Just Woke Up And All I’m Thinking About Is Research 😓

sometimes i wish anime characters were real so i can just chill with them

Working as a researcher has made growing older an even scarier concept to me.

The idea of aging became more tangible when I constantly started engaging with knowledge, observing changes, and understanding the fragility of things on a deeper level. It’s not just about the number of years but what those years do to you, your body, your senses, your ability to create and experience fully.

The thought of limitations creeping in is so terrifying.

Decided to take it up a notch and dress up for work. Not sure if the people looking at me are judging me or if they like my outfit. but ok

Very pro weird girl. Not budging on that.

I love meeting new people. I love the rush of it, the excitement of the unknown, of knowing that this moment, this brief collision of lives, could become anything. A lifelong friendship. A fleeting romance. A long term relationship. A friend I’ll lose along the line. A handful of conversations, a series of polite hellos and how are yous, before we go back to being strangers (this piece is too long so I’ll probably share it in a separate post)
