BG/ Cleveland/ Ann Arbor
So I had a nice little vacation recently...
Last Friday I headed up to BG. It was great to just hang out and relax with Jared. We didn't do much which was totally fine with me. We ordered pizza and watched some TV with his roommate Chris and eventually headed out to Downtown to meet up with my friend Bridget. The bar was surprisingly pretty busy considering it was Fall Break weekend.
Saturday I headed to Cleveland for a wedding. My boss Mary from the chemistry stockroom was getting married and it was a great time. I was working at the stockroom when her and her now husband, Chris, first met and started dating. I went with Megan and Jason who I worked with at the stockroom and we always have fun when we all hang out together. I think we had a bit too much fun at the reception because there was a lot of waiting and we got bored so we amused ourselves with the camera that was on our table. Enough said. I headed back to BG that night and convinced Chris and Jared to come out to Downtown for drink.
On Sunday the road trip to Ann Arbor was under way! Jared, Chris, and I headed there to stay with my friend Jody (a grad student at U of M) to check out the U of M campus and the wonderful city of Ann Arbor. My friend Bridget also met up with us later on Sunday. I had a meeting on Monday with the recruitment director for the graduate program to which I'm applying to, School of Natural Resources and Environment. It went really well and I'm really excited about the prospects of going to U of M for my Master's degree. I decided to retake the GRE in December because if I get a better score I'll have a better chance of getting an assistantship or fellowship which I will definitely need in order to pay for school. I fell in love with the city! There is just so much to do and so much to see. The campus is gorgeous! I spent so much money there on shopping, food, and beer. I am going to have to put in some major overtime at work but it was totally worth it!
I came back to Piqua on Tuesday and I'm wishing I was still in Ann Arbor. I will actually be going back up there on the 23rd for a job interview with Environment Michigan working on their energy campaign. And I also wish that I wasn't sick but yet again I'm sick and it's annoying.
So I've been thinking more about grad school since after Christmas I will have to start the application process all over again. I know I'm applying to U of M and Ohio State. I'm still considering to applying to UC Berkeley as my "dream" school because there is a professor who is studying endocrinology of amphibians that I would love to work under. I'm still searching for possibly 2 more schools outside of Ohio to apply to.
Here are some pictures from my mini vacation:
Oh and here's an article from the BG News that my left-handed boyfriend is in!
