Procrastination

Well, I’m all finished with the lab work for my second project in my Masters. Now I just need to write up the project report for it. But I’ve taken up the usual student activity of procrastination and doing things other than writing my report are far more fun, like playing Plants vs Zombies, writing the first blog post in about 3 months or helping out with The Secret of Monkey Island – Special Edition. I loved Monkey Island as a kid, I think it’s at least 10 years since I first played The Secret of Monkey Island, but somehow I can still remember the sword fighting insults (“I’ve fought apes more polite than you” “I’m glad to hear you attended your family reunion”). Clearly I played that game far too much

Some cool news from the first project of my Masters is that I have my name on a journal article . I was asked to help collect some of the data for the article and was lucky enough to be included as an author. http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ja810046q = a linky for anyone interested in the article.
