Yep! Ate everything in sight. A hefty per diem made sure of that. It was also fun trying to pick up some Hindi (I was in Delhi mostly). It's great going places where people are so excited for you to be learning their language, and willing to help. It's too bad that the US isn't more like that towards non-native English speakers.

828 days later into working in this lab - if I could go back I'd tell myself to join a different one! but I did end up going to India for a little while, which was a lot of fun. All in all, there are lots of things to be learned from working under insufferable advisors.

(Every few months I remember my hubski account and wonder what my password was, but today I remembered)

Thanks! I'm trying!

It's a biochemistry project having to do with bioremediation. The professor just had a grant approved that has funds for an undergrad (me!) which is awesome because scrounging for funds is never fun. I'd also get to go abroad and work on the research in India some.

Yeah I really hope this research project works out. I've been hunting down this professor trying to force him to schedule a meeting with me for like two weeks. I'm meeting with him soon and we'll see what happens.

New school year started this past week, and I am definitely getting a lot of sleep now. My schedule is really light and I have nothing to do so I just sleep most of the time... BUT it should be getting more time consuming here pretty soon here because I hope to pick up a research project and start doing some work for the study abroad office. Yay involvement!

Thanks!
