About

I'm a kid who is interested in too many things. I post about my art when I make it, my lab work when it’s interesting, and atheism and gender issues when they come up.

I'm doing my undergrad degree in evolutionary biology at McGill University, Montreal, and I hope to be a renegade palaeontologist/illustrator extraordinaire someday.

Favourite:
- Games: Bastion, Mass Effect 2, Minecraft, Portal, Psychonauts, TF2
- Mode of transport: bicycle or train
- Sushi ingredient: soft-shell crab
- Novel: Fifth Business - Robertson Davies
- Star Trek TNG episodes: Chain of Command pt II, Darmok

Reasons I suck at violin

  • Why is it tuned in fifths
  • Why can’t I just play power chords
  • Why doesn’t it have frets
  • Why do I have to memorize where the notes are
  • Why do I have to look down the neck rather than just at it
  • Why can’t I keep the bow from bouncing on the strings
  • Why is the bow so long
  • Why does it sound like a dying cat

Notes:
