Animal Activist

I want to be an animal rights activist. And no, not the protesting-with-placards and getting-jailed kind (although I totally adore those people), but more of opening-charity-hospital and rescuing-strays kind.

I hope one day i have a big house and enough money, so that not only can i open up a good, state-of-the-art animal hospital, but also so that i can pick up strays and abandoned animals and the old ones in the shelters that have no home, and give them a home.

I really, really, really hope this comes true. And i HOPE i can make a difference.

Dad.

I had my psychology practical exam today. My first. And my college is the most unhelpful, scary place ever.
So anyhoo, i didnt get my practical files to college because i had no idea! Apparenlt you get all 7 files and just keep them on the table...so that you dont cheat or something. Like HOW exactly am i supposed to cheat from a file during an exam???


So i got all scared and called up mom and started crying and told her to send the files somehow (really, a child's tantrums, i tell you!) and then in 10 mins (my college is really far from home) dad "flew" on his bike and came and gave me the files.


And saved my life.
Yes, I did get a bit of a scolding from mom ( no fault of mine. scold the damn college) but... They'll do anything for me. Touchwood.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO


Thats dad, mum, my sister and baby me. And my paternal grandfather (dadu) in the photo. He saw me for the first and last time when I was 3 months old. But I don't remember it... :(

A Nobel Prize winner replied to my mail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A few days back I wrote to doctor Eric Kandel (a super awesome scientist whose done studies on Aplysia to understand learning and memory) and the very next day, HE WROTE BACK TO MEEEEE!!!

I never ever ever expected him to write back. In India and maybe in some other countries, some scientists are such snobs that they have better things to do than write back to silly kids.

But this guy wrote back.
And that's all that matters.
YIPPPEEEEE!!!




P.S- He wears a bow tie to work. He's totally awesome.
