Blog # 17

Tell me about your passions/burning ambitions.

I'm incredibly passionate towards learning, though my scope may be slightly more narrow than that of Victor Frankenstein. I'm really interested in math, physics, chemistry, computers, natural science, music, and, rather oddly, American Colonial History. The subjects all fascinate me, and somehow relate to my life. I'm struck with wonder when I unravel a secret of the universe in class, or when I'm in idle thought about some of those things.

I also have a burning ambition for bettering myself, becoming more adept in more facets of life than I would have dreamt of exploring when I was a child. Part of this may be attributed to my ADD medicine, because it causes me to be much more proactive and involved in everything around me. However, I believe I've also grown into my own person much more in recent years, and my passion for bettering myself may simply be because I don't want to be anyone but me. (That was surprisingly awkward to word, but oh well lol)

I seem to have an ambition to be important in people's lives. I want to help people, and I want to be good friends with the people that I befriend. I don't want to be unreliable, untrustworthy, or forgettable. Those aren't the qualities that would describe who I want to be, so I take appropriate action to ensure that these qualities don't describe me (for the most part).
