I've essentially come to the conclusion that my internship...which for those of you who may not know mainly concerns the daily activities of algae in the Chesapeake Bay...is comprised of 3 main ingredients: one part brain, one part manual labor, and one part trained monkey.
For those hours spent as trained monkey I've carefully composed perhaps one of the most perfect play-lists developed by man. And by perfect I mean this ever unchanging sequence of songs may actually endure the remainder of summer before its rich rhythm morphs into a predictable and listless noise. However, keep in mind that this definition of perfect is indeed coming from the mouth of a girl who will tell you the daily activities of Chesapeake algae are thrilling.
So, for those of you who trust my judgment regardless, enjoy.
For the rest of you - algae really is as remarkable as I make it out to be...
really...

boo, that sounds sweetas. I'm so glad that your general monkey-ish (jumping around, random screeching sounds, eating lots of fruit) is coming in handy for this internship :)
ReplyDeleteI think you could do to throw some classic rock on the playlist, but other than that i presume it's just about perfect for studying algae-whatever that entails.
Miss you and love you OH so much.
