It all kind of boils down to "hey, our system for analyzing mouse freezing behavior is pretty accurate".

The Spring schedule was supposed to go up today.

It's not up.

In my mind, there's a children's book, "Dick and Jane" style, called "Let's You And Me Terrify a Bunch of Mice"

It's pretty fucked up, actually. Neuroscientists are ASSHOLES. http://www.jove.com/video/50871/contextual-cued-fear-conditioning-test-using-video-analyzing-system

Luckily I won't be working with mice, I'll be working with children.

In light of the above posts, that just sounds wrong.

I think I have picked out my classes for next term. Cell Bio & lab, Scientific Ethics, and Ecopsychology.

I only have 3 psych classes left and while I know I SHOULD be saving myself for the serious topics like child psychopathology and cognitive neuroscience, I have had about a million really overloaded terms in a row, and plus it gives me a totally cherry schedule and the instructor is heading up that trip to Peru.

Now I just need to restrain myself from doing anything totally stupid like adding just one easy online class, which will tip the balance from perfect to hell, guaranteed.

I got an email from my Cell Bio professor saying that all of the In Progresses are no longer in progress so we can get our finals and paper 3 back.  :lulz:

Also, "If you haven't applied for summer internships, the deadlines are approaching"

And I'm like, "Oh shit.... Dr. D, tell me more"

I got some inside info that the lab wants people who are free Mondays and Wednesdays, which rules out Ecopsychology but opens me up for Cognitive Neuro.

Interview's on Tuesday.

I just spent the last 3 hours writing a CV. First I had to figure out HOW to, I've never done it before.

Where in Peru are you going to be located?

Mesozoic Mister Nigel

All I know is "an off-grid site in the Peruvian Andes".
