Born to live in a secluded area, forced to live in the city

Honestly, the idea that vampires don't go into the sunlight because their skin sparkles is genius.

Dune was cool, but it would've been cooler if the women in the story weren't reduced to "mother/ possible mother" and/or "witch".

They talked my fav stats professor (who quit the uni for good) into coming back and teaching stats for PhD students, which is good for me, but idk how good it is for him

When I finally thought that I'm free from yearning for Someone In the Future, I started yearning for People from My Past. Cannot I just be normal

Thinking about the "ethics assignment" chat group with my lab mates, which has been dead silent for 5 years. We promised each other to meet if we ever visited one another's country. I miss them.

I know that being a part of some social organisation or profession, where you're not really fitting in because of who you are, is a step closer in making people like you fit in the said structure, but god is it tiring to be a black sheep everywhere you go, your existence being a fighting stance always, and being ridiculed for it; everyone will question what are you even doing there and why don't you simply change who you are, and assume you clearly don't know how the world works

almost 20 years later from when i first saw it, i decided that i want to see the nutcracker ballet when i have the capacity to understand it (sorry mom i didn't really get it when i was 6), but it's sold out until january 💀

The funny thing is, I really want to romanticise my death and what will happen to my body. I keep thinking about returning to earth, in letting my organic matter dissolve and become life again. I also think about getting burned, with my ashes left there to scatter and be a part of everything once again. Or rotting in the sea, to be eaten by creatures to fuel their life. You got me, the whole circle thing.

But I have agreed that my body goes to medicine and/or science after my death, and I will never reach those connections I want to romanticise.

Which, in turn, made me crave death less. So it's a win.

Very uncomfortable by the idea that one must somehow market themselves to be considered as someone's relationship prospect.

you need charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent to become a modern scientist

Every Saturday I come alive and every Sunday I die.

Whispering in your ear: you want to study physiology

Have no idea if I should go running outside when it's 3 degrees Celsius and I'm still coughing from my cold. I believe the last run was what made me sick in the first place. But it's honestly 50/50 it could make me better and it could make me worse
