‘Tis a fearful thing to love what death can touch. A fearful thing to love, to hope, to dream, to be – to be, And oh, to lose. A thing for fools, this, And a holy thing, a holy thing to love. For your life has lived in me, your laugh once lifted me, your word was gift to me.
To remember this brings painful joy. ‘Tis a human thing, love, a holy thing, to love what death has touched.” ― Yehuda HaLevi (req by anon)

New Horizons: A Bayou Girl in the Nations Capital
June 1, 2018
As I kissed my family goodbye and entered the airport on my way to my internship in a city I had never once set foot in, I could only wonder what lay ahead. My emotions were a tangled mess of fear, excitement, anxiousness, but overall hopefulness. I wanted to make an impact in my incoming internship. I wanted to make friends and connections, and most of all I wanted to learn. Washington D.C was new territory for me. I went from my usual relaxed streetcars to the hustle and bustle of the subways in a fast paced metro.
D.C is very different from New Orleans. The care-free fun loving place I’d grown up in was known for letting les bon temps roulez and its jovial atmosphere of music, dancing and culture. Here in DC, the people are cordial , but they won’t say hello to you on the street as you carry on with your day. It’s as if everyone is in a hurry to get from one destination to the next and will literally run you over if you get in his or her way. I presume I’m getting a taste of the real world, and no one ever said it would be sweet.
During my first week at the QEM I made lots of friends and I can honestly say I’m excited for what’s to come. My roommates are all smart, beautiful young women with so much talent and drive that I can say that I’m excited for what their futures hold. As for me, I have my worries, but I know I can push through. Just yesterday my peers and I went to the National African American Museum and ventured through all of the floors. Witnessing the history our ancestors went through and the sacrifices made so that people like me could stand here today and prosper; it was overwhelming to say the least.
I know I can’t let their hard work go in vein. There is still so much work to do and they lay the framework, but its time for us to keep building for our future generations. Through various organizations like Black Lives Matter, NSBE, SHPE, and QEM black and brown leaders of today are working and building so that our children and their children will have a better tomorrow.
And I won’t let them down.
Getting It Down to a Science
June 8,2018
After a wonderful orientation week at QEM, I finally began my first week at National Science Foundation (NSF). After a great orientation lecture from Mrs. Sherri Green and former QEM members who obtained PhD’s in various STEM fields, I really felt motivated and uplifted seeing and being able to talk to former mentee’s in person and face to face. Once orientation day was done, we finally were able to meet our mentors.
Meeting ones mentor and getting a feel of what work one will be doing as your time as an intern is always a nerve-wrecking moment for any intern. The uncertainty of whether or not your mentor will be an angel or a demon from hell brings a few moments of pause for any intern. Will the rest of my 10 weeks here a great learning and networking experience or a nightmare? I am more than happy to say that my mentor is the absolute best and smartest person in the world. Am I over exaggerating? Well maybe, but not really.
My mentor is a kind and intelligent chemist who received her doctorate from MIT. As a woman in STEM I know she had to work hard to get where she is and to be accepted and respected by her peers. Upon first meeting me, she greeted me with a bright smile and cheerful eyes and welcomed me into the fold of other peers who also happen to be more women in STEM. Within my first week I met women from all around the country and the world who are received PhD’s in biology, chemistry, geosciences and engineering. It was then I knew this would be a great relationship. She made sure to welcome me into the fold and she and many women like her inspire me to excel.
This week was a perfect introduction to what is going to further my knowledge in the sciences. I have an intelligent group of mentors who are willing to offer help and guidance at every turn; and then my own space to explore and find my way throughout my projects. I am excited for what’s to come.
Networking: Using that Southern Charm
June 17, 2018
Only 13 people. That’s how many people I have connected with on my LinkedIn since creating it 2 weeks ago. Granted, it may seem like not a bad number to some, but for someone who needs to network and make connections as a black woman in STEM, only 13 people is disgraceful. Perhaps it’s the fact that I’m stuck in my office all day and don’t really have time to interact with too many people at work, or maybe it’s that I’m usually worn out after the day and just want to go home and rest, or maybe I’m just getting lazy and was long overdue for a wake up call. The fact of the matter is, I need to get to networking.
I typically feel more comfortable around people of color like myself, I gravitate to those who I know will understand me and who I feel will see me as an equal, which is most likely to be people of color and other women. Yet, in the field of engineering which is mostly a white male dominated field networking can be brutal. It’s a boys club to say the least. A white boys club. A lot of their events are at country clubs or golfing tournaments and it won’t be unusual to be the only black person in attendance, much less the only black woman. However, I can’t let that stop me from interacting with people who I need to make connections with to achieve my goals.
Working at NSF has been a great experience, but I can’t help but notice that when I walk down the halls the only black women on my floor are the ones who work in the front desk as receptionist. There is one black man out of 50-60 people who is also a scientists and on my first day of work at NSF he kindly introduced himself and told me the game. “As a black woman I have to try much harder to succeed in this world”, he didn’t sugarcoat a thing. I enjoyed his talk and his bluntness and it was great having someone to confide in about the complexities of race and the workplace.
At the end of the day, racial equality is a long way from coming and till then we need to do our best to navigate this world and learn to survive in it. Looks like I’m going to have use some of my Southern charm and flash those pearly whites to make friends. Networking. It’s not easy for some. It called netWORKING for a reason.
Indirect statements in 5x08
They literally smacked us over the head with how much Klaus loved Hayley last episode.
First Klaus saying Elijah killed Hayley and he’s killing Antoinette and how he wouldn’t want to disrupt that balance.
How is no one going to mention the symbolism of these very direct statements. Elijah killed the woman Klaus loves and so Klaus is taking the woman this pseduo-Elijah loves. Klaus indirectly saying he was in love with Hayley.
Then Kol saying how Elijah killed his wife and saying don’t worry I got her back. But then saying some people aren’t that lucky.
Indirectly talking about Klaus losing Hayley forever. Hayley was Klaus’s wife! Davina turned Kol into a Klayley shipper.
Rebekah basically saying the only reason he didn’t rip Elijah and Hayley apart was because he knew if Elijah loved Hayley he’d never leave him.
We all knew Klaus never shipped Haylijah. He tolerates that shit because he was scared of losing them.
When Klaus told Elijah the reason he loved Hayley.
“Not because of some family obsession but because of her, because she believed in something better for all of us and because she fought for it when we couldn’t.”
Oh Klaus that was just one of the reasons you loved Hayley. Not because she was Hope’s mom or because you considered her family.. But because she fought for you, even when you couldn’t fight for yourself. Klaus projecting his feelings for Hayley onto Elijah , yet again.
Then the last scene which was devastating. Klaus reading those letters and finally letting himself feel how much he loved her. It’s part of why he wanted Freya out of the room so badly. He still to this day doesn’t want anyone to know how much he loves her. Not even himself
Again it wouldn’t make any sense to tell Elijah that in that state because he didn’t even remember her. And as I said before he was responsible for her death like he was Davina’s. Considering the fact that Kol saw how Klaus was broken up over the fact Elijah got Hayley killed and that was literally the scene that prompted Kol taking Elijah to the compound with him it makes perfect sense that Kol was talking about Klaus and potentially Hope.

