I emailed a bunch of people who run labs that are doing stuff that I’m interested in. There’s a guy at UMass Boston and it looks like I have a really good chance of working for him but he told me that the program requires that we go to sea for 3 weeks straight… I don’t know if I can do that…

I don’t know why I put so much effort into decorating a college dorm room but… I think a plant could be a nice touch. I like keeping things around in my workspace that resonate with me on some level other than academically and I think that a plant could work in the same way that my laughing Buddha does… He basically sits on my desk and seeing him there when I look up from my book or my computer screen makes me kind of happy I guess. Yeah, that’s not weird…
This is something I’ve wanted to do for about a year now. It looks like the craziest sport ever. It will also give me a reason to exercise over the summer and then there wouldn’t even be a possibility let alone an excuse for me starting the fall rugby season out of shape next year. Looks hard though!
