Trip to the coast..

These past couple of days I haven't been writing because I've been not quite busy busy but occupying my time with being down at the darling marine center.
Carrie and I went down to her house tuesday night, her parents are so cute, Wednesday we went down to the darling marine center. It's so beautiful there and wednesday was a great day. I went to a workshop with Carrie in the morning. It was a bunch of teachers talking about teaching concepts to students so it was weird for me to listen to them talk about how they teach us. One of the science teachers at my school happened to be there as well so I talked to him. We did some labs afterwards, not so interesting but then i went up to the library. I didn't stay in there long because I just wanted to be outside so I went down to the dock and tried to get work done but the outside even though its peaceful can be very distracting. We also went on a tour of the center and i got to see algae and and clams and oysters.
That night we went down to pemaquid point which was also very nice and we went out to eat and I cracked my first lobster =). I stayed in the cabin that night and wokeup early, well for me, to go to breakfast. Did some work in the library then snuck into Annette's (my mentor's) office and we chatted and she's great. Not what i had pictured but shes really cool. Went back down to lunch and then went to another lab where i got to burn food haha.
We ended up getting out of there early which was good for me because apparently i was really tired but all in all it was a great couple of days.
Today i worked on my essay and looking at some more endangered species stuff.
Off for more work and a weekend of who knows what.
have a good one.
