The past few days, I've been in total
scatter brain mode. My mind keeps darting from one project to another, and it's honestly left me in a bit of a (happy, excited, exhausted) jumble.
Here's what's been on my crazy-scatted mind:
- Running. How could it not, given that my friend Amy ran the Annecy Marathon on Sunday and the stellar performance in Boston on Monday? Lately, I've been in a total running groove and to be honest, it's been fantastic. I'm super excited for the Geneva Half Marathon and to add some more races to my schedule.

| finally warm enough to run in shorts :) |
- Research. Is. Exploding. In what felt like a millisecond, I went from feeling like I had no data whatsoever to being up to my ears in numbers, graphs, and images. On the one hand, it's crazy-awesome-exciting to realize that my hours upon hours in lab are really starting to come together. On the other, it's sort of hard to stay afloat. What can I say? When it rains, it pours

| lots and lots and lots of microscoping... |
- The Mega-Veggie Scramble. I'm not coordinated enough to make an omelette, but I love mixing massive amounts of veggies into ordinary scrambled eggs. Add in a little garlic and some gruyere cheese and voila! Delicious dinner in ten minutes. Fantastic.

| colorful, protein-packed perfection. |
- Spring. It's here, folks. In full, beautiful force. Love it, love it, love it

| love spring flowers :) |
- Switzerland. Two months. Two months! Two months until I bid farewell to this amazing, amazing country and head back to the wonderful U S of A. It seems like just yesterday I was getting off the plane, fresh-faced and exciting, searching for an apartment and trying to remember everyone's name in lab. While part of me is definitely excited to return home-- I definitely miss my family, friends, and Mexican food-- I'm also not quite sure I'm ready to leave. What can I say? I'm in love with this place.

- Blogging. I've always enjoyed this little blog, but lately it's been extra fun. I've been thinking about some design and layout changes and I'm super excited...stay tuned!
So beautiful! I would love to go running there.

I didn't know Switzerland was temporary! For some reason I thought you would be there for a while. I don't blame you for not wanting to leave but yay for seeing family and friends again in America.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of the veggie "scramble" because my omelette making skills leave a lot to be desired.
:)
Your pictures are absolutely gorgeous! I do the veggie scramble too and it is SO good! We had it last night!
ReplyDeleteeggs are my go-to meal when I don't feel like making anything else...TOTALLY hitting up that mega veggie scramble. yumm!!
ReplyDeletealso, so so jealous that you're in switzerland. it's a top priority on my list of places to go when i return to europe one day!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't make an omelette ('can't be bothered' is a better choice of words). I always have the best intentions to make an omelette and it always ends up a 'scramble.'
ReplyDeleteI miss GOOD Mexican food, too... I haven't found any yet in Boston. I HOPE IT EXISTS or I'll have to move BACK to Cali just for the food.
