one of my favorite memories of being on the radio is when one of my cohosts was like “hey i need some advice on something” and i was like “okay i can make time” and then just play sufjans impossible soul for the entire second half of our show

biologists, in front of potential donors/people they want to impress: Ah, yes, I’ve been studying epilepsy in the model organism drosophila melanogaster.  We’ve manipulated the flies’ genes such that we can view calcium levels in their glia bla bla bla other technical jargon that even they can barely understand.

biologists in lab: so yeah i think i accidentally made the flies gay?

MIT Mystery Hunt has left me with a sense of accomplishment, a new respect for chefs, a lion’s mane made of caution tape, and a search history full of songs, homestuck, and mbmbam references

11/10 would hunt again

“What’s MIT like, Sunny?” you might ask.

well ill tell you

someone emailed out to the whole school about a meet and greet to learn about the different neuroscience classes, but they forgot to bcc the dorm lists

so in retaliation someone else replied all and sent an episode of happy tree friends to the entire student body

i used to be an ALL CAPS ALL THE TIME type of person because i was super enthusiastic and full of the stubborn drive needed to get where i am today, but then something Bad happened and it knocked the wind out of me emotionally, and i felt like any enthusiasm was misplaced, and typing in all caps and being loud and excited became draining instead of energizing. and i spent an entire year trying to get back to where i was before, but i just... couldnt. there was too much pressure and too many things connecting me back to the Bad thing. but then i left. i went to college. i refreshed myself with learning, i made new friends who love me and want me around, and im not who i was, but at least ive found a place where i can be LOUD again.
