#had my 1st meeting with a potential adviser for a phd project#i think it went well. he was excited thst i was interested in the specific papers i listed my my email#and his lab does some super cool stuff. and he seems like a nice guy#so thats all exciting. i think the lab is only like a few degrees away from being an outstanding pick#ugh but its so close tho. like biochem and Evolutionary genertic stuff. id probably do a degree in ecology and evolution#and the department is evolutionary genetics focused. which sounds crazy cool. like i dont wanna hang with agriculture ppl. bring me the#Evolutionary biologists. plus they have some nasa ties and a big astrobiology guy is coming back to the department#and if i go. id prob get to do some work at [redacted] national park! which is an even bigger deal than the work ive done at [redacted]#national park! it would be a big change tho. more cold and snowy than the literal desert#so like im def gonna apply. and hopefully get in and hopefully visit. and we'll see what happens#im still looking at my options but this one seems pretty damn good to me#fingers crossed 🤞 i suppose#unrelated#god. it really seems like the lab is a good fit tho. like when i talk to Ecologists im like haha yea im not an ecologist#bc they wanna look for broad patterns in a big system. and im like nah fuck that. i wanna kno how this specific thing works#which i think is more his labs vibe and is why im currently not having fun with the stuff i do rn#ah we'll see where i find myself in a year#i would prob still be equally far from home tho lol. just at higher lattitude
