Second semester begins

Today was the first day of classes in the second semester. My first class was at noon, but lab work began at 9, so I got up bright and early at 7:30. In the lab, I learned how to use micropipettors and heard about the techniques used in the experiments we'll be starting on Thursday. I was also told what kinds of things we might want to be able to know from sequence data. I look forward to doing some biologically relevant programming.

After finishing up at the lab, I walked over to my differential equations class. In the first session, the professor just covered the syllabus/policies and the outline of what we are going to do with differential equations. After a quick stop at the dorm for lunch, I got on the bus to the chemistry discussion, which is conveniently exactly where it was last semester. Unfortunately, due to the vast amount of people getting off and on the bus and there being so many cars on the road, the bus took ten minutes longer than I expected and I was a bit late to class. (First impressions ahoy!) I'll take that into account next time. Since there have been no lectures yet, the discussion was just personal introductions.

Tomorrow I have a CS lecture at 8 AM, so I'll be waking up at 6:40.
