Bros I’m afraid. I might have to chose between my dream of flying in space, and my relationship with my girlfriend. We are both going to different states to pursue our post-grad degrees (I’m gonna go to medschool, she’s getting a phd). I don’t know if our relationship will actually succeed if we’re so far apart because we’ve been together for so long that we’re always close and within a few minutes away.
On the other hand, my dream is to pass the Karman line. I don’t care if it’s on a Blue Origin hop, I just want to go to space. Part of me wants to pursue going to space, but it also seems like such a lonely path. Physicians have one of the highest rates of suicide in all professions.
It feels like an impossible choice and I wish I could see into the future.
