Busy August is Busy!

Well, I've definately dropped the ball with posting again, haven't I.  :) 

The last 2 month and the next couple, in summary:

- Survived first round of field work.  Was relatively successful, and I'm pretty pleased with it's results.  Not so much with one of the labs dropping the ball with some of my water samples.  :P
- Oh my gosh so much writing this last month.  Term paper, report of activities, and a proposal (which will be finished tonight, I swear!).  I hate writing.  Why the heck am I doing a masters again?
- Reconnected with an old friend and going on an awesome road trip with them in September.  Am rather twitterpated, actually.  ;)
- Leaving tomorrow to celebrate/mourn a friend defending her masters thesis.  Wine will be drunk and good times will be had.
- Friday flying off to Nova Scotia to be a field lacky for a friend.  So excited, since I've never been to the east coast before.  Heck, I've never seen the ocean from the Canadian side at all.  Might even jump in!  Also, BAY OF FUNDY!  :D  Such a geo-geek.  Oh, also doing field work on arsenic-rich tailings.  Right.  Work.  ;)
- 4 days after getting back from Nova Scotia, will be off again for another round of sampling at Terra Mine.  :D  WHEE MORE FIELD WORK!
- Right after that, road trip to Manitoba, followed by a wedding and lots of friends and family!  YAAAY!

So so very excited for this next month-and-a-half!  :D
