I'm rather excited today and I haven't posted in a while so I figured that I'd try and write SOMETHING. So here goes.
I thought when I woke up this morning that today was going to be a shitty day, considering that I had an ecology lab from 12:30 - 3:20 but it turns out that today has probably been the best day all week. My lab TA loves me (as far as I can tell) and my lab partner seems pretty outgoing and like she'll do all of the talking for me when we have to interact (good thing). I was thinking that I'd ask my TA if I could work alone for the quarter because I always get things done so much faster if I don't have to worry about what my partner is doing or whether I'm smiling enough to make them like me. (and they don't throw out or god damned sample, but that's another story).
I'm excited about my TA liking me though because that means she's going to ask me to help out around the lab. It's been my impression that TAs usually choose one "pet" and use them to handle small things that the other students shouldn't have to worry about. I'm happy to do it though because this might be my one chance at an "in" into the biology department at one of the more popular labs if I play my cards right. By this time next quarter I could be working on some actual science! WOO!
I'm so cool.
