🤹‍♀️ Kateryna's Hobbies

I like learning languages and reading. I also like fashion. Also, my new friend inspired me to read about biology this year. She's an amazing woman, who works in a pharmacy, and loves poetry and Sci-fi. She's 15 years older than me, and she thinks she's too old to contribute to science because she failed to do so when she was my age. I want to prove her wrong by showing that if I, in my 24 years with no B.Sc and M.Sc, can do it, then 40 is not late for her to start and re-start a science career either. Anyway, my friend inspired me to get a book called "Nature's Palette. A colour reference system for the natural world" by Patrick Baty. It's hilarious because it describes how scientists back in the day didn't have a CSS Colors name system (like #F0F8FF for AliceBlue, I hope I got the term right) and instead used words like "canary yellow." They were suffering without the code to define what color they were discussing. Check it out; the book is fun!
