Oct. 10th, 2001 11:03 amThe official pursuits of the diligent graduate student:
1. Running experiments
2. Analyzing samples
3. Having productive talks with the advisor
4. Pushing Back the Frontiers of Science
5. Reading journals
6. Writing papers
So, lab, are we diligent graduate students? *Arafel's lab falls over laughing and goes back to playing Dry Ice Hockey*
The unofficial pursuits of the diligent graduate student:
1. Scrounging for free food
2. Sleeping in seminars
3. Complaining about/arguing with advisor
4. Hiding in the library
5. Doing experiments Mother Nature Never Intended
6. Chasing persistent vendors out of the lab
*as she types, Arafel is scarfing down a perfectly awful pink-iced donut that she got from the Vendor Fair downstairs*
The only trouble with these vendors is that you have to listen to their schpiel before they leave the food behind. *Arafel pretends to be interested in the Brand New Thermometer! and quietly snags another sugar-bearing treat out of the jar*
Guess I am feeling silly today. :)
