Look at your wrist, see the blueish veins? The blood flowing through them contains hemoglobin, a protein that has four iron atoms incorporated into its structure. Iron is only naturally produced in one place, it can only be forged in the core of dying stars.

Every time you look at your veins, remember that you are built from, and kept alive by, pieces of stardust.

Met up with a friend today and we discussed about life and what we want to do in the future. We talked about travelling and seeing the world and how to make money to even see more of the world. It was a good talk.

I’ve crossed some things off my to-do list for the mid-term break and I’m feeling very satisfied with myself today. I also bought Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. So far so good.
