Life without Brad

This past week of research, Brad went on vacation. While I took some time off I still came in and did some work. It was interesting working without Brad being around. He has been micromanaging us and without out him around to do so me and Ben had to make some of our own decisions and do some problem solving on our own. It was great experience as an undergrad cause once you get out into the real world you will have to make your own decisions and decide things for yourself so I took this as a learning experience.
Also, I have been working on a paper(really informal) about TCP going to DCQ. A copy of this paper will go to the head of the North Carolina chemistry department because we are doing some similar things. And also none of his research students wanted to do HPLC work and it worked out cause I had most of the stuff he wanted to do already done. Not as exciting as other things perhaps but it's part of doing research and this is a stepping stone to gettin published which will help me alone when it comes time to go to Grad School.
