Yay summer.
May. 29th, 2006 03:54 pmI know I have been spending a lot of time complaining and/or worrying about not doing a lot this summer, but I've realized recently that stuff happens even when you don't plan it. :P Thankfully, life does not stop because you're relaxing at home. I'm sure some of you will be relieved to hear that.
I got to witness George getting kicked out of Aeropostale yesterday, because he was doing research for his music essay. They were really impatient and accused him of soliciting. It really did not seem like he was causing much harm. He was just going around to clothing stores with target clients, and seeing if music preferences were easily predicted through taste in clothing. I guess I can understand people getting irritated at his questions, but he was being really polite about it, and most people really did not seem to mind. I mean, he even asked two employees at Aeropostale about the type of music they listen to, and they didn't seem to mind at all. It was a manager who came and asked him to leave. >.< Talk about social norms...
I am also officially addicted to two things: Evergrace, a really silly PS2 RPG that allows you to customize your character's look a lot, and the Red Dwarf novels. I'm almost done with the second novel, and my plan after that is to start a certain fantasy novel that a certain eager person is expecting me to read. You know who you are. ;P
I have been spending some time trying to line up research at MHC for sometime next year. Unfortunately, it hasn't been going as well as I'd like. Seems like there are many many biology students need positions, and some of the most popular profs are either retiring or going on leave next year. >.< Still, the professor I contacted said to just keep trying, and I'll find something I'll be happy with. I guess I can try contacting my genetics profs next...but the thought that I'm too late is seriously dissuading me. Still, it doesn't hurt to try! :)
