YO.

I love the quotation marks.

as you get older, you realize that you’re not always right and there’s so many things you could’ve handled better, so many situations where you could’ve been kinder and all you can really do is forgive yourself and let your mistakes make you a better person.

Onward, steed!

The Hand is here! Where is Voigt’s dinner? GUMBY IS HERE ALSO

If you have the time please read this it its entirety. It's so absolutely important to know the true value and necessity of vaccines. If you haven't gotten your immunizations, I implore to you get them, if not for yourself for the people around around and your loved ones.

Este mes

Siento una soledad frio y terrible sin el calor de tu corazon,

La culpa fue mia, pero me duele sin tu amor

Quisiera haberte dicho esto el 2 de este mes, pero me dolia demasiado escribirlo

Perdi el amor de alguien increible y maravillosa, y honestamente no se que hacer sin ti.

Puedo decir todo esto ahora, porque ya te estas alejando de mi, y aunque lo lamento, yo se que es lo mejor. 

Quiero ser mejor, porque algun dia, en algun futuro, yo espero encontrate y amarte otravez. Y cuando ese dia ocurre, espero que tu tambien quieras lo mismo. 

Te amo con una furia y dolor y no puedo explicar.

Espero que estes contenta, amor, y aunque ya no lo crees por la manera que he estado actuando, te extrano, nada va cambiar eso. 

Dear Neil, I think I've made a mistake. The thing is: I sent my manuscript to a small publishing house, that I really like (who have published my short story already). It was fine, they gave me feedback and said after that has been applied, they might like to publish my novel (no confirmation yet!). But it's my first novel ever. I've written/edited like 5-6 years. Maybe I should've let go long ago. The first novel isn't supposed to be published, right? It might have been a bad idea... Thoughts?

Either they will want to publish it, or they won’t. If they do, you didn’t make a mistake. If they don’t, then they’ll tell you, and you’ll be wiser than you were before, and that won’t have been a mistake either.

is it possible to study science/medicine/research and pursue that as a career, even if you've majored in a humanity for undergrad and really have no prior work experience in the research field?

Yes and no. 

You can go to medical school with no research experience (I did) but you will have to have the basic science pre-med background. You can major in whatever you want, though. 

To pursue a scientific career you’re going to have to have some sort of STEM background and training, whether it’s technical school or bachelors/master’s level education. It’s hard to know what the requirements are without knowing more specifically what type of job you are thinking of.

Careers in scientific research are very competitive, actually. There is huge pressure to publish and there are fights for grant funds and university positions. You could work as a lab assistant in some cases with on-the-job training, but in most cases you’re going to need a pretty solid STEM background if you are going to design or run experiments. You have to have learned the basic lab techniques and the science behind your research to be able to actually do the research. 

In all these cases, even with a degree in the humanities, you can go back to school and bolster your science credentials, but going in with no experience is going to be tough.
