Hi guys im working on this initiative that promotes girls in space (hence the name) and increases exposure to lesser known aspects of space exploration. The end goal is to hold workshops and stuff thru chapters but before we get there we need people to know we exist and our mission, thats why im rolling out batches of internships to build this program up. The first batch is the social and comms team, i need journalists researchers and social media designers! Interns will have the opportunity to be evaluated for director and officer positions !! Our insta is @/girlsin.space and this is the application form! https://forms.gle/izeHtpefVDMG8BuM9 you get to work with cool topics like fashion and space, skincare in space, and sm more pslpspspsls

This isnt the typical post but i have a one week residential program and im genuinely wondering if i rlly need a mattress topper. Like is it a hygiene or comfort thing because I honestly sleep great on hard mattresses (especially the ones in asia and the floor too). Has anyone just been freeballing? Like its on the packing list but im not tryna blow money on a mattress i wont need for myself for a week when i dont have to yk?

I intend to major in biophysics, maybe dual with BME depending on where i get in. Bht biophysics is only offered by a select few unis, so for others i plan on simply dual majoring in Bio and Physics. But ik on college apps they want u to list ur intended major, how does that work if it varies by uni for me? Or is it just like a general sense? Im very confused

If you’re a rising junior, keep your friends close to heart and give yourself and them grace. Junior year is definitely one of the most rigorous and competitive years, and can bring out the worst in us. My friends and I were a victim to this, we all got busy as expected but we also began shutting each other out, distrusting, and didn’t help each other as much as we should have as friends because we were so competitive, insecure even, envious maybe, and of course drained. This wasn’t specific to anybody, we all had these moments throughout the year and we all distanced a bit. But now that the year is wrapping up and there are weights off of our shoulders, i cannot tell u how happy i am to be living as myself and seeing my friends return to themselves as well.

This week, somethinb as simple as having my hand held, a head pat, and a hug all separately were enough to make me almost cry right then and there because i missed them so much even tho they were right there.

So if you’re going to be a junior, make sure to try ur best to stay a good friend to others and urself. If you’re a rising senior, go hug your friends and tell them how smart and beautiful they are and don’t let the college admissions system turn u into an applicant before a friend. Ask about something they want to do this summer instead of what they got on the test, tell them their outfits adorable instead of saying theyre “so locked”, talk to them about a future you see them in instead of saying “we’re cooked” i promise its so fulfilling

Theyre all so college application shaped with the transcript, ECs, ESSAYS. So im a little worried that something is wrong with me. Im not worried about the fsct i have no programs because its clear that its more correlation than causation but im just worried my applying skills are popo.

I dont understand why i do this. Its so .. episode like too. For context, I have a goal to host a workshop for smth this summer, i have lots of ideas for lots of things i feel like a ball bouncing off walls. But for someone reason I have this image of me waiting at the venue, waiting and waiting, box of cookies in hand, and nobody shows up. Im all alone and looking down, and honestly reminds me of my younger self. Its just a mental image, ive tried getting rid of it but every time jt makes me cry. I have similar but different images as well, like an image of me all sad and rotting away. I dont understand why i have this separate version of myself that I don’t fully identify with, but feel so sad and hurt for, like watching a sad movie and im the actress. Likei cannot keep dropping tears over this. Im more curious what the psychology behind this even is. Sometimes it happens with my parents too, i imagine my dad — who i can barely imagine as a child—being so small once ans going thru what he did and I just feel so sad. Everything gets so so so sad even if i have so so so much to look forward to this weird sense of dejection or preparation for disappointment ruins it. Is it just me and if anyone else has done this what worked to like, cope. I honestly feel like pinkie pie from my little pony a lot. While shes the happy one—and i can become really optimistic quick too—and tries to not get sad, her sadness is so complex when she does. Im just saying nonsense now.

my dads actually on some bs. Like idk what his issue is hes always pulling some scheme or act that he’s gonna leave rhe family. Like he always says some “oh u guys dont love me” but he literally flies away to rot in our home country for months on end 🥸 and then during my uncs wedding he wss like “oh this isnt working ur family disrespects me we’re getting divorced” (lasted a week btw) and TODAY IDK WHAT IS PROBLEM IS IT STARTED WITH MY MOM THEY HAVE THEIR CONFLICTS BUT TODAY WHY TF AM I GETTING INVOLVED.

IM HOME FROM A LONG DAY OF SCHOOL, AND FOR ONCE I DECIDE TO EAT A MEAL WITH MY FAMILY BC IM HUNGRY AND I EVEN SAT AT RHE TABLE INSTEAD OF MY ROOM.

