↳ apush is killing me
08.12.2017; my arabic exam is really close, so i must start working harder now. i don’t think i’ll do great because i’m way behind my classmates (i joined the class two months later than them), but i feel like i’m learning so much, i feel way more confident with the language now, and it makes me so happy ♡
also, i started a new book under my father’s recommendation: ‘the seven minutes’ by irving wallace.
“Gravitational ejection is about 100 times more likely than a random merger, meaning our star and the remaining bound planets will probably be ejected into the abyss of now-empty space after around 10^19 years. But even at that, with Earth orbiting our stellar remnant and with nothing else around, things won’t last forever. Every orbit — even gravitational orbits in General Relativity — will very, very slowly decay over time. It might take an exceptionally long time, some 10^150 years, but eventually, the Earth (and all the planets, after enough time) will have their orbits decay, and will spiral into the central mass of our Solar System.”
Worried about the environment of Earth today? Here’s a sobering fact: we already know how it’s all going to end. Not just when the next ice age will come or the next supervolcano will blow, but on cosmic scales stretching billions of years into the future and beyond. From the death of life on Earth to the end of the Sun, we can predict some major catastrophes our Solar System will face. But even after the Sun has died, the Earth and what’s left of our parent star will likely stick around for more. The matter expelled by our Sun will ignite new stars, which will die as well. White dwarfs will cool off into black dwarfs, and the Universe will go dark. And yet, thanks to gravitational effects, more interactions, on long enough timescales, will still remain.
Come get the long-term story of the future of our Solar System and see how it all will, in the ultra-distant future, come to an end.

09.04.17 editing my manuscript that I hope to get published at some point; it’s a review of novel therapies for myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
The first day of December was great! I submitted half of my college applications and went to Muji where they would give you this free canvas bag with every purchase to honor their 10th anniversary!
listening to: Martin Garrix + Troye Sivan - There For You

Hey guys! This have been REALLY hectic, as I’ve been submitting forms for college and I’ve also been swamped with studying for finals and AP tests D: It’s definitely a bit stressful but I’m looking forward to when all of this is over! :)
