I need a new bathing suit anyways…this gives me an excuse to find one that rocks.

Alright…Im out.
I love you all!
Jenell

PS...I'm trying to be fair because I want you all to update all the time so I have something with which to entertain myself, but I never do it myself...Im trying to be fair now though!
