new username new me

I decided to change my username, as it did not match my identity. I don't even know what a falcon is, but everyone knows what a beautiful majestic eagle is. beautiful and majestic, just like me. And 60 is a weird number, 69 is a much better number. looks like two people dancing

about egg and radishes new video: they left out some important facts about Seagulls. Read more to find out!

While Radish did an okay job of talking about Seagulls, I think she left out some very important information about the beautiful birds. That they are actually our cousins.

Yes. That is right ladies and gents. the beautiful bird seagulls are just, sea eagles. They were our ancestors who moved out way over to the sea many years ago, but every once in awhile we meet in a beautiful family reunion and it absolutely is just amazing and fantastic.

Don't believe me? the proof is in the name. if you say "sea-eagle" it actually sounds phonetically exactly identical to "seagull". A coincidence? I think not. it's the unmistakeable indication that we really are a related bird.

While I am happy in my high mountain living area, I do think every once in awhile about my dear cousins, the sea eagles who decided to go happily out of their way to fly all the way to the sea. I hope my dear cousins are out there enjoying all the fish they could possibly gobble up.

My last Karaoke Group

The group I went out with last time was a strange mix for sure. There were two types of people. Techbros (our brothers who predictably, work in tech, all part of the 'bald, white, bearded developers' coalition, their words not mine) and the other group, girls who don't speak English (we are all from the local medical university).

How did we get here

The techbros had all lived in the same building as me. I was doing a medical internship at the local medical uni at the time, but seeing as we shared coworking spaces, gym and bar I did eventually somehow manage to make friends there.

As for the girls, we all knew each other from medical Uni, this is in Poland so speaking English at the hospital isn't really a requirement. I ended up inviting my friends to come to Karaoke night with us, as there were some Polish songs we could sing. We ended up singing a mix of Polish and English songs.

All in all, I'd say a pretty successful Karaoke session. Some would consider this a strange group but honestly, I couldn't imagine a better one. The techbros were happy to hang around girls, and the girls wouldn't be there if they understood them.

Let it go by Elsa the Icequeen

A few days ago my boss told me „to let go“. Like don’t be too harsh to myself and others. Especially the children at my workplace. I think he meant something like don’t feel responsible for everyone and everything. But how can I do this if I have this feeling in my gut that I can do better than a lot of other colleagues. It’s like finding a thin line between responsibility and let five be straight (weird to translate German sayings into English). I’m really trying my best and I know I‘m really good at my job, but it leaves me exhausted at hell. So as part of a homework for myself I try to let it go. Leave the opportunity for others to do shit I always do.

Learning to be alone or: Getting lonely?

Our generation is wild. So many requirements from society. Be chatty, go out, meet friends, enjoy your hobbies. Everything is about being present and active. Even social media. Don‘t get me wrong. I enjoy all of these things. But most of the time, I just want to be alone. In my own little bubble, all by myself. Like charging my social battery to do all of this above. Even to be capable of doing these things. Exhausted from everything. From life outside, staying in my safe place. But how can it be so ambivalent? The need of going out, but also just would like to stay in. Communicating with no one. Some say it’s a task or something you have to learn, to be alone. For me it’s the easiest thing ever. But deep down there is a fear in me. Being alone now is my choice, but what if someday it isn’t a choice anymore and it turns into loneliness. So sealed off, no one gets to you. Physically and mentally.

The slow descent into postdoctoral madness

If you wont read any more posts or comments from me, youll realize that my descent into madness was a swift one. Im a last years phd student (in fact 6 months to go and 3 more months hopefully to write) in biology who is grasping to his last bit of sanity at the moment all the while sailing through the troubled waters commonly referred to as the "terrible last year". With work piling up from the last 2,5 years, multiple projects requiring attention and people expecting me to perform well, there is also a constant dread for my future career so the pressure is coming from the past, present and the future ready to gang up on you any time of the day. A general phd in life sciences (and i dont count medicine because its not a real science, sorry early falcon) includes 3-5 years of laboratory labor, depending where you live and how fucked or blessed you are with your supervisor. After the terrible last year, you are kicked out to write your thesis and depending where you life you can be lucky if youre still hired by then or if they lay you off to write your thesis on welfare (social programs yeeaahh am i right ?) By then you are ready to defend your thesis and earn your well deserved title, unless you have decided to quit at any of those moments, which i have seen people do from first year right up to only having to write everything together. Afriend of mine recommended me to start writing a journal book but im terrible with such things...
