My guilty pleasure - America's Next Top Model (and jellybeans but everyone already knows that)
I think I watch it more because I like making fun of the stupid things Tyra says. "You need to be fierce and angry but soft and gentle....hold your emotion on your face but don't let your face have too much emotion" Tyra, what a wise and worldly sage you are.
So I've decided to become a jet-setter this summer. My plans are as follows: (prepare to be jealous)
May 12 - 21: Acadia, ME for a field ecology course!
May 28 - June 3: ASK Alum retreat and pampering by the parents in MD
June 21 - July 13: Field work in Northern California. Redwood and wine country here I come!
July 13 - July 23: Stickleback Molecular Short Course at Stanford. Big Effing Deal
August 9 - 14: International Society for Behavioral Ecology Conference at Cornell. Another Big Effing Deal
Whew. ANNNNND my birthday is thrown in there (June 29th) so I pretty much expect everyone to fly out to California and drink a bottle of wine with me. Or else you're dead to me.
I finally filled out another punch card from Espresso Royale so that means today I get a FREE COFFEE! I think I'm going to go a little bonkers and get a latte with an extra shot. I have a lot to get done today. Hopefully I can do all my work on the quad since it's so nice outside!
After spending all my money in NYC, I am very thankful for all the terrible free food I can receive through the university. Yesterday I ate some old yogurt I found in our lab fridge for breakfast. Then we got free pizza at lunchomics (and I took all the leftovers to hold me over for the rest of the week) and THEN I had a meeting where we had food afterwards that included skrimps, phylo square things and coconut!
I went about 4 weeks at one point without going food shopping before, this time I'm trying to make it 5. So far I'm at week two....
So I finally leave the Midwest to visit NYC this past weekend and of course, the coolest thing happens - AN EARTHQUAKE!
WTF?! All I have to say is I better see a tornado at some point to make up for it (from afar of course).
