i think my body's finally rebelled...it won't let me sleep less than six hours a night anymore--at least, it hasn't for the past three nights. little factors that aid my body in its conspiracy to rob me of working/studying time are my immunity to my alarm and cell phone alarm and my absolute lack of willpower and discipline these days.

is this what they call burning out? might as well label this week "crash and burn".

well, at least i had a relaxing day of bacteria transformation and pipetting. wasn't that interesting, but at least there were sparks and fire. grow, correctly ligated plasmid-and-tryptophan-repressor-gene-containing E. coli, grow!
