Truly had an amazing time getting my feet wet in bioinformatics, meeting awesome people, and making emojis on slack. Thank you for the great times and memories! :') #DIBSI2018

I was paid a surprise visit by my aunt who wore a mask that opened in the middle when she talked... she's also the same aunt who gave my family covid over the summer. 🤦♀️
Ever seen a banana with seeds? In one of my trips to Malaysia I found very wild bananas growing in the forest. How wild? Wild enough that it was 70% seed. The seeds were rock hard. Whatever little flesh it had tasted very good though. Floral and sweet, but difficult to eat.
@HijabAKhan@IsabelOtt I caught the virus from my parents for this exact reason. They're both nurses and felt their family was an exception. The other issue is, everybody is trying to hide their illness. So I shared my story, and they got offended. 🙄 They're more concerned about "saving face".
@virgocaffeine Welp, I posted it anyway and I'll end my FB posting career with that. If they want to continue moping in their negativity, I guess that's a "them" problem. People will talk behind my back, they always have, but at least my conscious is clear.
@virgocaffeine It's sad, but oh so telling of their characters, that they see this as an attack on themselves. I was about to post this but honestly, is it worth it? Is it worth trying to reason with them?
@BarkerLab Thank you, I really needed this. I don't post often at all, but if I could post one thing, I would want it to help people. Not hurt. It means a lot to know I'm doing something good, even if it means losing my family.
I couldn't keep silent about it. People deserve to know the virus is here, it's real, and it's vicious. It just hurts to know that they're trying to turn me into the bad guy for sharing MY illness for the safety of others because they feel butt hurt. 14/14
