being a stem major with high love for humanities feels like being in a business marriage with a rich high class wife and having a constant affair with a dark academia mistress

June 1st, 2024 | Day 6 of 100 day productivity challenge

I’ve been taking a bit of a social media break in an effort to break my phone addiction and it’s worked a little bit. Slow progress is still progress. Today I decided to do some self care and dilly dally at the bookstore and work on some writing I’ve been doing in my free time to reset my brain. Definitely helping. 📖💻

Happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈

I want so many trinkets and clips and bits on my traveler’s journal that it takes me 5 minutes to even get into it for me to actually write in it.

my finals are over!! my first year of graduate school finished... I didn't take any pictures during the week while studying besides this one at the library haha. also i found a professor to start research with over the summer, the first assignment is to help with a supernova Ia literature search :D

i love you vaccines i love you research i love you reading the book instead of having chatgpt summarize it i love you critically thinking rather than reacting to a headline i love you investigating the source material i love you science i love you math even though you are personally my enemy (math/yn slowburn) i love you writing even though you try to stab me a lot i love you Experts in Your Field i love you Using The Brain

A cosmic tribute to my current favourite comment in YouTube history

fucking love when I'm on a call with someone and they start to do a little errand or go somewhere else and they say "and you're coming with me" like. absolutely I am let's go on an adventure I've been spirited away

i'm finally back on a macbook again 🥹 i managed to replace the screen today and not a moment too soon, the warranty on my windows laptop just expired and it was starting to act funky again. i'm hoping this gives me the kick i need to get this math class done and move on with my semester

13.05.25 —Working on a presentation rn that needs to be done by 8 this evening and it reminds me of what I don’t like about university. First, I have to do it alone, despite the fact that the prof said it would be groups of two to three. Just no one else was interested in the topic I volunteered for so now I'm the only one working alone while everyone else in the seminar will work with two partners. Prof could have done something about this but I guess they didn’t care. I also have to present it all alone later, which is never something I look forward to, but it becomes a whole lot worse when I have to do it all alone. Nice.

I have to read six whole papers in the span of a weekend when everyone else has to read just two. And I have to figure out an outline for the presentation completely by myself and then judge which aspects to allocate what amount of time to. Something I could use critical feedback on. And half assing it feels so bad when I'm the only one who worked on the presentation. Life could really be better at the moment.
