when i was a kid. an adolescent. i remember clinging to this hope that someday the people around me would think about the way they treated me and have this sudden realization that they were hurting me in massive, traumatic ways, and that one day they would wake up and suddenly shriek My god, what have i done to this child? and grab me by the shoulders and kneel down and go oh my god. oh my god i am so sorry for what i have done to you. and i remember realizing that that would never ever happen was maybe the best thing that couldve ever happened to me

For all you students who are suddenly finding yourself with online classes, here is list of graduate students who are willing to help out with anyone struggling and our specialties/areas of interests. We’re all colleagues and we’re all in this together! Let’s be a true academic community and support each other as much as possible in the coming months.

ceebycee - introductory physics, modern physics, quantum mechanics, astronomy, calculus (differential, integral, multivariable), linear algebra

@feamir - upper level physics and math

@andbeavillain - anything science and math related up to the university level, editing papers of any subject for clarity and grammar

@softcroft - biochemistry, biology (particularly genomics and transcriptomics), public health, epidemiology, social and behavioural health, PH biostats, organic chemistry, scientific writing, presentations, resume/CV/interview prep for bio sciences, Latin language

@cancerbiophd - biology (human physiology, mammalian cells, biology lab techniques, cancer), fellowship applications, grant writing, presentations, academic/scientific communication

irishfencer456 - biology (genetics, cell biology, signal transduction, intro biology subjects), technical writing, fellowship applications, grant writing, presentations, academic/scientific communication

@studyevergreen - environmental studies, biology, lower level chemistry, physiology, toxicology, environmental education, environmental governance, high school level subjects, proofreading and editing

@adelicateculturecell - general biology, genetics, basic chemistry

@xmarksthenerd - general biology, molecular biology, some orgo and biochemistry, algebra and geometry

thesleepiestsleepscientist - biochemistry, systems neuroscience, human physiology

@my-lions-mane - anatomy, human biology/anatomy, developmental biology, biochemistry, forensic toxicology, microbiology, interviews, applications, and statments

@narrativerehearsal - osteoarchaeology, archaeological science (isotopes, radiocarbon dating), skeletal anatomy and pathology, general archaeology and world prehistory, some medieval history (mainly British), some zooarchaeology

caffeinated-phd - computer science, Java, Scala, Python, C, C++, C#, Haskell, HTML, CSS, JavaScript

@professorerudite - English and Japanese

@myskyisempty - psychology, educational psychology, counseling and education

@gardenforsparrows - outdoor education/recreation, environmental education, environmental science, program evaluation, GIS, lower level english and literature

And speaking for myself, I’m more than happy to chat or answer questions about what I’m studying for anyone who’s curious, regardless of whether or not your studying it!

It you want to be on (or off) this list, just send me a message.

wish there were some unseen omnipotent voice shouting “WARMER” or “COLDER” everytime i make a decision because i am pretty much flying blind here

REBLOG IF ITS OKAY TO TALK TO YOU.

Please.

i hope you pursue what you love in 2020, supported and surrounded by people who are so happy to have you in their lives. i hope you realize that we grow from failure, and that the lessons you learn will benefit you so much. those bumps along the roads, the sad days, the doubting, things not turning out just the way you imagined they would - they will happen, and it will be okay. you’ll face it, you’ll survive, grow, and you’ll make a wonderful year for yourself, regardless, or indeed because of that.

in 2020, say no to the things you don’t want. speak up and advocate for yourself. make time to take care of yourself. treat yourself with respect and kindness and patience, because you deserve it.

For anyone that needs to hear it, I’m proud of you

kinda hope you’re thinking about me

My 1st Organic Chemistry Professor

Because, like my classical mythology prof, she’s great.

“Salt and water are like me and Justin Timberlake. If I get close enough to Justin, you’re not getting me off of him alone, like two ions. But if Justin has about 12 bodyguards that surround me, whether I like it or not, I won’t be with Justin.”

“Atoms just have a lot of feelings, okay?”

“Alright, so the hybrid looks kind of like a fat balloon.”

“So you’re gonna be drawing things again that don’t exist today, and I know, you’re probably thinking, ‘Stop doing that!’”

“Heaven forbid a man do something and not name it after himself.”

“It’s like me and Justin Timberlake, we’re super attracted to each other. Don’t doubt that, it’s true.”

“This is the only time I’m going to say that in order to solve the problem, you need to first drop some acid. Otherwise, doing acid isn’t a solution, it’s a problem.”

magic is real you fools it happens when you make your friends smile

Becca Stadtlander - Cards, date unknown

eye contact ft. you

who cares, do better, move on

So what’s next? You heal. You grow. And you help others.

i‘m so proud of you all
