December Break

So I have not posted in awhile. Our group was given a small break for Christmas, which I must say was desperately needed. I have been sleeping in and really enjoying not living by a schedule.
On the other hand I am excited to go back and get busy again. Our cultures are all in the fridge to slow growth over the break and I have a large fungi article to read before we all meet again so its not like I have NOTHING to do, just very little. Oh, on a side note I got a telephoto lens for my camera which I have been using like crazy so the macro lens has been put aside for a while, not to worry you will still get lovely fungi pictures to oogle at. :)
Happy New Year!

A Little Update

Here's a cool picture I took, it's a reflection of a bench and the sky in a puddle, I really like how it looks so I thought I would post it because I have no fun fungi pictures for you to look at. :( Oh I have been meaning to add a link here, but I LOVE photography so I have a profile on Deviantart, please check it out and if you have a profile too, add me! :) Here's the link:

So I apologize for not posting in a while, I have had a crazy month! I thought I could update you on what has been going on in the lab!

Our PAH experiment is almost complete, I still have like six plates growing so I figure I can keep measuring them until they finish growing. And entering week 2.5 on our Diesel experiments most of the fast fungi have completed growth on all three diesel concentrations. (control, .1% and 1%) It's a lot of measuring plates, and repetitive work so it's boring to talk about and sometimes boring to do but it is interesting to see what strains finish first or do good with this contam. and not that one, etc.

Well have lots of Biology homework to get to, thanks a lot Prof!
