Life is really boring!
Filed Under Daily
After a week of discovery and acclimation to Manchester, I am again bored. Everything is over and I am enduring the afterward effect of high level adrenaline. The relaxation time is dead boring!
I had a surprise this morning, my boss from Australia wrote to me and asked for some forcefield parameters. The postdoc who was supposed to take over is still struggling with the system. I doubt he will ever go far because he is not a computational chemist. I, of course, sent him all the documentation and my own personnal notes because my ex-Australian boss was extremely nice to me when I was there. He was the only person I could work with in peace. He knew the political game in academia very well but he also recognised my hard work. I almost wanted to propose him to pay me part time so that I can continue working for him while doing my IP course here in Manchester. That would be cool! I never wrote back to anyone there, in my old australian lab. I never looked back and I never regretted anything. I am sure someday I will pay for my pretention but, at this time of my life, my past has always given me pain. I prefer to ignore it and look for hope in the future.
