I have started to think about a few new things recently and today, for some unbeknownced(*is this a word?) reason, they have been on my mind all day. I have always thought that I would go into a field of math-related science, but recently I have started to think about the field of social sciences. EVERYTHING in this field fascinates me! Psychology, Anthropology, and Poli Sci are all things that I am interested in.
I have always had a knack for math and the sciences, so I have always thought and been, not told but strongly encouraged, by my Dad that this is a field I should go into. I am keeping every option open and haven't even told my dad that I am thinking of this one. I have signed up to take all the AP/H science courses that will help me if I decide to become a bio-chemist or something else along those lines, but I don't think that that's what I want to do. I have to try hard in those classes, but it doesn't force me to do my best and ask all the questions, because they come easily to me. Maybe this is why I should do one of these sciences, but it also seems like it would be a boring life. I want to be forced to think "outside the box" and to question everything that society has told me.
I know I shouldn't really be worrying about this yet, but I am and that hasn't changed no matter how much I try to put it out of my mind.
