Phage Phest 2011

Okay, so Phage Phest yesterday was absolutely incredible!
We did the whole carpool thing, because that makes sense. Some people don’t have cars, and the whole part where we’re pretend to save the earth was also a factor. Dr. J, two other students, and I drove. On the way there, Raiha rode with me, and that was pretty awesome! We listened to music really loud (and found out that my CD player goes to volume 63), and sang like idiots. And laughed at each other.
When we got there, we ate pizza. I think we were supposed to mingle with students from other schools, but we didn’t. We all sat off in a corner and talked about how awesome VCU is. Because it is.
Then we went to “the world’s biggest lab meeting.” It was awesome. William and Mary, Mary Washington, and JMU presented, and then it was our turn. We presented what we had found about Wally and everybody thought it was pretty cool. We all sat down but then everyone had questions! It was so crazy awesome!
Then we went to a seminar. Dr. William Jacobs (from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York) spoke about XDR-TB (extensively drug resistant tuberculosis) and phage. It was great.
Then on the way back, I drove Ryan, Nikita, and Sarah. We listened to Taylor Swift and talked about movies and such. It was awesome.
Then I went to church and Women’s Fellowship was great, as always!
:)
Yep, my Friday was pretty incredible.
If only VCU had won tonight… :/
