It is Snowing! AGAIN!

After 4 days of absence, the snow has fallen upon Tsuruoka again. Except that it didn't really fall as snow. Something like hail, except that these are smaller pieces of ice. To give you a clearer picture, you can download the movie (1 min long) in my links of movies (at the toolbar on the right). In the video, you can see and hear the small pieces of ice tapping against the window. Very different from rain. Below are some pictures too. You can no longer see the mountain in the landscape picture as it was very foggy.



We went to a fish festival last Sunday. It was very crowded, but we didn't buy anything. Though we did take some pictures. Iwakami-san and Takatoshi-san has more pictures, but not sure if they are gonna post them up. (Lolz!)




Iwakami-san had to draw pictures of biological objects for the molecular editor. You know, amino acids, proteins, ribosomes, etc. The thing is, in order to draw the object, he has to specify the coordinates in the Python script. So there he was, doing trial and error, and after some hard work (really hard work! actually stayed overnight to do it...), this was what he drew for a protein!


Guess what? Gabor actually thought it looked like an... an... a BUTT! LOLZ! Actually I thought of it that way too... Lolz... The best part is, coincidentally, Likai (one of the students from China) just walked in, so Gabor asked him what he thought it was. After a few seconds of pondering, he grabbed Gabor's butt! Everyone burst out laughing! I guess sometimes, action speaks louder than words...

The next few days are gonna be hectic for me. My task is well, a bit huge, but I'm taking it a step at a time. I guess Iwakami-san and Takatoshi-san are doing fine, as they looked fine. Lolz. We'll see about that soon.
