The Life and Times
Of a Biochem Grad Student

I'm a 6th year graduate student at UCLA, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. The Great Y2K Bug: With some regularity, someone (family, friends, even random people I meet at Ralphs) asks me when I'm planning on graduating. My answer, usually in an irked tone, "2000 was the plan, but the reality appears to be beyond me."
Here is a photo of our class, at the end of our first year.
Mostly everyone has gone on to post-doc, teaching, and industrial positions. But we have our memories, and e-mail, thankfully so.

FROM WHERE

San Francisco How I miss my city...sigh.
Santa Clara University 1991 alumnae.

WINSOME

I have missed qualifying for Boston by 90 seconds on two attempts, despite two years of training with Track Club LA.
Yes, I am developing a complex about this.
I'm a little fanatic about UCLA basketball.
Given that Toby has graduated on to the NBA, I watch with less avidity these days.
Snowboarding is now in my vocabulary, thanks to Holly and a recent spring break trip to Heavenly Valley.
There's a black cat in the bag, named Doug.
And finally...I don't like to be called "Winnie"
