relaxation?
ah relaxation what the hell is that exactly?
Even though honours is done I seem to be so damn busy that I have no time for myself. I guess I just make myself busy with everything going on around me. This week I have a glider workshop to present and am probably running a wildlife necropsy workshop (if ethics comes through in time). Working, marking lots of prac books, there are about 100 external students that need to be marked...CRAZY
I wrote a job application this weekend for a terrestrial fauna ecologist position at my work. So I hope I get an interview and get a job. One of the directors asked my boss to get me to apply so fingers crossed. If I get an interview I would need to talk to them about potentially doing it part time or something so I can continue to study and get my PhD going. Phd ideas are out there too, we have two potential ideas right now but not sure about funding etc. I may study species in new guinea or look at the fate of animals from habitat clearing.
Last week I also got some good news. The prof that marked my thesis approached my supervisor about talking to the RSPCA about maybe getting funding to do some further welfare research. He was meeting with a research rep the following day so cant wait to find out about that. I think he thought my honours research was quite interesting which is good. I worked really hard on it.
Torres Strait trip is coming up soon to do more rodent work and we should have more time this time to go fishing and snorkeling!
Apart from that nothing else is happening apart from me being a crazy girl and trying to identify frog calls and other random things in my "spare" time hahaha
