Just felt like putting an update in the journal. Things are going well. The apartment in Rochester is great. The kitty is good. I've got a new job which I start on Monday and which I'm a bit nervous about, but still excited. I will still be working at Orbakers though. It's good money and I have some things I need to pay back ( Read more... )

So, sometimes I work my ass off for four days trying to get my poster ready for Sigma Xi, and I finally think it's done on Sunday when I don't hear from Wahl for two days about it. This morning she sends me a frantic e-mail asking me to resend her a bunch of stuff because she forgot it and wants to print off my poster. So I e-mail it to her and ( Read more... )

I have this weird fluttering in my chest. It's become so hard to deal with. I wish everything could be simple again because everyday I lose strength in fighting the battle. I just don't think I can do it for much longer...

We definitely have an apartment! It's very exciting! Everyone will have to come visit :) It's very cute and reasonable price wise. I'm very excited to not have to give Wells anymore of my money. They don't need it since they don't spend it very wisely. Squirt and I go on Tuesday to pick up the keys, sign the contract and start moving in. It's going ( Read more... )

I finished up all my Christmas shopping yesterday. I actually had a lot of fun at the mall shopping with Squirt. Normally I hate shopping. I just have to wrap everything. I was going to do that today, but I'm very tired and I have to be at work at 2:30pm ( Read more... )

Yesterday, all I did was work. I identified all 20 families for my plant project. I worked on that for 4hrs. I analyzed my data for my thesis meeting. I organized all my thesis stuff. I read all of my molecular for my exams this week. Today, I started off the same way, then I TAed lab, and it completely drained me of my motivation. I want it back! ( Read more... )

So basically I just got screwed. The government decided that if you have 120 credits or more, you don't deserve money from them anymore. And they decide that in the middle of the semseter that you now have to pay 2500 more dollars. Money that I don't have. And your finanical aid package doesn't adjust to make up for it. I dont understand how they ( Read more... )

It was nice to get off campus this weekend. I try hard to stay relaxed when I'm on campus, but it's sometimes way too much to deal with. Even on the weekends I never fully relax. I still feel like I'm on a time schedule. This weekend, I relaxed so much that I slept way more than I usually do. It was nice. I like hanging out with Casey's friends at ( Read more... )
