Just wanna sleep for a little while
Jul. 7th, 2009 11:41 pmTorchwood is being AWESOMESAUCE. ( A few comments )
It just turned midnight and I'm actually tired! I think I'm adjusting pretty well to this normal person sleep schedule. Today was very successful - I did my first science in graduate school (omgggg) and it worked very well! It was just a simple beginning of a peptide synthesis, but I've never done it before and it uses a nifty machine and I did it all on my own after being showed once, and it worked! \o/ The girl who was teaching me is really cool - her name's Ashley, she's in her fourth year, and she's just really awesome, helpful and laid back. I like the people in my lab, generally! A good balance of male and female (maybe even more girls), and people are very helpful and friendly, if not the most talkative of folks. I definitely made the right choice of lab. :)
There was a bit of a hiccup when my first bus coming home was late by 6 minutes, so I missed my connection (no bus goes straight from one side of downtown to the other, so I need to get on one bus for literally five minutes, then get off and switch *hands*) and had to take a different route which left me with a 15 minute walk to get home. But then I went out for a run, for the first time in a VERY long time, and even though it was painful it felt like a really good start to something, like I might actually be able to keep it up. I'm really quite unhappy with my weight right now. I was looking at pictures from a couple years ago (even just in Dublin) and I look so much rounder now. Not that I was ever skinny, but. So yeah, I need to slim down, and I figure the summer's the best time to do it, when the weather's pleasant for running and I don't need to make the time to get to a gym.
Oh man, I'm actually sleepy! So with that I bid you goodnight, my dear flist. ♥
