sunday afternoon, 5pm, working.

the tranquility of the lab takes over my unrestful mind. it was supposedly a 3-day weekend, but with so much time spent in lab, i'm beginning to think i've become a slave to this place instead. i don't mind, sorta. i want to end my project with a bang!, so-to-speak; i want my work to leave a good impression on my fellow peers and colleagues---whether or not i plan to return to this field of study. that's the ambitious side of me that still calls for attention when in fact, this IS my "year-off."

my intended to-do list was rather lengthy, but again, i didn't meet nearly half the errands i hoped to run. oh well. chilling is the new attitude i'm trying to take on before going off to school again. maybe it'll be exceedingly prevalent over there when i continue to exude myself as the cali girl. ha! i'll definitely miss that...who knows how much i'll conform myself when meeting the new adventures of new haven. i've always been a conformist to nonconformity (personally, i think everyone is a conformist of some sort), but when my intellectually-stimulating mind is hungry as it has been feeling recently, i might subconsciouly adapt the serious school-girl attitude once i get back into the studying schedule again. it saddens me that i must let my freedom go.
