So what's new?
Been bumming around. Spilled nutrient broth all over myself in micro-lab. :/ Bacteria smells really nasty, especially E. coli, but I still think that I would really love to research, so that's cool. ^^ It just so happens that that National Institute of Health just gave Wash U. and UMKC $15 million dollars to do a study on heart attacks and such. Dr. Spertus is the head of this project... and it starts next year and goes until 2009.... one year before I graduate! I need to find a way to get involved in this. I guess it may be good that my dad talked me out of the Air Force (yeah... newsflash) because I probably wouldn't be able to do a lot of research in the HPSP and research is something that I'm getting really excited about. So yay for NIH.... maybe I'll get a research fellowship in the far future?
Dream come true. Dream come true.
I need to DO something you guys. I've had all this free time lately... and I'm just like... sleeping... actually hanging out with PEOPLE it is so strange. I hope we get to some exams soon because this new thing called "relaxation and recreation" is just too eerie for words. I have had some time to work on photo-editing for Jesse's Valentine's Day present. ^^ I've always wanted to get professional photos done with Jesse, but after cropping and air brushing, and adding cool light effects and textures to our candids... I realize how gorgeous he makes me feel... even on the ugliest days. I glow when I am with him from the inside out! I will post some of the pictures around Feb. 14th... Wow...It took me forever to learn how to use The Gimp. lol
Today I'm just going to do more bumming.... clean out my frog tank some more, do my laundry, and study some stuff. Tomorrow is the geriatrics seminar at 9 am I think? Hmm maybe I should figure out when and where this is.... ha ha I am so ultra responsible. Like I said in earlier posts (because people so read this... lol) old people are the coolest. I can't wait to start a life history on my mentor.
Every time I go to nursing homes I am always struck with how beautiful everyone is and how significant life becomes. It really puts all of my goals into perspective. Yes, everyone wants to be successful and to make their mark in the world... but as I get older I realize that my greatest career will be motherhood and my biggest legacy my family...
And my biggest accomplishment love. ^^
Yes. Success will be so sweet. ^^
