Reflections

I like science. I like writing. I like talking about things - with various levels of seriousness - and I don't like thinking about how I'm going to apply all these things I talk about later in life. I knew all that even before I started doing this blog. I just got more of a chance to talk about it, and process some things about what I like about each.

• While I am interested in science and engineering, I'm still in the process of narrowing down exactly what I want to do in those fields.Which is what school is for, really - take classes, see what fits you. Not that the work you do in class necessarily is like the work you'll have to do on the job; I don't particularly like math, for example, but I am good at it, and in the right environment it might make an okay job.
• I love writing, and reading, and stories in general, but I don't even know where I'd start with a career that has something to do with that. I mean, it wouldn't even have to be directly related to that, not quite - my post on spoilers was in part musing on a career in, say, movie promotion. 
• Then again, I've heard it said that "your dream career might not exist yet". Maybe one day they'll be a need in society for something that applies/involves science, in a fun problem-solving way I wouldn't mind doing all day, with stories and writing involved too. Maybe it even exists already - I just haven't found it yet. Maybe it's just a matter of whose project you're working for. Or maybe there isn't, and I'll just find something close enough.
