Yesterday, you were reading the mad ramblings of a mere graduate student. Today, you are reading the mad ramblings of an official PhD candidate. Woohoo!

Unfortunately, I didn’t actually get any money. Doh!

I’m really quite pleased with this. A lot of my troubles in grad school have come from a lack of a clear plan, but now I have one. And it’s not just my own crazy, hare-brained ideas; it has actual faculty input. I feel like I should have done this a year ago. But then, who knows what my project would be or if that really would have avoided any of the turbulence of the last year. Certainly the genomes that are central to my project weren’t available then.
