Being a novice is a gift because it is an opportunity to learn something new. Those who view it as a curse are missing the point
National Mole Day 10/23/20
physics and mathematics are more fundamental sciences (mathematics more fundamental than physics if you wish to know the order), chemistry applies to all matter, that is, the stuff that makes up plants and animals, planets and stars, rocks and soil
Life-Long Learning 10/22/20
my dumbbells will be moving in with me. I don’t have a goal of becoming a bodybuilder, but I will exercise at least enough to begin moving in the direction of getting into shape. It’s something small, but better than I’m doing now.
