Hahahaha XD one of those "me" threads. Warning!!! XD
Anyway I started off college working on a BA in physics and a minor in studio art, then I transferred to another school to work on a BS in chemistry. I'm thinking about adding a minor in math if I can stay an extra semester or something. I think I'll go into astronomy if I can, if not, I think I'm going into physical chemistry. I currently do some research with biocatalytic nanomaterials which is kind of a mix of biochemistry (in the sense that it's chemistry with biological materials) and physical chemistry (synthesizing nanomaterials). One of the other professors is trying to get me to do research with her too. It involves a computer program and structures of proteins...sounds fun but it's a bit more than I can handle right now. It will be a great summer opportunity though xD And it's something to distract the grad schools with in case I do end up going into physical chemistry...my previous two research experiences only involved astronomy (distribution of galaxies and mapping an asteroid) xD There are so many interesting things to study in astronomy that I haven't really decided on a specific area of research yet.
As for non-research work, I've actually found stuff to do in art XDDDDD More as a hobby/favor, though. In photography, it's mostly going to concerts and taking pictures or video of the performers for publicity. Somehow after doing that, I've been talked about going back into drawing/painting/nature photography again and I also get violin lessons with Saria. It's pretty enjoyable as a hobby but I could always practice more.
