Saxon Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I recently finished an internship for a physics department a week ago. I spent a lot of effort on the improvement of my coding skills and was given the privilege of access to the output-data of SPHINX, the next generation of climate model. I got the opportunity to learn more about climatology and meteorology and to actually see how scientific establishments work. I'm not sure whether I will want to pursue that line of work, because the salary is small for the required level of qualification and competition for placements is intense, but I feel good that I worked with people who make important theoretical contributions and whose research might improve our future resilience to climate change; that has always been an ambition of mine. ...Now, the important bit, it was a paid internship and I do now have enough set aside to think about purchasing a fursuit, something I've wanted since I was 13. Shame I have no fursona though! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feelwell Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Congratulations Saxon! I'm glad it went so well. Be careful when buying a fursuit, should probably get some recommendations and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful when buying a fursuit, should probably get some recommendations and such. I was thinking about Mixed Candy or Mischief Makers. Jill costumes would be very desirable, since the heads are machine washable, but they are also incredibly expensive. There's still a good chance I'll be too timid to buy anything. When I make money I almost always put it into savings for the future...but you know, what good is it always saving for the future if you don't live when you're young?
