Today was mostly a relaxing and packing day. I watched a little movie, played guitar, and packed my bag for Cairns! My room was quite warm today, and it's getting warmer, of course. Oh, and I still had some spinach left, which needed to be used...
After a quick wash, I went to the Royal Botanical Gardens around 1 p.m. There, Cynthia and Angela joined me in a Photosoc photo hunt. There were about six groups in total, around 30 people.
September 23: Beyond the Genome lab wasn't much of a lab; it was basically just computer analysis, but that was fine. I had a great time with Tanya. On my way home, I was bombarded with people trying to get me to participate in the student election. I…

September 11: Lab went well today. I spent ages working on a silly calculation, but I finished what I wanted to. In the evening, I went with the "lobotomies" to a science trivia activity organized by a bunch of science student associations. There were...
Today I went to La Perouse (a bit further south in Sydney) with Cynthia, Sunny, Angela, Cailene, and Cindy. We all had a picnic there with some snacks and games. We also walked around the pier and coastal rocks. Big waves and...
August 27: The neuroscience tutorial was fine, with a bit of explanation and assignments. We got lunch at Laneway (where they have $5 lunches while supplies last). Then we had the chemistry lab, but it was a complete mess. The chemicals...
