Says Chicken Little… It’s the end of the world as we know it … again. I don’t know if any of you noticed that it is 2012 and the conspiracy theorists are yet again going crazy.   What doesn’t help this situation is the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, which has been ongoing for-like-what- EVER?

that I had perished in the chaos that was the second half of the spring semester.  But I’m just here to let everyone know that I am indeed alive and sweating like three pigs on the beach.  Man is it hot already? And despite the heat, I decided that in order to avoid the drama [...]

I know many people would agree that dogs are people too and an integral part of your family once you get one.  That said, pathetically, some women who spend most of their time alone, like me, refer to our dogs as our babies.  Sadly, these dogs are really spoiled – rotten sometimes.

So Sunday night, I was in the lab- you know – making science happen.  I mean SCIENCE WAS HAPPENING! … and then the power went out. Science stopped, science is still stopped.

So I haven’t tuned into the NFL for two years. However, I watched this year because I just couldn’t resist an NY/NE  rematch.

1.To Stay Healthy Every semester starts off the same for me.  I exercise regularly, I eat properly and I take my vitamins.  Yet, shortly after midterms, this trend ends.  Between crazy assignments, a short vacation which makes me more susceptible to procrastination.  I have to beat this trend. 2.To Write More Being a grad student [...]

LOL! Gotcha again!  The things I have to do to get people to read my blog.  But you’re here and that makes me happy! Today, we discuss a necessary component in a good story, the antagonist, also known as the enemy, nemesis, frenemy, etc. Traditionally, an antagonist is usually an actual individual.  But the enemy [...]
