Real World: Cape Cod. Weekend One
Well... enough people have said it when I told them how I would be living when I was here, so I give up and will use it too.
Last week was interesting. I got to go out in the field a couple times and I was in the lab some figuing out what my project was going to be. I think I know what it's gonna be on now, but I've been procrastining on the reading which is bad. So I'm terrified of tomorrow cuz if someone asks me a question, I might end up giving them a blank stare. But it's ok.
The house is great but I wonder about the dynamics sometimes. Like... I feel kinda isolated sometimes. Mostly because 2 of the girls have really bonded and no one else is really making an effort to be really friendly. But I think I can deal because I think soon we're all gonna be really busy with our projects.
This weekend was fun though. See, our house is about 11.5 miles to Woods Hole which is where we all work. And the other girls have been riding into work. So yesterday, when we didn't have internet yet, we wanted to check our email. And since the MBL library is open 24 hours, we biked to the town of Falmouth (about 9 miles) and walked around. Then we went on to Woods Hole and stayed at the library for a bit. I did get a really good wrap though. Turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and guacamole. Yummm. Went to the beach for a bit, then returned to the house with a very sore butt.
Today, still recovering from yesterday, we biked to the Falmouth Harbor and took the ferry to Martha's Vineyard. Once there we biked around three of the towns and poked around. It was fun, but my legs feel like they're going to fall off and my butt hurts like nothing else. I really need to get a cushion for that damn seat.
So in total... I think I biked like 55 miles this weekend. And the irony is that despite feeling like I'm drowning in soreness, I intend to bike to work tomorrow. Oy vey. I'm crazy.
Anyway.... I'm damn tired and it's not even 10pm. That's really sad. I think I need to go read myself to sleep or something. I have to leave at 7:45 tomorrow to make it on time.
