Then: Secondary Maths or Science teacher.
Now: A doctor (though I have no idea what area to specialise in particular - not necessary to know now anywho).
Future: ????

I am quite flexible in terms of interests - the only thing I'm not really interested in particular is Engineering. Have recently had a growing interest in academia + teaching at a tertiary level from talking with academics/tutors, what they do and a growing passion in some of the things I study (unfortunately not maths or physics).


i thought it would be ~obvious~

What's your motivation behind being a police psychologist ?

Haha. Maybe I have yet to re-ignite my burning passion for maths in later years (assuming I get bored in the holidays, open up a maths textbook and learn random things that may be related to a unit I pick up) but physics....Definitely not going into it in later years.

Iirc, you did discover your FIERY passion for maths in the holidays of last year, right?

When I was really young (5 or 6) I wanted to be a palaeontologist...
Then I went through phases of wanting to be a doctor or a chemist but throughout high school I had no idea. Now I'd love to do something related to chemistry/medical science.

I always told people I didn't know but maybe I did all along haha.
