Wow, so, it's been a busy time...
By Crobar in Neurognosis
March 28, 2008

I did not abandon my poor blog, I've just neglected to update it for a while.  These past few months have been hard.  For those who aren't aware, I'm a graduate student at Texas State in San Marcos.  This semester we were required to take 12 hours of classes (normal full time for a grad student is 9).  Add those classes with all their projects and homework on top of working as well and you have the makings for a very busy schedule.  It's been a bit stressful but it will get better very soon.

Going into April also means going into the last month of the semester.  I also have my idea for my thesis lined out, the equipment I need is on its way and I have my committee chosen.  And over the summer I'll be working with a grad student in the biology department to learn to use the equipment and help out with some lab work - it'll be good experience and I'll make a few extra bucks for summer.  Maybe I could sweettalk my way into a TA position for one of the undergraduate neurobiology courses....maybe.

Anyhow, I still have a lot of things on my plate but I hope to blog much more when the semester is over and summer rolls around.  We shall see.
