Getting Distracted

Hello Humans! Lately, I've been getting distracted. Distracted from my main goal of becoming a successful scientist that changes the world. I've been letting people, things, ideas, and thoughts get into my head that lead me off the path of science. I think it's mainly because I see everyone else happy when they're with others, and then I try but am not as happy as when I'm doing good in my Science classes. Then I get down on myself and think I'm not smart enough. So, I'm here to reform my ways and try again.

A little while ago, I wrote a post on the challenges of having a smart brain. One of them, is becoming bored in lecture. Everything makes sense almost immediately to my big brain, but that's definitely not the same to everyone else. Because of this, I've stopped going to lectures, because my brain is more engaged when I read the book quickly and efficiently on my own. I am starting to get why Albert Einstein dropped out of High School. It's because he could learn the material faster and better on this own than in a classroom setting. These things also mean getting frustrated with others. It's hard having a brain as big as mine, where it makes sense in your brain, exactly how the professor explained it, exactly how the book put it, or by some weird connection you made in your brain to a Beatles song. But when others need your help and you try to explain it, and they can't get it no matter how you explain it, you get frustrated and mad. So then you start to isolate yourself, burying yourself into your work or studies. It makes sense why Scientists are one of the largest groups of people who aren't married. They can't find someone who they can explain everything to without getting frustrated by stupid questions.

So, I'm done trying to sit still and look pretty. It's time for me to get back to the things that will help me rule the world. So back to my calculus and organic chemistry books it is.

"Can dress up to get love, but guess what? I'm never going to be that girl who's living in a Barbie world. Could wake up and make up, and play dumb, pretending that I need a boy who's going to treat me like a toy. And all the other girls want wear expensive things, like diamond rings. But I don't want to be the puppet that you're playing on a string. This Queen don't need a King. Oh I don't know what you've been told, but this Girl right here is going to rule the world. And that is what I'm going to be, because I want to be. I don't want to sit still, look pretty. You get off of your nine to five dreaming of pinky fancies and trophy wives, and no, I'm never going to be, because I don't want to be. I don't want to sit still, look pretty. Mr Right could be nice for one night, but then he want to take control. And I would rather fly solo. Snow White she did right in her life, had seven men to do the chores, because that's not what a lady's for. The only thing a boy's going to give a girl for free, is captivity. And I might want some vanilla, but I'm not that sugar sweet. Call me HBIC. Well, I don't know what you've been told, but this Girl's going to rule the world. And that is what I'm going to be, because I want to be. I don't want to sit still, look pretty. You get off your nine to five dreaming of pinky fancies and trophy wives. No, I'm never going to be, because I don't want to be. I don't want to sit still, look pretty. Sure I'm a pretty girl, up in a pretty world. But they say pretty hurts, and I don't want to sit still. Sure I'm a pretty girl, up in a pretty world. But no I won't sit still, look pretty. Oh I don't know what you've been told, but this Girl right here is going to rule the world. And that is what I'm going to be, because I want to be. No I don't want to sit still, look pretty. You get off of your nine to five dreaming of pinky fancies and trophy wives. No, I'm never going to be, because I don't want to be. I don't want to sit still, look pretty."

No more people as distractions for me. Stay wild, flower child.
