accumulated good things
Jun. 18th, 2014 11:31 pmSunday good things:
1. Chat with J.
2. Really nice walk and yogurt in the park. Underdone mochi, silly pilgrim statue, still very pleasant.
3. Hansel and Gretel, Witch Hunters was exactly the terrible movie I wanted to watch.
Monday good things:
1. Entertaining texts distracting me from moping.
2. "Rafflesiaceae flowers are fly pollinated and mimic carrion— they lure pollinators through deceit (i.e., offer no reward), thus acting as dual parasites on their pollinators and their Tetrastigma hosts (Bänziger, 1996; Nais, 2001). " Yeah bitches, Rafflesia!
3. Dinner (with
rushthatspeaks and
gaudior) and a movie!
Tuesday good things:
1. Bunny sighting right by the Divinity School!
2. Soooo hot, and of course I chose this day to go into the greenhouses to collect specimens... but it was actually quite comfy in the greenhouse compared to outdoors!
3. OMG all the sleeping.
Wednesday good things:
1. Doing actual lab work! DNA preps from a kit are still kind of adventurous when everything is unfamiliar and the equipment is busted and/or mysterious.
2. Orientation to the herbarium library and getting to go hunt for a thing in the book-smelling stacks with automatic lights and beautiful old monographs.
3. Books bound with marbled paper and containing annotations in the loveliest faded ink and perfect old-style handwriting! Plus, solving a mystery that led to relabeling a book correctly!
