 The drafting process...

I was feel in love with astronomy as a teenager after a trip to a remote ghost town in central Australia where they’d never heard of light pollution. Late one night in an empty field I saw the Milky Way for the first time, and in the silence of the night I found myself wondering at how exactly all those stars worked and where they all came from.

Bleh, too girly.

I have wanted to be a theoretical astrophysicist ever since I first realised the power those two words have over mere mortals.

Too maniacal.

I dislike talking about myself and everything I have written within this document is complete bullshit.

Accurate, but you'll never get a job like that.

I’m just starting out on a career in astrophysics, so I haven’t developed a broad set of research interests yet. I have worked on star formation, looking at the problems of gravitational collapse and on molecular clouds, simulating the emission of shocked hydroxyl molecules in clouds that are interacting with supernova remnants.

Eh, it'll do until the boss tells you to write it more formally.

Hola from Montevideo...

About to jump on another flight (oh dear god can we stop soon please?), but I thought I'd see if this wifi really was free and post quickly to give you all my love.
