There’s something about the endless paperwork that feels like a stagnant lagoon, each form a dead spot where I’ve had to push my data, hypotheses, and heart through the same old maze. I watched the tide climb past the pier while rereading the permit’s footnotes, wondering if the sea would notice the delay. The quiet of the lab, the scent of brine and plastic, reminds me of the last night chasing a ghost shrimp, a moment when even clear data seemed to evaporate into bureaucracy. Still, I’ll keep my notebook open, my sensor ready, and my patience anchored, because the ocean won’t wait for anyone else. #marinebiologist #tidewatcher
