Introducing.... SPACEPIRATE! Student, Researcher, Nerd, Travel Enthusiast.

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Obviously, that is not my real name. That is something I've been using since I read the novel "The Martian." My name is Sri Harsha Pavuluri and I lived most of my life in the south of India. I am 22 years old and I finished my undergrad 3 months ago. I majored in Electronics and Communication Engineering, and I am going to be attending an Erasmus Mundus program (for all you who don't know this, it is a study program by the European Union where you study each semester at a different university in Europe) to do my masters in Space Technology.

This is me:

I did dedicate most of my undergrad time in Space Research and that is what I intend to do for the rest of my life.

I love Sci-Fi and I'm a huge fan of Doctor Who.
)

I am a type 1 diabetic (diagnosed 4 months ago). A nasty disorder that nobody knows the reason behind or the cure to it. To live, I have to test my Blood glucose several times a day and inject insulin manually to keep it under control. This means 3-4 pricks on fingers per day to test and about 4-5 injections to keep me alive. If I take too less insulin, my blood glucose rises and causes organ damage in long term. If I take too much insulin, I become hypoglycemic (low blood glucose) and might end up in ER or worse, in a coma if not corrected. Sounds adventurous, doesn't it?

My study starts in Germany, then goes on to other countries like Sweden, Finland, and the likes. The building that I am going to stay in during my study period at Germany was apparently an artillery base for Nazi Germany during World War II, renovated to become a student residence. The university itself was decimated during WWII and was rebuilt later. Charming. So I plan to share my travel experience in these beautiful European countries on steemit. I would also be posting about cryptocurrencies, memes, and whatever comes to my mind.

Cheers!

You are a GOOD man sir Sri - welcome to tha Steemit! I am sorry to hear about the diabetes - my Mom was recently diagnosed as 'pre-diabetic' and one of my best friends has had it since she was very young. I know how difficult it can be to manage. I hope a cure is found soon. I hope you enjoy your time here - good people, a lot of talent and educated to learn from. STEEM On man

Thanks, @lanceman. I'm sorry to hear about your mom and your friend. Pre-diabetes only leads to Type 2 diabetes only if controlled improperly. So that's good news for you mom. With the research that is going around... a cure is on the horizon.

I'm sure I'll love it here! :)

Welcome to steem it, I have found that the first few weeks here are the most overwhelming and it can be rather daunting doing it all on your own, during my searches about the wild oceans of steem I found a little project called MSP, (MinnowSupport Project), I ended up joining this fantastic community and they have helped me grow to where I am today. I just wish someone had mentioned them on my first post.

We are a very supporting network of diverse individuals and I am sure you will find someone to befriend and grow alongside.

We run our own chat service on discord here, https://discord.gg/yWn29K3

Enjoy the vote and I hope to see you soon,

Take care @sammosk