“I think im gonna move to texas! U guys stay here tho!”

AND I GUESS HES TRYNA MAKE US BEG FOR HIM TO STAY LIKE WE DID WHEN HE STARTED OVERSTAYING BACK HOME AND WE BEGGED FIR HIM TO COME BACK BUT COME ON A GIRL CAN ONLY BEG FOR SO LONG

and i just stayed silent. Because you’d think, a grown man would have rhe decency to not try to piss his daughter off right.

No he asks me what IIII think. GIRL IDFK. IF I SAY NO IM NOT SUPPORTING U IF I SAY YES I DONT LOVE YOU. LIKE HOW DOES ONE SURVIVE A MAN LIKE THIS. THIS IS EXHAUSTING AND I CONSTANTLY FEEL LIKE A BAD DAUGHTER.

Btw im south asian if that provides any depth because any form of distance kr separation between a couple is seen has like horrific and failure and whatnot and u become the talk of the town.

I just dont understand how someone has it in them to drain their family and children to this extent

And my mom got her degree recently snd everytime she chastised him a LITTLEE like asking him to clean up after himself kr pick my siblings up he says “oh u got ur masters now so ur bossing me around.”

IMMMM SOOOO SICKKK OFF THISSSS

I fell out with engineering after a bad experience in my middle school engineering class, but i read an old essay of mine about it and im starting to miss it and fall in love with it again. But im literally a rising senior. My schedule is full and my schools engineering one class like most regular classes is basically a study hall, and all summer programs are closed. I think... Any advice on what to do? How to pursue? Im not gonna make engineering my intended major while applying but i still want to engage with it somehow, i dont wanna wait till my 2nd year in college to only get involved thru a dual major. Advice pls.

So i wrote my essay in under an hour. Worst essay of my life. Saw someone on here withdraw because of AI concerns. So i was inspired and withdrew for my peace too. Even tho i didnt have that Im just sick of that pending feeling competitions give me 😐 like ive done MIT think, Genes in Space, HCGEC, and some other stuff and it genuinely drives me up a wall and makes me feel shitty even tho for all i know i couldve been one point off, or a whole 100 points off. So i quit!! I know it was probably stupid and you miss whatever shots you dont take but has anyone else just, decided to choose peace at this point.

Basically i was denied from a scholarship the foundation liked me enough to give me a whopping 2 mentors. And they’re like , amazing. One’s a ivy graduate in astrophysics and another’s a cool person that works on making sure science is used for good and not bad. Theyre both spectacular women. I have my first meeting with them like tuesday and i have no idea what to say what to do what to ask. I know im gonna ask for general advice about dual majoring since I have a new interest i lack relevant past experience in + advice for an interview I have coming up. But like. Yk. How do i act what do i say, how do i introduce myself…im lost.

I got rejected as a prep scholar so like what even r the chances of getting in for the college match. And theres only like 4-5 colleges from there I’d actually want to go to because a lot of the ones I have listed arent ib partnership with them. But like. My parents are in the negatives in the bank im genuinely fried these people cannot pay for my college yeo. And my (pending) job is like 150 a week but thats barely anything for college even if i saved every penny. Does anyone have any advice on whether questbridge is worth it esp if i got rejected once? And how do i actually convey my urgency and need and passion and whatnot…

This internship open specifically to kids in my district is literally my dream—like its on space biosciences and for my final for this other program i did i designed basically a mission for growing a damn garden on mars and i want to pursue like space medicine and potentially astrobiology but yeah i wanna study life in space long story short snd this program actually caught my heart and i wanna put my all into it so could someone who has fire luck with applications and essays review my essays when i do them—my deadlines may 11 11:59 est (ik so last minute but i just found it) pretty pls. It doesnt even look at gpa or transcript or sat its pure passion. Idk how selective it is i just know im in love. My weakest points always conveying WHY i want to participate in the program so if someone could give pointers there too..pls ❤️

I know a lot of people got rejected from ALLLL their programs at once, including me, (SOME R STILL OPEN SO EVERYONE GET TO DIGGING) so i was wondering if yall would be interested in coming together with me to put together this project for high schoolers—literally for high schoolers, their well-being and just restoring faith and compassion because over-competitive can sometimes cut compassio, especially for ourselves. Just send me a dm or commnt with ur best form of contact. Its still something i just came up with after seeing myself and everyone choke and its a hot mess but i pinky promise it’ll come together—with help of course. Theres no cost no fee and no rejection we’re all gonna PLAY and have FUN 🥰😍 and we can work out positions, jobs, activities, all that if we want.
