Exploring "Why Scientists do Science?" Article

Clientmoji

If I were to write a "scientific me" essay what would I write about? Read more to find out!

This article was very informative and it opened my eyes to how many scientists love what they do. My freshman year of college, I decided to major in biology to eventually become a physical therpist. Prior to that, when I was in highschool my favorite class to go to was chemistry and biology. I loved both of my teachers that taught both classes and knew that I would be interested to study further in college. I wanted to go the scientific route for a physcial therapist because I have had a fair share of injuries as a soccer player. I tore my ACL, meniscus, and MCL during high school and basically lived at my physical therapy office for three years. I just loved learning new things while in physical therpay and it made me fall in love with the occupation. Unfortunately, I could not complete that major due to life just changing, my mind changed and now I cannot wait to be an elementary school teacher. 

That will be all for today!

See ya next time!

take it easy
