Chronicles from a Catalan Dolphin

This blog is about the crazyness-turned-laughing about living in USA and surviving to it.
Hey, better laugh about than cry about, right?

I write from Ohio, where I am doing my Ph.D. at Kent State University. Tough science, rough parties and global roomates...

What is it like combing a Monkey?

This is a reference to the University of Navarra Biophysics class. After realizing people preferred to sleep in class over understanding the mechanisms behind molecular motors, our professor Dr. Perez once said out loud : "Well, and to whomever doesn't like biophysics...then I recommend him to get a monkey and to comb it!" The remark was so so so over the top...I think it got carved in my mind forever. Though not a monkey, I got the chance of combing Pim's dog Snowball -a Siberian Husky- and it was a unique and exhilarating experience...One of those next to Trainspotting or counting the stars in the skies at night. I wanted to remove all his hair shedding, but the trick with this kind of activity is that his hairs never seem to run out...Yeah, maybe because I might be facing something like 2 o 3 trillions of them
