I'm doing research made of FAIL

It's bad enough to get one rejection from an agency for funding, but to get TWO, that just makes me feel full of fail. *sigh*

Freakin' researchers with their freakin' exciting and glamorous research on freakin' bioluminescent jellyfish and their freakin' corals and their freakin' blueberries, not letting those of us who are doing freakin' research on freakin' things that aren't glamorous, like wild grass, but are still FREAKIN' IMPORTANT, DARN IT. *muttermutter*

Now if you could just sin against nature and gene splice your grass into a mouse's forehead, you'd be set for life.

Don't feel bad, NC State turned down my PhD application outright, now I have no idea what I'm doing.

That could be interesting, although I think I like Eien-chan's idea better--get some of those bioluminescent jellyfish and make glowing grass. We could have glowing lawns!

I'm sorry to hear your application got turned down. :/ I was looking forward to the idea of geektastic lunches.