Kol was gone for most of season 3 and 4. He never actually saw Hayley and Elijah for most of it. It was only things he heard from others and what he was told. However to say Kol didn’t think Klaus loved Hayley is untrue. The whole family loved Hayley. So much so kol was even mad that they gave Hayley him room. The fact that Klaus was pissed at Elijah for killing Hayley and Kol even had to take Elijah with him so Klaus and Elijah wouldn’t start fighting is why they even were alone to have the talk in the first place. Elijah saw that Elijah and Klaus were about to come to blows about what he did to Hayley. Klaus even disavowed Elijah and said he wasn’t his brother because he killed Hayley. The same people who said always and forever. Kol could see Klaus wasn’t just upset he was enraged and betrayed over what Elijah did. Hayley is the mother of Klaus’s child and Klaus’s family. It doesn’t really matter if Klaus loved her romantically like Kol loves Davina. What matters is Kol could that see that Klaus loved Hayley,and that’s what was paralleling to.Elijah once again taking someone they love away.

Kol was at the compound for literally a few weeks at most for Eli and Hayley’s relationship. He didn’t see them evolve or what it was even really based on. All he knew at the time was the Elijah didn’t love Hayley or that it wasn’t as great as his love for Antoinette. Which is literally why he allowed Hayley to die. Klaus was the only broken up over Hayley. The only one grieving her and even was willing to disavow Elijah for killing her. It was pretty clear to anyone paying attention that Klaus loved Hayley. Platonically or romantically it really makes no difference. Elijah was again responsible for killing someone of them loved and unlike Davina Hayley wasn’t coming back. Elijah squinting his eyes literally meant nothing because that’s how Daniel always is.
I should’ve been there for you and for Hope.

“ …you and i, born a thousand years apart, and all of the petty crap that brought us to that one night in mystic falls. it’s been hard… but the truth is, i watched her curled up next to that dying woman, and i knew i wouldn’t change a thing.”
