Currently, I'm working as an intern at the MacArthur Agro-Ecology Research Center in Lake Placid, Florida where I am studying the disease ecology of feral swine and cattle. Pretty much my job is to run around and chase pigs while collecting poop samples... I know, it's hard to have such a glamourous life, but hey, someone's gotta do it, right?
I am here through the middle of December and after that, I'll be traveling to Wunseidel, Germany to visit some friends from college. After that however, is a blank slate. For now, when I'm not working, I am cooking, running, and blogging to keep myself busy, Lake Placid is not exactly a booming metropolis and it takes about 30 minutes just to get out of my dirt road driveway.
Before graduating, I had it all planned out, I'd graduate (check), get a job or internship doing biology research (check), apply for graduate school and get my PhD in ecology and become a full-time research biologist... that's where things have gotten a little fuzzy. Now, I'm not sure what I want to do or be, so for now, I am wandering.
