Its been a while

Yes, I know - I haven't done this in a while. I wish I could say that the culprit was something like school or a church calling, but to be honest a friend got me hooked on this video game called battlefield 2. It is pretty fun and its done online. Its like a playground for adults. With that said, a little update on the whole grad school thing. I am currently in a lab now, I work with Dr. Sevy who does laser spectroscopy. I basically excite molecules with a large laser and measure the energy levels they are excited into. Pretty sweet. I will try and include some pictures. The good thing is that I have a computer in the lab so I should be able to post a little more frequent than once in the last 4 months - I am really sorry about that. Anyway, in additions to research and one class, I TA for a biophysics class and I teach two freshman chemistry labs. So for so good with everything, but my students get their first lab back tomorrow and I am bracing for concerns.

Thanks hollie - it did make me laugh. Our laser is still down in the lab, but as soon as we get it working I will post a few pictures of what my lab looks like which is basically a table with alot of mirrors
