bits of me

Spring break is over, and its the last hurrah before finals. The end is finally near-- well, it's april. I am excited and nervous to end my college career in like 7 weeks. I cannot believe it is already over. It went by so quickly... but anyway, I am sitting here having not much work to do, mulling over life decisions (and finishing my laundry, as usual).

April is a lot of things. It was spring break at home, and I visited UC Davis. Nice school, a different change from what I am used to at small schools. Still, the research was interesting and the people and professors seemed nice (keyword: seemed). Family visiting was fun. Seeing my grandmother again was nice, as I hadn't seen her in like 5-6 years or so. Visiting my brother was nice, as well. We had a chance to have some fun, eat lots of food, watch some movies, and just chill for the week. By the way, I started a Yelp account, so I have some good reviews I visited over the week. I don't know how often I would Yelp, as there isn't much good Yelping to do at school, but maybe later I will keep it up. But in other news,...

Spring is here, sort-of. The weather is getting better, slightly, but the rain still lingers. At least it is starting to consistently get sunny and (hopefully) warmer. But spring also means..... Allergies!. My worst part of this season... I hate the stuffy-runny-sneezy-itchy-nose feeling that dries my eyes and makes them itch. It just sucks when I wake up at like 4 AM unable to sleep due to stuffy/runny/clogged up nose... The bright side of this is that I can slowly start wearing flip flops and shorts. However, I still have to wear pants and shoes in lab, bleh, but whatever. That was part of the deal as working in a chem lab.

April also means hiring month for schools, which is what I am waiting for... all those weeks of waiting and sending out resumes and letters. I bet I will have to do some more of that, as well in the coming weeks. But on top of that, I still have to figure out if my life points me in the direction of graduate school. Does it? I still have to figure out my life and whether I want to spend the next four years possibly working towards a PhD in chemistry. *sigh*

Well, I probably should sleep soon, as I need to wake up for class tomorrow. And so it begins (or ends?)...
