doin science!
Started work this week. We are analyzing spectra from protoplanetary disks. I hate that we have to use macs. There is no reason we use them other than my professor being a fangirl. Macs are fucking awful.
I do most of my work in a unix terminal and write programs in IDL. I've only ever programmed in java, so I'm getting used to it. My superior is a grad student named Logan, who seems knowledgeable and fair. My project partner Nathan who is also supposed to work fulltime is a fucking slacker already. Monday he only came in for a few hours. Yesterday we waited all day for him, only for him to take a ,"personal day" the second fucking day of work! Today he strolled in 40 minutes late and takes smoke breaks every hour. Wtf. This guy sucks. I can tell I will be dealing with his lazy ass all summer.
