I'll be the first to admit that science-y stuff can be dry.
Never!

Many fields are. It never ceases to amaze me how little we humans really know about ourselves and the world(s) around us.Neuroscience is a field that is never ending I suspect
Science is a global community in a way that other things I've done in my life are not. I'm sure that the OP will have many opportunities to meet interesting people. A bit like cycling!Slightly off original topic now though.
I've not picked up a book(to read) in my adult life In fact the last time I read a book cover to cover would have been pre-1984 ie my school years!You read my mind! I have never picked up a cycling book in my life...
You know you're in trouble when even your bathroom has bookshelves... But then again, a girl's gotta have some reading material while she's, well, doing what a girl's gotta do.
I'm kind of curious as to why you're asking.
You're still at Uni, so I'm guessing pretty young still - bad luck for being caught up there during Covid - especially if you're the sociable type.
That must be hard.
I think before embarking on any long term relationship its a very good idea to get to know yourself first.
Of course we change over time, our preferences and tastes..
But underlying characteristics
I can imagine lots of alternative lives, but I seriously cannot imagine a life without books.I've not picked up a book(to read) in my adult life In fact the last time I read a book cover to cover would have been pre-1984 ie my school years!
My daughter is a bookworm,always has been.She'd read all the Harry Potter books,Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit before she went to high school,that's as well as the usual kids stuff,Famous Five etc,etc..She reads every day
So far I have not been putting a lot of time into it but we will discuss it as we go and hopefully head off any big showdowns. Ideally I would like to get out on the bikes as a family as much as possible. At the moment the main concern is for my safety when I am out, I stop and send a text when in longer cycles just to confirm all is okWhat does your significant other think of your cycling hobby, I know some of you on here spend a vast amount of time on your bikes whilst some much less or just for commuting, so would be interesting to see different people's stories. Do they support it? Do they think it's excessive and that you spend too much time on the bike? Or do they share your hobby?
I think you can tell a lot about a person on examining the books they have in the toilet.Books are acceptable in any room in my world.
Hahaha uni work is not going great I must admit! It's hard studying whilst I am at home. Went cycling yesterday and doing the 117km on Saturday apparently? I am a master procrastinator I must admit.

Currently mine are "Invasion" - the various invasions of (and counter measures to) Britain. An encyclopedia of knots. Two maps of North Wales and Western Scotland (you can but dream huh?)
Anyone guess what my degree is in?
Fahrenheit 451?I can imagine lots of alternative lives, but I seriously cannot imagine a life without books.
I may need to write a book about a life without books - or has that already been done?
