Hairless???

Whaaaa? Hairless guinea pigs?

They are so UGLY that I think they are actually somewhat cute. What do you think?

Wiener Dogs

My mom sent me this picture today. They have a herd of wiener dogs (four of 'em!)  back home. I thought the picture was really cute!

From left: Hammy, Hurley, and Blitz. Romeo is missing from the bunch.  Who knew they synchronized their sleeping. I miss these guys.

Let's Celebrate!

Today is full of good news!

1. Seth was asked to come up with a 400 question test for a Psychology textbook written by a Harvard Professor last week, and the test he came up with was approved! It will look fantastic on his resume.

2. My friend Camille applied to Stanford PA school the other day--she has been trying to decide for a while on whether to apply or not and she got the guts to do it! Awesome!

3. Seth and I got called into the Primary today---again! Sundays are great when you spend them playing games and eating snacks with a bunch of kids----oh and uh, teaching them. hehe.

4. I am officially in for graduation and I am getting a minor in Biochemistry.

5. I stumbled upon an awesome recipe for roast.  I love making good sunday dinners.

6. Our friend Mike turned 27 this week after finding out he had thought he was turning 28! And I won Richard Geare cereal at the party! Score.

7. I found a really cute dress for super cheap at Nordstroms rack yesterday, and it was the last one and in my size! I know thats kind of lame good news, but it feels so good to find a good deal on something.

What a great way to start the week! 

The probability of finding "a Lacey"

In class we were talking about the probability of finding electrons at a particular time and place around a molecule and their different affinities for other molecules. Soooo... randomly I thought.. what is the probability of finding a Lacey? --ok I was bored- don't laugh at me. Anyway, this is what I came up with when I should have been paying attention on how to calculate K eq's:

During weekdays, you have a 58% chance of finding a Lacey here:

...the Biochem lab---way too many things to do in here and way too little time to do them. I spent 8 hours in here yesterday making LB agar plates and a phosphate buffer.

...a 15% chance of finding a Lacey here:

My favorite place to study. The library is wayyyyy too cold for me. My brain functions better in the sun.

...and an 10% chance of finding a Lacey with these people during weekdays:

Nate and Camille--we pretty much do everything with these guys. Especially on weekends!


...and a 17% chance of finding a Lacey here:

Where i spend time with my love and the fat bulldog.


...and on the weekends a 90% chance of finding me here with the love of my life: (Lacey's have HUGE affinities for Seths!)


(the other 10% of the weekend you probably will find me at Stortos--my second home!)


Where would you most likely be found during the week?

Early Morning

I think the early morning is the most peaceful part of the day. Everything is still and calm, and so relaxing!  I love waking up early and watching the sun rise and being able to relax before my hectic day starts.  This is what I saw this morning when I got up:

I'm totally a morning person due to many years of early classes. I love waking up early while everything is so calm and quiet. I feel so gross when I sleep in until the afternoon. To me, nothing is better then being able to peacefully start your day by seeing a gorgeous sunrise while eating a yummy breakfast!
