so i went back to work yesterday.
haven't seen bret in around 10 days, i think he missed me. working there is a lot different from working with krishna. everyone here is pretty much completely independent, most people don't have more than one lab tech or at most a phd student while krishna had a ton of undergrads, postdocs and techs. back then we'd fight over the cd player what with gino and his country music and niru with her bhangra - now i only have myself to talk to. am enjoying my work a lot more though, genetics really didn't interest me and now i'm working on something which really interests me. now if only my clones would grow everything would be perfect.
it was nice to get back to my lab, i think i enjoy playing piano for a parallel reason - i need something to keep my fingers busy and at the same time it keeps my brain focused and occupied and not thinking and processing and wondering and worrying. work's going well, bret seems happy with the progres i am making but i feel i could push myself harder and will probably when i get back to school. now i worry about beating traffic but when i live at clairmont it'll be a lot easier to pop in whenever i feel like it. i'll have to get my badge adjusted so i can work at night and on weekends. it was nice to be able to do that when i worked in whitehead and last semester i'd go to the schwartz when i needed to clear my head.
so the mcat will probably be on the 28th. suck. was hoping to catch Hero on the 27th and i'll be busy catching up with people and with classes that i'll be hard-pressed to find time to study. and i do need to study. i hate physics. why didn't they include a pure science like anthropology?
one last shoutout! to mgafm before i go to bed. *shoutout!*
