Second Thursday..

Thursday, June 16th, 2011:


Just like the yesterday..
Waking up later than usual, going to lab, working on the project I started yesterday..
Working on that document took forever, all afternoon yesterday, all morning today, and part of the afternoon..

What I worked on yesterday afternoon and today is going to be sent from our department to a pharmaceutical company..
I was proud to finish it actually and make it make sense to anyone who reads it, especially since I had to communicate with more than one department to get all the information I needed to get it done..
Now this research study is done to find the effectiveness of a drug in treating or stopping the progression of Alzheimer's or Mild Cognitive Impairment..

The rest of the afternoon however, I had nothing to work on..
I wanted to do something because I cannot not do nothing..
There was nothing for me though!
So what I did is I started reading about the brain, then about an article about a program we use to analyze brain images..
Also, I started looking for internship for me for next summer (I know, it is too early, but I could not resist!)
In addition, I started looking at other schools besides OSU since I do not think that I am going to get in..
Between the different universities I looked at, I really like University of Washington..
They have a really good program for Public Health, and I really like their Public Health clinical research epidemiology program..
They also have a post-bachelor in their global health center program that I am thinking about applying for..
I am definitely going there, if not for my master's degree, maybe for my PhD; they have all the specialties I am interested in, and according to my friend, it is located in a nice part of Seattle..
I am also considering visiting it sometime this year..

The last hour of the day, I was going to work on a different project, but when I was going to be introduced to the project, me and all of my lab partners were talking about the public transportation issue in Phoenix..
Everyone complains about it, and about how bad it is, including me..
It needs to be changed, especially the slow-er light rail they have..
We were talking about my trip to Sun City, which is going to take me two hours, but the way to there is supposed to be only half an hour or less..
It was interesting conversation for sure..

The end of the day, I went home, and right away to the office..
I paid (not really me) way too much for the apartment than I should..
It was more than double of what my roommate paid, which I did not know about before last night..
It turned out that I paid for many things that I am not responsible for..
Now, I will be ok because no rent is going to be paid for next month, so I do not have to worry about paying anything for the apartment..
On the other hand, now I have to talk the person who was living here before us, and to my second roommate since I paid all of their pills from May!

The rest of night was just like usual, facebook, reading, eating dinner, and going to be late..
Nothing too exciting!
