0sm0sis is currently a sophomore competing for Mason High School. He does the least random selection of events ever. Prior to division C, he used to compete for Mason Middle School. Initially participating in physics and chemistry events, he has drifted to exclusively physics events.

People He Shares a Birthday With

-Michael Bloomberg

-YouTube (to the year!)

People who died on his Birthday

-Those valentine people or whatever <3

History

Pre-scioly years

As a child, 0sm0sis's endeavors in science were always pretty half-baked. He can remember regularly going to science-related discovery museums in the area like the Center of Science and Industry in Columbus and the Boonshoft Museum but being continually distracted by brain-rotting YouTube videos and mobile games. Weirdly enough, a mobile sparked his first interest in physics after he purchased "Angry Birds: Furious Forces" at a Scholastic Book Fair. Ever since then, he's been on the old (cliche) journey to understand the physical world around him.

2018-19 (8th grade, Division B)

In 0sm0sis's first year of Science Olympiad, he did his best to copy the events of his friend with the exception of Density Lab (until about two months in). Some poor practice test performances weathered his enthusiasm, but a fortuitous mock performance revived his interest in SciOly. Though 0sm0sis was unable to attend the Centerville Invitational (and hasn't to this day) he was able to partner up with his pal nobodynobody for the New Albany Invite and rest of the season and score big.

-I had almost "accidentally" joined this club. You see, I only joined because I walked by a flyer during open house... yeah I am eternally grateful for that moment. Anyway, I decided to try out for physics and chemistry. I signed up and procrastinated studying until the day before xD. I just went through the study guide for 3 hours and bam it was testing day. I somehow made it and I was very happy. I ended up choosing Potions and Poisons, Hovercraft, Thermodynamics, and Optics. Optics is still one of my favorite events.
-Except I was really bad at it lol. During the meetings, I didn't know what I was doing or understand what I was being taught so I played pokemon on my computer. I remember trying to catch a zapdos for the entire meeting and I still didn't get it (sad). When it came time for the mock invitational (to determine rosters for Centerville), I had 3 questions. "Wait it's today?" "Whats a binder lol," and "wait theres a list of organisms for potions???" Needless to say, I did horrible except in THERMODYNAMICS. I actually won (by a large margin) through common sense and dimensional analysis. Weird times. I cannot stress how bad I was. I made the Centerville rosters and I think my partners were doomed at that point? I actually started engaging with people and I started trying. My partners were really supportive <3. Placed in potions poggers!.
