I am starting this to get into a science club i really think I'll dig.
Let's see here, yes the Hubble telescope's demise is particularly disturbing! It brought us so many awesome pictures and I’m just sure there would never be anything quite like it. And perhaps I am just sentimental, but we can’t just leave it out there to become space debris!
About my own scientific interests,
Anything and everything.
I yearn to decide on Medical School, psychology or Education becoming a science teacher.
Though I will probably always be much too broke to ever go to collage.
I think we all had that one rad science teacher that danced about showing us how cells moved,
and if not I will right this wrong! Perhaps.
I really dig all things biological with a particular fondness towards anatomy and illnesses.
I study mainly by myself and by coaxing my boyfriend who works at the University bookstore to buy me books.
I really love learning statistics of mental disorders, buying old psychology books from the 70's and down and comparing.
Ditto with medical books.
I also have a minute fascination with space. Seriously the coolest thing ever.
Books i own that i love to flip through and read for ages:
Psychology and life by Zimbardo and Ruch
Psychology an Introduction (2nd Edition) by Mussen, Rosenzweig, Aronson, Elkind, Feshbach, Geiwitz, Glickman, Murdock, Wertheimer, and Harvey
Abnormal Psychology and Modern Life (5th Edition) by Coleman
Biology Coloring Workbook by I. Edwards Alcamo
Eastman's Expectant Motherhood (note worthy as I have no children just interested in the process)
A guide to Childbirth by The Childbirth Education Association
Encyclopedia of Common Diseases by J.T. Rodale
Principles of anatomy and Physiology (7th Edition) by Tortara and Grabowski
Mankind's search for god (apparently without author)
and my beloved MASSIVE anatomy book which i cant seem to find online to show you.
But its 17 inches wide and 24 inches high. ITS GLORIOUS!
Oh, I’ve gone about this all wrong.
My name is Samantha de Nijs. I'm 19 years old and live in Cincinnati Ohio.
In grade schools I was always the one who never got her assignments back in science class because the teacher wanted to keep them as examples for the next years. Hand in the air and shy, I was always easily coaxed into doing everyone's science homework with the hopes of something to do after school.
I am quite bookish and my hobbies include books, booze and music. That is basically it.
My friends are into Viking mythology and love to rile me up by talking about how Odin created the world just to hear me bitch for an hour about plate tectonics and things.
When I was little my mother was always irked by me stamping about the woods with pads of paper trying to discover new species.
And also whenever she would find things in the freezer like flies and wasps frozen in things like water, liquid soap, milk, water with food coloring in it, soda and other things. The big one was my cat that i put in to see if she would slow down as her muscles froze, I was very young and thankfully she was found very shortly after.
A huge creationist museum opened recently as I'm sure you know, pretty close to Cincinnati so the whole town is in uproars. You can barely go anywhere without hearing SOMEONE talking about it. As far as I'm concerned it isn't an issue, go if you want to experience it or make fun of it. But it’s no big deal until public schools have to go there for field trips. I don’t like to believe in anything that isn’t sure enough of its self to let you find a way out. I do think that it is hurting the image of Cincinnati. We've been trying to hard to shake the conservative image people have of the town and this opens up and scares away robotic engineers, non-Aryan businesses and gay and lesbian patrons.
I laughed when the commercials came out for the cervical cancer awareness came out. TELL SOMEBODY! ITS CAUSED BY A VIRUS! And then a couple months later the vaccine was introduced. AH marketing by terror!
I loved the story in India from a couple days ago about the fifteen year old son of a doctor who performed a C-section to get into the records books. And the father proudly says "he's assisted in many surgeries of mine. this was his solo performance and everything went perfectly."
These are not titty shots but showing you the shirt I am infamous for.


The pictures are blurry but you can obtain your own at THIS site, which is the funniest thing on the internet of ALL TIME
Okay, that one was just nerdy BUT STILL.
I hope I haven’t overdone this,
In any case I have atrocious penmanship which should qualify me as far as I’m concerned.
