So I'm back in school again. I go three days a week now and spend the rest at home with Julia. It's really nice to be getting back to my old life again. I just handed my last chapter for my Thesis earlier this week so now I just have to wait for the edits. Then, once it's all edited, I have to defend it to a committee. I'm pretty nervous about that part, but there's no way around it. I officially start my PhD in January. That part is really exciting.
Having been a nerd from a young age, I've always wanted to count myself among the top scientists in geology (my passion began with a love of dinosaurs). While getting a PhD doesn't ensure that, it is one step closer. Conducting research has proven to be something I thoroughly enjoy.
But, more immediate things are taking my attention right now. I'm taking a class...geomicrobiology. It's really interesting, but also really intense. I'm also TAing (teaching labs) for an introductory geology course. Again, super fun but a lot of work.
So life has become busy again and it's awesome!
