time
All work and no play makes Wendy a dull girl.
Wait, I am playing too, so that must make her a tired girl.
Ah yes, that's the ticket...tired. That's why the last couple
days at work I've been taking naps in the grass north of the
Life Sciences building at lunch. Lets hope that I don't sleep
too long. So working in the Cordes lab is awesome. As of today
I officially have a verified plasmid: pWI100. For a youthful
biochemist like myself, that is quite the achievment. I finished
up my freshman year pretty well with a 4.0 in 21 credits this
semester. I have to say that Freshman year has been everything
and more than I could ask for. Challenging classes, fantastic
new and old friendships, memorable events documented for all
prosperity, career building achievments and a taste of independence
and responsibility. I've made some great new life-time friends.
It'll be hard to not have Annalyn around anymore but she has
promised to come back for my Birthday next October. I'm all
moved into my new apartment and love it here. The facilities
are very nice and my nice QUEEN sized bed fits beautifully
in the room. I'm all situated and still in my "new apartment-cleaning
mode." So there are beautiful flowers adorning the apartment
and it's perfect for entertaining. *hint hint....my girls
from back home need to visit* Just three and a half more weeks
before I head out on my awesome series of vacations. I head
out on June 18th for the Colorado River and will be shooting
the rapids for 9 days. After that I'll get a chance to relax
on the beautiful beaches of Hawaii for two blissful weeks.
Flying out of Hawaii will take me to the lucious vegitation
of Seattle, WA where I will proceed on a wonderful road trip
through California back to the lovely U of A with my best
friend, Lauren who is finally joining me after many years
apart. I'll finish up the summer with another 5-6 weeks working
in the lab before I begin another challenging year. I'll continue
to post news and pictures as necessary over the summer. Despite
my recent lapses in updates, I now have a bit more time, so
don't worry your pretty little heads.
