Twelve straight hours of making maps and graphs
makes me crazy
makes me everything blurry
makes me question why improved technology is such a freaking great thing.
All the time spent tracking down info on the web
gets me distracted
gets at my confidence
gets me agitated that there's so much stuff I could never search it all.
Pointing and clicking around in PowerPoint/Excel/Word
makes me hunch
makes my world seem smaller
makes me feel like a monkey with a mouse that gets no reward for clicking the right
button.
Hours spent searching for web tutorials on Arc/Access/SigmaPlot
gets me excited
gets me confused later
gets me concerned that the same post can lift my hopes and dash my spirits.
Being in grad school for years on end
has made me cry (often)
has made me feel successful (less often)
has made me so nerdy and excited about science all that other stuff is worth it (most
of the time).
