45/100 Days Of Productivity!

in my academic weapon era ✍️

6/feb/2025, thursday

wasted most my time after school

subsequently had a lil mental breakdown & then pulled myself out of spiraling in a lowk mature way

washed my hair

prepared for psychology practical/viva

💤 3-4 hrs - maybe this is the reason my mental health has been a bit shit. looking forward to sleeping properly & FINISHING MY PORTIONS BEFOREHAND SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO STAY UP LATE STRESSING

Zoe // 16 // she/her/hers // INTJ

Currently studying physics, chemistry, computer science, calculus, photography. Topics in physics I’m learning about are E&M, thermodynamics, relativity, standard model, cosmology, high-energy astrophysics, and fluids.

I’m interested in dark matter and CMB research. My academic goals right now are mostly focused on getting into university with a major in physics. I want to get a PhD in either physics or astrophysics and work in academia doing cosmology research.

Other fun facts: I play golf and am training in calisthenics. I really like listening to music and I have a really cute cat (he’s a little chunky tho). My favorite show is Voltron Legendary Defender, and my favorite movie is a tie between Oppenheimer and The Social Network.

✦ 4. 5. 25 ✦📓✦ Sunday ✦ 28 days until exams

🗒 What I did today:

history summary (almost done)

physics study

art assignment idea sketch

emails...

I was like: Hm, I don't feel awake, I need something to give me energy and preferrably has a bitter taste to keep me going - fully forgetting that coffee exists. After an embarassing long time I remembered and made myself some.

Also I need to lock in more, like much much more; I tried to do math and immediately closed the paper because ain't no way I'm doing that - problem is: I literally have to TT. Ehhh I probably have to think this through again. A month left until my last high school written exams - let's hope I sort this out in time. Right now I'm still vibing somehow

Messier 66 taken by Hubble Space Telescope on January 28 2021

In this picture, it showcases the star forming regions of the galaxies, which can be seen in red. Star forming regions are vulnerable to disturbances, which can cause the gas in the interstellar medium to collapse into dense clumps of material. These are called protostars.

During the formation of these protostars, gravitational energy is converted into thermal energy. If there is enough thermal energy produced, it is enough to spark nuclear fusion. The star then joins the main sequence.

Due to nature of the star forming regions, it often yields the creation of star clusters, since many stars are being created in close proximity. Large stars especially can emit radiation and produce stellar winds, which pushes the star away from these regions.

lazed tf out of sunday

Vela Supernova Remnant taken on February 6 2021 by jeff2011 on Astrobin

The supernova remnant resides within the Vela constellation, having exploded over ten thousand years ago. It is the closes supernova remnant to Earth. Observational data from this remnant provided proof that supernova’s can produce neutron stars.

Supernovas occur at the end of a star’s life. Stars with mass over eight solar masses finish burning the hydrogen in their core and become a red supergiant. Successive fusion then occurs until the core contains iron. Fusion can no longer occur at iron since it is not energetically favorable. Gravity then takes over leading to a supernova explosion— expelling a huge amount of stellar material.

Neutron stars can form as a result of this, as protons and electrons collide to combine into neutrons. The neutron stars are stable by neutron degeneracy pressure. This pressure is caused the Pauli Exclusion principal which prevents neutrons from having the same positions.

i have too much to do but not enough time 🥲

28/jan/2025, tuesday

tiring day as usual but i pushed through!!

woke up at 6 (maybe i should try not falling asleep for hours after skl if that results with me waking up early without any alarm despite going to bed past 1 a.m.)

light stretching + exercise

did ok on the eng group presentation in school today but at least it's done

searched for poetry contest

physics lab record

duolingo lesson

practiced playing keyboard
