Ok turns out I actually didn’t like boys ! 😆💅✨I just liked their attention oopsie

Screaming into the void because I like (a different) boy!!!!! I think maybe he like(s/d) me? No idea. Man. Feelings be weird.

Screaming into the void because I like a boy!!!!!! I danced with him (drunkenly) and it was probably the most romantic thing EVER (even more than when I was with my ex) AND NOW THIS GUY WONT EVEN LOOK AT ME ??? I think maybe he’s just v e r y shy but BRO SO AM I????

But what if he doesn’t like me? And he just was also drunk? BROOOO IDKKKKK

Hey autism tumblr!

I’ve got a question- for a (very) long time in my life (about 7 years) I’ve been thinking I might be on the spectrum. I’ve done TONS of research and I think I relate to everything/most of the things I’ve read online and in books.

I’ve done several online tests (I know these are not SUPER reliable when administered solo) and they’ve all scored pretty high on the “you might be on the spectrum” scale.

I’ve always been very different from my peers and since I was small my friends / teachers noticed, which often caused me to be very alienated. Aside from this, all my close friends / people I imideatley get along with are on the spectrum and I’ve always felt…. I guess seen by them.

Currently, I’m debating getting tested as I’m not sure how the outcome would affect my life from a financial POV (country I live in has some weird laws about insurance for people with certain health conditions). My therapist and academic councillor think I may be on the spectrum but both have told me to seek help externally with a qualified doctor for this type of stuff. I’ve also recently been diagnosed with severe anxiety and sensory issues- the anxiety is not new knowledge but the sensory issues was a bit though in hind sight it perhaps shouldn’t have been.

Should I be able to consider myself autistic as all things point to this and some doctors (although not qualified to administer tests) agree with this ?

Also, are there any good resources I should look into? The sensory issues got diagnosed thanks to me starting to use headphones randomly and feeling …. Ok with the world (was not allowed to use them but idc anymore lol) and I’m wondering if perhaps there are other ways I could make navigating this world easier for me that I do not know of yet.

Thanks!

Fellas we’ve secured a thesis advisor…. But I’m scared of the thesis 🫠🫠 anyone fw non-linear quantum photonics ??

[not-your-enph-student]

We’re playing astroparticle theorist simulator this summer it seems

[not-your-enph-student]

Anyone have any tips for applying to grad school? Specifically in physics in Canada ?

[not-your-enph-student]

Also, why are quantum systems so??? So crazy??? Like who gave them permission to do that?

[not-your-enph-student]

Today! I found out profs ACTUALLY talk about students. Like, they KNOW. I had one prof know I’m working in the department this summer (I did NOT tell him) and he was like :) I know you’re working for us!

Y’all. I like, now want to know every single opinion everyone in the faculty has of me

[not-your-enph-student]

SO ANYWAYS ya boi somehow landed a pretty snazzy position for this summer and is super excited!! I’ve got a meeting with my supervisor tomorrow, wish me luck!

[not-your-enph-student]

Ya boi got dat interview RIZZ now tell me why I’m panicking over choosing 3 internships… I mean; two are excellent bc I’ve wanted to work in that field (theory) for a long time, however the new girl in the block (nano photonics) kinda making me doubt myself…. I need this sorted out by TOMORROW (it’s currently 12:35 am, so I guess LATER TODAY)….. yay

[not-your-enph-student]

Why are summer coops so hard to apply to? The deadlines are always announced late (at least for me/my school). They also NEVER like my cover letters…. Horrible truly.

Anyways. How do you choose what coop to do? I fr love all of physics and therefore CANNOT choose.

[not-your-enph-student]

Why must the states be solid? Who made the states solid? What if I like my states liquid. Or gas. Why must my device’s states be solid?!

AHH solid state

[not-your-enph-student]

When the quantum…. Is quantum-ing but you’re too sleep deprived so it’s actually quantum squared? Yeah.

[not-your-enph-student]

8:30 am lab….. will the stepper motor gods be on my side this time? Stay tuned!

[not-your-enph-student]

Labs. Labs! Why are labs always so hard? But not really. The weight of having to write one sentence. One word. A singular letter. SO MUCH! Anyways. Yeah, lasers are still cool.
