i should be doing homework.

school has been in full swing for a week now, and i'm still trying to find my groove.
i've been keeping up fairly well, but i could definitely be staying on track a little better [i.e. not scrapbooking at night]. the good thing is that i have been finding time to spend in the lab, so hopefully i will keep with that. i took a little break from lab work, and it felt really nice to set up some pcr yesterday. isn't it kind of cool how a little break can make you appreciate the things you have to get done?

anyway. i think i saw this site when it first started, but i didn't pay too much attention because i'm not a card maker. i'm trying to make the transition though. making a few cards with scraps is such a fast and fun way to clean up, and there is so much fabulous inspiration on this blog. check it out if you haven't yet:
sketch this: cards!
[finally, i can make links when i blog from my mac. woo whoo.]

i made a super simple card tonight with the latest sketch, and i really enjoyed the process. :] i don't tend to use sketches for layouts, but for making a quick card... they are perfect.

okay. i have to get up early tomorrow to go to the graduate workshop for macromolecular biophys. i have a feeling it's going to make me *not* want to go to grad school. [yesterday, an old ta of mine told me that i would be a really good grad student. for about 2 minutes it made me wish i had applied for the fall. ha.]
