There's so much hanging after this semester. Usually, I feel relieved after the semester is over, but there's so much left to do that .... well I guess that I still feel relieved. I do not have that feeling that things are rolling away from me. I still feel like there's a ton to do, and I haven't gotten some of grades back yet, so I'm a little anxious about that. Over the break we're going to begin a test for colonization with more regularly sized plastics. I'm a little disappointed that we couldn't start the 120 day co incubation, but this is great practice for that. I am very motivated to complete the test for colonization, and I find that I'm definitely feeling more comfortable organizing our tests and trying to think of solutions to issues that come up which is good because honestly I was starting to feel like I was just being way too dramatic about issues that were popping up in the process of my research when I should have been just problem solving. Dr Cotter has really been a wonderful example of that. We are going to bang out this colonization test, and we'll find out some stuff. You always find out something.
