Me, Giving Up Everything And Working My Hardest To Get Into One Of The Best National Institutes, FARTHEST

Me, giving up everything and working my hardest to get into one of the best national institutes, FARTHEST from my residence.

The World: No no no, we can’t let you get away from your manipulative parents so easily. We are gonna declare specifically YOUR institute closed. Good luck with dealing with them for another semester.

Reflecting on a book about the Himalayas

"Will you fake-marry me, so I can continue studying math?"

Anybody’s noticed those discordant piano notes in Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Jealousy, Jealousy’...? I am like, genuinely impressed how they level up the crazy-with-jealousy, wild vibe of the song.

Everytime i write

f is homo  (short for homomorphism)

Or

f is bi (short for bijective)

f here being a function between two sets.

My heart does a little dance.

I am like, homie me too.
