So I’ve decided to try my hand at blogging, I mean why put
interesting ideas to waste? Warning in advance, I am a scientist (well will be
in a bit starting my undergrad year doing biochemistry)
But sometimes I wonder, aren’t we all just a lifesize
version of a textbook, we grow taller: mitosis, develop fingers: apoptosis. All
of our thinking and being can be traced down and broken into the firing of
neurons and division of cells. I know its more complicated than that but it
makes sense. But what presses the buttons on our remote control? (not an actual
one, the central nervous system would be appropriate here) this is usually the
starting points of debates but I wont go there. Anyways that what I find really
fascinating, and if you do too that’s great!
The hot topic right now seems to be going to university, and
I’ll be going to university (Yaay, God willing) But what do I do now, I’ll be
commuting, the whole journey is around 40 minutes so that should be fine. But
that does mean that I’ll be missing out on the whole “university experience”
I’ve heard so much about it, I’ve even met some people who live near the uni
that live on campus for that particular reason. Bummer. But what I have done is logged on to the
student room and seen if I could find other people doing my course, I honestly
don’t know what I was expecting when I did,
I found one other person so yh. I think the whole uni experience thing
is over rated though from what I hear its all about the night life, bars and
getting drunk. But I’m a Muslim so those things are off my list, hopefully I’ll
find something though. I don’t know but I’ve always wanted to be in some sort
of group, not like the ones that you see in American high schools though, where
you see a group of jocks and cheerleaders etc. but like a group of people that
share the same interests as me, like a debating society or a drama club.
Definitely a sports team though, I’ve always wanted to join a serious girls
football team, I have once when I was in year 9 (aged 13) anything after that was non-competitive and
most of the girls only did it because they found the PE teacher attractive
(typical). So I cant wait to play competitively again.
For those of you lucky enough to be moving out, I wish you
the best of luck. And for us commuters, we need to find ourselves something to
do hombres. I don’t know about you guys but after results day I threw my A
level material out, well, except for the textbooks I’ve bought which I’m still
contemplating on selling or keeping just in case I need them for my first year.
