of good news and bad news

I just became a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Research Fellow! Yay!!

And I just signed my lease to my new house! The house has Venetian plaster walls and a gorgeous kitchen, a beautiful lawn and yard with a pond with kois, and a garage to park the car and I got a BIG room (415 USD a month!). And did I add: I live opposite the cinema and Schnucks (the nice grocery shop) and St. Louis Bread Company and Outback Steakhouse and Applebees!




Oh, I have to stay at least 10 weeks in St. Louis over the summer for the fellowship internship. =(

Anyone wants to come visit?
