Finish in Four

I stumbled upon some good fortune in my college career. As I moved closer to leaving the silver spoon existence of college, the message from the outside world was loud and clear: I needed job experience--a chance to get my foot inside the door. I went to town applying to every biotech lab on God's green earth. Finally, by dumb luck I was hired as an assistant. After keeping my nose to the grind and my fingers crossed, I have now been offered a full time position once I receive my one-way ticket out of UCSD. Although I would be starting at the bottom of the totem pole, I hope my plan to shoot for the moon will land me a PhD in several years' time.
