Colloquium speaker today was one of the labs I applied to for grad school 2 years ago!!! :D Current PI awkwardly asked "do you know each other?" and then realized maybe an awkward question. Hehe.
They reformatted the grad-colloquium chat session, and this one was like the best I've been to! Also undergrad in the lab who's applying to speaker's lab also got to sneak in and make a good impression and then introduce himself :D Colloquium speaker was really good at talking to students outside his area, which is part of what made the chat session so good.
Also note about sleep: couldn't sleep in bc I have too good of a circadian rhythm and so woke up at my normal time and was tired despite free coffee in the morning (incl. 2 espresso shots), and also probably not very able to mask my emotions at seeing creepy professor at colloquium. Annoying. But the talk was good.
