hello feel good.

My first biochem test of the semester is done! AND I feel good about it! I've been stressing because well, biochem is a ton of work and it's my major so if I don't do well in it, that would suck. Anyway I feel good about the test and I think I did pretty well. B+ for sure. Ok, well I'd hate to be TOO confident, but I did pretty well. 10 minute trainer is coming along swimmingly and I'm feeling better. OH and my meeting with my professor went well too. He was acting like our meeting was going to be a serious deal and said I needed to take a week to prepare for it, annd it turned out to be nbg. He basically told me that I've been working really hard all semester and had nothing to show for it but a bunch of failed experiments (so true, nothing was working like we wanted it to). He said he felt bad that all of my hard work was going unrewarded so he wanted to switch my project to something else so I can get a paper published. I'm going to get a paper published! So you can google "Lauren Villegas+metal organic frameworks" and read a REALLY interesting paper on tiny crystal structures that store hydrogen in them. I'm making you want to read it aren't I? Oh well, at least I'll be able to write on my resume that I'm a co-author to a paper that one day might solve the energy crisis in America. Next items on the list, genetics quiz in the a.m. and figure out when I can graduate, where I can finish my final credit hours (cross your fingers for some UTA), who my thesis advisors will be (I need 5!!), and how I can launch myself overseas into a Spanish speaking country doing charity work of some sort. Oh but I'm not stressed anymore... ready set go.
