Yes, Yes drinking is always a good time! Glad to hear you had fun. As far as the festival goes, I've never been before. I actually live closer to Roc. than Syr. I'd like to check it out though. Hey i know it's been a long time, but hows the job hunt going?

I can't remember what the Canada portion costs exactly because I bought the whole trip as a whole. I'm thinking it was about $250.

Hey! Good to hear from ya.

I'm currently working on my PhD at Cornell, though technically I won't be completing it here, as my advisor and I are moving to Wales in the fall for a pretty exciting opportunity. Our work is in physical organic chemistry--we're the ones who figure out mechanisms and techniques, both experimental and theoretical, for determining them. It's wicked interesting, though even I find at times that it can be the most challenging area of chemistry, even though it's what I do.

Yeah, med schools tend not to give a shit what problems you may have, though arguably with good reason. I mean, what happens to a doctor's patient-load if he or she has a nervous breakdown? It sucks, but it kinda makes sense in a down-the-road kind of way.

I often wish I'd had the time to pick up Philosophy in addition to the subjects I studied in undergrad. I feel like it's one of those things that I would find rewarding whether I ended up using it or not. Be glad you took the time to! I'm jealous. As for the Bio, though, I'm sure there's work out there. I have no idea where to look, though. If you knew your undergrad advisor well enough, would it be possible to ask him/her for advice on where to look?

Hope you find something, sounds like your current lab situation is less than desirable.

That really sucks about the job thing. Hopefully soon. Seems that its kinda hard finding something worth while to do here in upstate ny. What kind of job are you looking for?

Wet chemistry lab in East Syracuse? Is it one of those mad scientist type of deals? Im currently residing in one of the paper science labs over at ESF. I just started grad school in the fall, yet my research is as far from chemistry related as I can make it. After one semester of O. chem. I decided Ill let others deal with that stuff.

Thanks for the list of bars. Ill have to check them out. Chucks is good with their $3 pitchers, but thats about it.

pretty sure you'd be the coolest person ever if you faked your own death.....to me anyway

nnnnawwww, we're not going any further than pa.... i wish were tho. but thank you muches anyway
