WHAT A WAY TO GO GREEN!! Now only if they could have created this WITHOUT the emphasis on the drive through……total paradox

Containers reused as coffee shop? Nice.
Built as a drive-through to encourage car culture? Terrible.
拿貨櫃改建為咖啡館?很好。
建成得來速鼓勵汽車文化?糟透了。

Let's stay together in 2012!! OBAMA (LOVE this!!)

President Obama paying homage to the GREAT Rev. Al Green!! I SO love him for doing this if nothing else.

On a LIGHTER note, this video is HILARIOUS!!

// And now comes the self-doubting…..Rambling!//

Ugh…

Now that I made the decision to join this lab in Micro, I am now doubting my decision. This, I assume, is stemming from the anxiety I feel about starting in the lab again as I have been out of the lab for about a year now - that is centuries in lab time. 

Ultimately it comes down to this: is attaining this degree really worth the upcoming 3 - 3.5 years of my life?! I mean like really - I better have my DREAM job waiting for me at the end of this journey. I guess my main concern is that I don’t want to spend the prime of my youth stressed and crazed! By the time I finish, I will be 28-29 and will want to start having kids right away (with my soon to be husband of course :-) )…AHHHHHHHHHHH……so many things to think about.

And it doesn’t help that I have severe insomnia. I guess I will just breathe for now and then just take it as it comes without losing my mind.

// One of the Most Important Decisions - Made!//

Well - 

I officially joined a laboratory in Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics - a department I thought I would never join! Not only is it a subject area I have no expertise in, but it also happens to be the hardest department in the entire graduate school!!! FML - no-j/k…

The PI of the laboratory is pretty awesome and a really nice guy. I truly believe once I get into the science - everything will fall into place. It is a proteomics lab, and hopefully my biochemistry background will serve me well. I will work hard and give it my best shot! 

So….as anxious as I am about starting - I am relieved that I made this decision.Let’s see how this goes…

Curl Chemistry....

I LOVE implementing Chemistry into everyday life as much as I can - and I came across this cool article! LOVES IT! Click on “Curl Chemistry” to access the article

// Hmmm….I wonder//

In the midst of the upcoming craziness - I am going to find time to take a photography class. About time I awake my creative genius that has been lying dormant these past couple of years - who knows, it may positively impact my science!

// Mothers - gotta love ‘em!//

I love talking to my mom - she is a wonderful lady. But sometimes, I feel like “Ma, are you listening to me? What are you talking about?” Oh, what would I do without her!
