NSO cah-raziness

Howdy

Day #3 of New Student Orientation, but it seems like it's been a week already!

Okada staff woke up freakin early on Tuesday to get the place ready for the newbies and scream and yell greetings and freak them out by knowing their names :) The studying at retreat paid off, although there were one or two "ack! it's....??? just guess!" and frantic searching of the paper facebook. Mostly, everyone was recognizable though.

The freshmen are so enthusiastic and fun! It's really been a blast, trying to get people somewhat acclimated to Stanford and yelling O-K-A-D-A and so on! Band run was fantastic and sooo tiring. My legs still sort of hurt. Oh, funny story I've been sharing- at the main quad, I was mid-jump when I turned my head and saw...a naked guy right behind me!!!!!!! I was aghast and quicky squeezed away, but I think I will have to dose my sweater in ethanol or something equally sterilizing. GROSS!!!!! Ew, hope there was no accidental rubbing.

I can't believe I'm a senior! It's so bizarre and rather disturbing. Does this really mean I have to face the Real World in a matter of months??? Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was at lab today. Good times. Got to see sepsis-induction in a couple of mice. Talked with animal facility people to figure out what the dealio is up with my poor mice in ARO49. They're going to be feral by the time we get BP and MRIing again. Darnit.
