i got another job. i'm cooking polymers for the other organic professor who i'm not already doing research for. $8.00/hr from her grant while learning how to actually conduct new useful reactions. that makes 4 jobs and 12 hours of upper level chemistry and physics to keep up with. all work and no play may make me dull boy but this oversized load carries less of a losing-my-mind risk because i'm used to biting off too much. i do it habitually.
the beginning of my last year kicked off quietly and anticlimactically which is fine. it has progressed into a couple days a week chemistry and physics homework until i go to bed. and i play lab every afternoon. mondays - polymer research, tuesdays - organic lab ta, wednesdays organometallic research, thursdays physics lab, fridays instrumental analysis lab. and then of course i do my study group for organic lecture... but its the second time around and the only difference is the larger number of constituents since the classes are larger in the fall than summer. other than that i'm painting a picture when i get a chance and drinking irresponsibly on weekends. i lift weights only 3 days a week and .... i guess thats about all i do.
i took the GRE a couple weeks ago and came out with a below what i needed score. it was very disappointing. i'll have to actually study for it and take it again since i've never taken the classes that the material on it actually comes from. gotta find time to do that and apply to graduate programs for next year.
