Living Life As A Science-Lover Makes Everything 10 Times More Fascinating

It's a lot more complex than most people would think because you think of everything more complex than most people.

Living Life As A Science-Lover Makes Everything 10 Times More Fascinating
Mikaela Cok

I can remember doing one of my first science experiments with magnets in 3rd or 4th grade... I was in awe of how incredible something so simple was so complex. I didn't really understand science all that well until I got into high school, but it was always so fascinating, and from that day forward I have lived life as a science-lover.

It's a lot more complex than most people would think because you think of everything more complex than most people...

So imagine this... Your strolling through a set of trees and all is good and fine, but you start to look at the trees and their color and then really start to think about the color spectrum and photosynthesis and it is just all downhill from there. That is literally what life is like everywhere you go being a science-lover.

The worst part about being a science-lover is that people who aren't science-lovers don't understand why you think the way you do, and they also think it is kind of or completely weird. But I get that it's not normal to stare up into the sky and pick out the different types of clouds instead of just looking for shapes.

Most of the time I just keep my science jokes and thoughts to myself, because it can be really overwhelming if you do it all the time.

Speaking of science jokes, that is another thing that comes with being a science-lover... Always taking normal jokes and turning them into some joke about body functions or scientific functions. For example... "Do you know any jokes about Sodium?... Na"

I mean as lame as they sound, us science-lovers will literally start dying laughing because it is so ridiculously funny, but not everyone gets it. I honestly think if everyone gave some sort of science a chance they would find these jokes blatantly funny too.

To the math, English, nutrition, writing, and all other lovers out there, I totally feel your pain when people look at you crazy when you make references or jokes about your passion.

Living life as a science -over is certainly a treat because it's like seeing the world from two different perspectives. I really believe it makes me appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of everything that much more, so I am thankful to have such a strong passion for science, it really makes life cell-tastic!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
