a friendly visit

On my day off, I was fortunate to enough to have my adviser, Dr. Jeff Huebschmann to stop by in Omaha. I really enjoyed this since I could show him where I have been working this whole time. Unfortunately, we did not have enough time for me to show him the whole zoo and the line was too long to see the Kingdoms of the Night. This complex had his one and only favorite animal, bats.  However, he did enjoy the areas that I am currently interning at now and where I will be in two weeks for the remainder of the summer. Throughout the day, we talked about how cool this internship is and how this experience will really earn me competitive brownie points on my resume.....I mean, make me a good candidate for a future job. Jeff seemed to be really impressed by how much the zoo has changed the last time he has been there to now, how I know all the animals by name and be able to tell who is making the noises. In addition, we also talked about how I could possibly be a guest speaker to our university's biology club or talk to other biology students and inspire them to get involved with their major. I hope my achievements during my collegiate career will give UW-Platteville a good name and help others obtain their dream career.
