That's how long it will be before I get my own internet back.

It's a true test, one that I've already failed after only 5 days of not having web access, needing to get my fix at the local public library.

You hear a lot of people talking about change nowadays, especially if you listen to the US Presidential debates. Well, I've taken a little of that spirit to heart, and found myself a new job. Still research, just trying to treat a different medical need. It is also no longer an academic exercise as I will be gainfully employed in the service of an actual biotech company. I'm going to have to become familiar with an entirely different set of standards and practices that go along with developing pharmaceutics, but the potential rewards are great and well worth the risk of leaving behind the safety net provided by post-doctoral research.

So it is time to start packing, 7 days until I load up a truck and head north for a new way of doing science. Needless to say, I think posts will be even less frequent, at least for a while. Forget being able to time it with a calendar, now we are talking carbon 14 dating. I guess its true what they say, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

I was tagged by a while ago. Since I don't want to do the work I should be doing right now, I thought I would finally fulfill his request....

1. post these rules
2. each person tagged must post 8 random (surely) (hopefully interesting(hardly)) facts about themselves
3. tags should write a journal of these facts
4. at the end of the post 4 more bloggers are tagged and named
5. go to their page and leave a comment telling them that they're tagged.

Fact 1: I am typing this on a german keyboard.

Fact 2: I listen to Anime OSTs almost exclusively. I think The last non-japanese music I listened to was Motorhead, "The Ace of Spades" somewhere around 4 months ago.

Fact 3: I do research on stem cells.

Fact 4: I have two guinea pigs, Hime and Ringu. I don't do research on them.

Fact 5: Despite all the years of playing online shooters (a.k.a. murder simulators), I've never fired a real gun.

Fact 6: The amount of soda that you drank today is probably more than I have had in my lifetime.

Fact 7: I have 6 stories I work on during rare quiet times, BA (my epic saga), 11 After 11, Gun Idol, Goddess Complex, Dream Assassins, and Tomorrow the World. I just wish I had the drawing ability to put any one of these into manga form.

Fact 8: I like cheese.

I tag any 4 people who feel particularly compelled to do this exercise them self.

I've tried to avoid these things, but my scientific curiosity finally kicked in. There was this quiz that I thought would be interesting to try using my music preference, anime OSTs. I didn't strictly follow the rules though, because the titles for some of the songs are unintelligible, but I promise that I took the very next song.

And now for the results of the experiment....

Ripped from =kaoru-chan who got it from ~tehcutiepie.

Put your iTunes/Winamp/WMP on shuffle.
Say the following questions aloud, and press play.
Use the song title as the answer to the question.
NO CHEATING.


1. How does the world see you? "Yashashii yoake" (Easy Dawn) ~.hack//SIGN Ending. I'm glad it's not difficult to wake up with me. XD

2. Will I have a happy life? "I, I, You, You" ~Urusei Yatsura OVA 1. Just the kind of straightforward answer I was expecting from this quiz. Since this is an incredibly annoying song, I will have to go with a no on this one.

3. What do my friends think of me? "Cutie Honey" ~Cutie Honey Opening.

4. Do people secretly lust after me? We are the Stars ~Ragnarok the Animation Opening. So I'm popular in Hollywood, is that a good thing?

5. How can I make myself happy? MeiQ (Make You) ~Tantei Gakuen Q Opening. That is just damn wierd sounding

6. What should I do with my life? Kujukenaikara! (Never Give Up) ~Slayers Ending. I'll buy that.

7. Will I ever have children? Taiyou no Rakuen Promised Land (Paradise of the Sun)~Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Opening. I'm gonna have a boy.

8. What is some good advice for me? Egao no Mirai E (Future of Smiling Faces) ~Love Hina. Oooo A career in comedy...So I was at the grocery store the other day and there was this fat guy.....Nevermind.

9. How will I be remembered? Himawari (Sunflower) ~Stratos4. Just Sweet

10. What's my signature dancing song? Koi no Mobius (Love Mobius) ~Urusei Yatsura Ending. Proves I have too many old Urusei Yatsura songs in my collection.

11. What's my current themesong? Forever ~Juubei-chan Opening ..or the amount of time it takes me to post a drawing.

12. What do others think is my current themesong? Overdrive ~Move (one of the few pure J-Pop songs I have). Don't know what to make of that.

13. What shall they play at my funeral? Eternal Flower ~Terada Haruhi. See 9, apparently flowers will play a big role at the end of my life.

14. What type of women do I like? Yuzurenai Negai (Unyielding Wish) ~Magic Knight Rayearth. You have no idea how true this is.

15. How's my love life? Asu he no Namida (Tears for Tomorrow) ~Onegai Twins Ending. No comment.



Well now that was fun.


...requested a drawing of one of his fantasy characters. I actually got back to this, repenned it and am ready to color. Also using it as a testbed for some PS effects.
