I realize how redundantly apologetic I am. And I realize how ridiculous that sounds. So I'll stop.

So basically this summer I've been working as a research assistant in this lab at school, and my fellow experimental friends are:

OH DROSOPHILIA. We worked with them for a long time in AP Bio of course, but that's only because we never did any experiments quite the right way and so we had to do it over and over again. I liked looking at them but the freaking FlyNap was gross. How do you stand it? T_T Or do you use something else?

D'you mean that MyGuests crap? You can turn it off of course. Probably most everyone will turn it off, which makes the feature entirely useless and reveals what a stupid concept it was from the beginning. HAH.

[guppydays]

haha love the usage of scientific name. i have no idea what the fly nap is? is it something you used to knock them out?

haha yea. i turned it on then off and now im not sure what my current setting is. but yea definitely an idea that failed at the start.

Oh, well... FlyNap must be just the commercialized/kiddie/high school version of what is essentially anesthesia, LOL.

hahah i don't know about kiddy. our CO2 pad that knocks 'em out is called a FlowBuddy.

Cynthia!! *glomp*

lol fruit flies! Wow. XD

omgzz I haven't seen HBP yet either! I'm waiting on friends to coordinate their schedules lol. :P Boo.

Yeah rain seems to be the general status around me as well. Even traveling. Although most recently it's just been that humidity and cloudiness - the threat of rain without the actual precipitation. Which imo is grosser in most situations. BLAH.

*muah* Missed you.

[guppydays]

HOLA! *hug*

i know same here. we almost had it down to this past saturday but then something came up. it's strange bc usually its one of those movies that we see as soon as it comes out ya know?

haha the threat of rain that's accompanied by humidity is pretty much the worst of all. unlike post-rain windiness which is pretty awesome.

hope you're doing well Leslie :)

LOL I still haven't seen HBP. At this point idk if I ever will. :P Stupid friends and their stupid full schedules! I wanna catch it before it leaves the IMAX, too.

Hey Cynth *waves*

I remember studying fruit flies in A Level biology.

I still haven't seen HP so you're not alone. :)

Glad you're enjoying the work and having a nice summer.

[guppydays]

I love that you say A Level. That's how all my cousins refer to their classes by O Level or A Level...

Yea it's nice to hear that other people haven't gotten the chance to see HP yet either I guess, haha.

Hope you're having a great summer Jems!

O levels were replaced by GCSE a long time ago but A levels still exist. :)

Summer has been fab (and sunny which is a bonus. :)
