One more thing...
Last night, Maria, Irene, and Christine made fortune cookies to go along with their dinner, and put in fortunes that are each relevant to one person. Proof that I am not exaggerating: my fortune was "You will bring booty tan lines into fashion." Oh joy...
After a much failed attempt to keep a blog last semester while I was in Australia, I decided to try this again... I am spending nine weeks in Moorea, French Polynesia, as part of a research class at UC Berkeley. The aim of the class is to study island biogeography and learn how to become a scientist. Each of the twenty-two students in the class will choose an individual project to work on, come up with a hypothesis, and set up experients in an effort to answer this question. The end result will be a scientific paper as well as an oral presentation, and of course nine weeks of amazing hands-on experience as a scientist. Happy reading :)
