On my way back from Stockholm. We spent 2 days with one of my best friends. When you live abroad the easiest way to survive is blocking emotions and ignoring you miss friends and family. But shields are destroyed when meeting them.

I tried journaling for about a week, using big account's favorite prompts. But all I wrote about was my love for my two pairs of socks and my need for a nap. I mean, what a waste of time and fancy notebooks.

Academic writing uses hedging to avoid overstating the claims. Researchers must be cautious when making statements. We are afraid of Reviewer #2! Hedging minimizes the chances of other academics opposing our claims and adheres to the accepted style of academic writing.

“The data from this study appears to support a connection between the position of the substituents in the ring and the power conversion energy.” But if you are sure about your statements, be bold and remove the hedges.

El veterinario es increíblemente caro en Suecia! Mas de 6000 coronas (mas de 30000 pesos uruguayos) por una muestra de sangre y un poco de suero!
