Life As I Know It.

First update in forever.

I'm relaxing in a coffee shop off campus and have been studying organic nomenclature for the past four hours. I still don't fully understand, but I understand a hell of a lot more.

I take a break to write this due to the new arrival of 3 squawking middle aged, trash talking moms. While almost the whole coffee house is open, they chose the table right near where I've camped out with ochem.

Life has been crazy. I have another full semester this year, and I'm back to two labs: evolutionary biology and ochem. For evobio, I hatefully love my labs. We've been working with fruit flies and violating the migration assumption of the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. While it's nice to obvious results, counting all the flies normally takes between 3-6 hours and needs to be done 3 times a month.
Ochem lab is the worst. I don't see the joy in mixing 5 different solutions that look identical. Has to be done I guess.

My roommate this year has been the best. It's refreshing to have a nice, supportive roommate instead of last year. With the housing lotto coming up before we know it, we plan on rooming together again next year.

A lot of changes have come, and sometimes it's hard to find the door that's been opened. I have the best people in my life though, and they've helped lead me to better opportunities.

Until next time,
K
