Big Hair and a Book

 This post is an essay that I wrote for my junior year of high school/freshman year of college English class. It’s a personal literacy essay where I discuss my experience with books. I hope you like it.  Throughout my entire life, including now, people always recognize me by my hair. Curly, brown,  and perpetually frizzy hair. My trademark. Although hair is important to who I am, I think books will  forever be the biggest part of me.            According to my mother, I started reading when I was 3, I can’t corroborate that since I don’t  remember being 3. In fact, I don’t remember much of my childhood. But I remember the books I read.  There were 3 extremely important books that have shaped my entire life, or at least my life until now,  but I can almost guarantee that they will always be important to me. These books represent different  types of reading, or different reasons you might read.   The first type is reading for knowledge, represented by the Egyptology book. As a child I wa

I DID AN INTERNSHIP AT FRED HUTCH!!!!!!!!

 Ok, I have a word limit for this so I'll just give you guys a bit of background info on what this is then I'll get into the post because this post is actually an assignment for the internship.  1.  This  is Fred Hutch  2.  This  is the internship I did  So I  have a few favorite things from this internship, ranging from the scenery to the labs. (Mostly the labs) But the thing I loved the most, were the tours. Seeing the labs and meeting people who work there and what they do is fantastic.  This is from the first tour, a picture of the view from the sky bridge. Yes, a skybridge!  Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of labs when we did tours, but I did get pictures from the labs that we did.  This is from a PCR lab. PCR stands for polymerase chain reaction. It essentially makes a bunch of copies for a specific gene. Copies are made by putting DNA into a thermocycler. Changes in temperature can change the bonds of the DNA, for example, heat breaks the hydrogen bonds, col

New Years Resolution Inspo

Hello! Happy New Year (if you celebrate)!  Today I'll be sharing some New Years' resolution ideas. Maybe you're out of ideas, think you're doing alright (good for you!), or perhaps you're like me and did not think about resolutions at all and now people are asking you about them and you need to come up with something.  1. Doing more of what you love!  This one's pretty obvious, but I think that you can never spend too much time doing the things you love. Everyone needs things that make them happy, whether it's baking, writing, or dancing.  2. Moving more often  When I say "moving" I mean exercising, but not to change how you look. You should work out for health, better joints, and to be strong in my opinion.  3. Reading more  This has been one of my eternal goals since I knew what goals were. But it's even more important now since we live in such a tech-savvy world. We need to disconnect from the wires, and what better way to do that than to st
