Do not think what you CAN’T do. Thnk what you CAN do and never give up in astronomy if you are really interested in it…forget about how expensive is it…it’s your dream to be a astrnomer…and obviously astronomy is to work at night, most of te time and also you aren’t working alone you work with groups. you are not the only person who’s having all these expensive eqipment, sleeping trouble, and not focusing on job. think there are a lot of people who might be having all these peroblem you might not be alone. what about those astronomers who are working so hard for our planet( Earth and galaxy milkyway) think you are the one who can change this world. if there were no sciebtists like astronomers we would be learning so much about space that you are interseted in.

Good points Erika, thanks! Sometimes I get furious because I know I won’t have money enough to purchase what I would like to, but it won’t stop me being interested in astronomy. Sleepless nights are annoying but you can get used to it I have slept 5-6 hours every night for yaers due to my studies, work and hobbies I fell pretty good. It is a conscious choice.

The first and third reasons really bother me a lot. The first one is true especially that I’m a graduating student. Instead of worrying about my report paper which is due after the christmas break, I’m always preoccupied on my next observation. If the weather is bad (like now) I’d rather read books and blogs regarding Astronomy. My day is not complete without doing anything related to Astronomy, hahaha! The 3rd reason poses another problem because every time I observe planets, comets and nebula, I always crave to see them more clearly & large enough so that I can distinguish their features. Such desire means more complicated & expensive equipment. Nevertheless, I still love Astronomy and these two problems won’t stop me!
