Meeting with potential Honours supervisors is going well so far. I've met with two today (out of a potential eight), and I think both meetings went okay? I definitely managed to impress someone with my chemistry knowledge, the fact I have ever used a microscope, and that I knew about contamination unprompted (it's a lab that involves trace elements, include Boron-- which is a pain-- so they care about contamination.)

But thanks to meeting with Honours supervisors, and an information session, and having to go see the sub dead about a thing that is resolved (grumblegrumblegrumble) I'm quite busy. Which is self inflicted, but still. I'm not sure where I'm gonna find the time to do assignments, both of the school kind and of the fandom kind. I'll work something out.

(...I've also just realised that over the weekend, I'm booked for a stressful and long event (a wedding), which is not only going to eat into my homework time, but which I'm doing instead of de-stressing horse riding time. Woops.)

Out of curiosity, why is Boron a problem? I don't know nothing about chemistry and I'm eager to learn.

Also, awwww heck, it always sucks to realise you haven't scheduled for proper downtime.

I dont know all the details, but as a trace its apparently a bit tricky to separate and not get contaminated and then measure it (though I'm not sure which of the three steps is trickiest)
