Kim's little patch of space...

The title of this blog is the reason for its existance. Its a nice sunny patch of garden with a nice big tree with a swing to sit under and lots of sunflowers... As for its creator, she is a postgrad student who has a tendency to take life a bit too seriously. Currently she is on a journey of self discovery and has no idea where it will take her...she may well find the meaning of life.

A few hours ago was total panic, as I had to submit a review article for a journal (and a chemistry one...what the? I'm a pseudo biochemistry/immunologist!) that had been covered in revisions by my supervisor, which I had to complete. Arrrgh. The most difficult one was to find a series of journal articles to reference, but I had to admit defeat - I didn't have the time, and hopefully they're not necessary *fingers crossed* That's the problem when you have a review that needs to be submitted by a deadline. And :P I didn't get a chance to write who could be sent a free copy of that journal if the article is published....and to top it all off, I accidently sent the wrong file to the editor...panic, panic PANIC!!! I'm thanking my lucky stars that I realised in time, and I was able to send the right version :)

And now its the easter break. I'm so happy its arrived, can kind of relax, until the guilt (the guilt associated when doing a PhD project) sets in and I realise how little I've done since my 12 month confirmation. Will have to write some more to do lists, try and be more efficient. But doing heaps of fun stuff with people (i.e. not PhD related!) that I haven't been able to do b/c of the 12 month confirmation and then that review. Oh no, there's still one more review to go....no! Don't think about it just yet....

I'll just worry about all the chocolate and hot cross buns I'm eating...it doesn't help that chocolate was everywhere, everywhere in the lab, and I couldn't help eating it all, it was so nice :) But I restrained myself when it came to my Lindt chocolate bunny, its just too cute to eat (yet)!

Happy easter everyone! :)
