the sound of an orchestra tuning up makes me go crazyinsane it makes me start thinking about the eventual heat death of the universe and how someday somewhere an orchestra is going to tune up for the very last time. ever. and then the sun will swallow the earth & turn into a white dwarf & all the stars will go out & meanwhile a gazillion light years away sentient life will be evolving from silicon. and maybe they will have orchestras also

STEM wlw

the girls with guts. these girls have so much drive and ambition, plowing their way through a male-dominated field with intensity and success that can only be dreamed about. pencils tucked behind their ears, calculators stuffed in their pockets, notes scribbled haphazardly in countless notebooks, they take on the world. some of these girls love science, love to learn about the changes of the tide or the environment or how to mix different chemicals. some love math, love how everything always lines up so perfectly, love the exhilaration of finally figuring out a difficult equation. no matter what their passions are specifically, these girls are the next generation of geniuses.

today was the first day of my six week summer holiday and i’m already feeling very listless, so here is my plan for getting a big step up in russian. i’ve been loosely learning for a year so i know basic phrases and the alphabet but i want to use this time to really get to grips with it. so i’m posting this here because accountability is important! i’m hoping to fill up these sheets with vocab by the end too.

summer studying challenge 2: have your plans changed at all because of the pandemic?

YUP. i was meant to be at a space program at a university in june which got cancelled, me and my friends were going to go on a cycling holiday on a west coast island, and all in all i didn’t plan on feeling so down lmao!

last night i stayed up until 4am to watch for comet NEOWISE which i saw [first picture, faint smudge just above the tree in the centre] and was completely amazed by :D unfortunately i waited for three hours after seeing it to get a second look, but the clouds were very stubborn :( i am so tired today though lol

29th april 2019,

past papers, model papers, specimen papers, so many papers 📑 biology exam tomorrow! i’m a little nervous but i’m not really too worried 🧬

physics electricity notes

i don’t often post english notes but here’s some annotations on ‘the lottery’ (which has a truly AWFUL short film on youtube. it was probably filmed on a potato and has the longest, most awkward pauses between lines which are word for word the same as the story)

a cute lil plant themed weekly spread for my first full week back at school!

summer studying challenge: summer days or nights?

i’d have to say inbetween- i love dawn and dusk during summer because they’re so drawn out and beautiful.
