As much as I hate to use the same excuse over and over… I’ve been busy.
We moved into the new apartment the first week of September. It doesn’t feel like it’s been over a month already, but it has! I think we finally got the last of the boxes out of the living room / dining room area last weekend, but there are still some lingering in the front “office”.
I’ve been on a kick of “fixing the place up” — shopping for new furniture & fixtures. For example, we now have a sunroom, and I really want to get a long, low shelf of some sort to place below the window to hold plants. We also have a breakfast bar, and we need barstools. (And so on… you get the idea.)
I took photos during the move to try to track the progress, but haven’t really photographed the place since then — I still don’t feel like it’s what I’d consider “presentable”. But here are some nice photos of my sunroom:
Fall semester is halfway over already (!) with some pretty tough classes: Physical Chemistry, Quantitative Analysis, and Biochemistry. In addition, I’m also assisting with the Organic chemistry lab class and also with the lower-level Physics lab class. I’m also tutoring Physics and working on scholarship applications.
I’ve also started trying to research graduate programs. The problem with that is, I’m still not 100% sure on either (a) where I want to go, or (b) what field I want to study.
A while ago I signed up for this online service called Evernote that assists you with keeping virtual “notebooks”. I haven’t really used it to its full potential yet, but I’ve started using it this weekend to try to collect information on different grad schools. I think I may try to see how I can integrate it with this blog… not sure if such a thing is possible, but I’m going to try to remember to do some research on it.
Does it ever seem like there just aren’t enough hours in the day?
I know what my problem is — too much time spent on Facebook / watching TV / surfing the web, and not enough time spent doing productive, useful stuff. I’m just not sure how to change that… I guess I’m an addict.
