So I've decided to do a half-marathon in Sept and thus have started focusing a working out this week...Monday night pump class, Tuesday a jog on the beach, Wednesday shooting hoops (as I've also signed up for our department basketball team, which I've never done before), Thursday was a field day - long and lots of driving - and spent a couple of nights hanging out with Shannon, the night owl. So that leads to an exhausted Kristin by Friday. And I have so much work to be doing that I will be working the entire weekend - checking all these snails for parasites, working in the genetics lab and cranking out another draft of my manuscript.
Students are back for O-week, two weeks of partying starting the week before classes. So they are everywhere! Damn they are so young! I've also agreed to be a demonstrator (what they call teaching assistant) this semester for Behavioral Evolutionary Ecology, a third (and final) year course...my supervisor asked me so I really couldn't say no. For the most part it will require me supervising 2-3 groups that work on freshwater parasite projects, which should be heaps of fun!
