Do you know about the Unabomber, aka Ted Kaczynski? He was a man that sent bombs in the mail all around the US, killing three people and injuring 23.

My Review of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation and Earth.
Let me start by saying that this series of books has been a huge inspiration for me, especially to start new things and to always look for more scifi adventures to immerse myself in. Reading the first three books will always be a great memory to have while attending my first years of university, the […]
Working like dogs….

A light in the darkness
This semester for me started out incredibly strong with a strong emphasis on time management and stronger study techniques. This whole situation was turned upside down by this virus for my last month of the Spring Semester, with everything turning into remote classes and different formatted exams. I am more fond of face to face […]

A piece of inspiration by Juan Cardoza
I read a book once that had a passage in it that encapsulates my thoughts on the stars above us. The paragraph was in a flashback chapter by the narrator and in it, she recanted what her mother used to say about the expansive nature of the universe. A glittering reef of stars, spread out […]
