Could I be a scientist
Something I struggle with in life is finding my passion. There are things I like but I feel like most people have a general idea for what they like. All through my school years I've had different experiences with each subjects and for the most part, I like them. Science is one I'm usually interested in because I'm a naturally curious person and science allows you to peak your curiosity. Being in the forest with nothing but scientists was a great experience. Individually we each got to conduct our own experiment about bromeliads, stream studies, and insects, with people who do this for a living. Me and my peers actually got to search the forest for our own bromeliads to do some investigations based on a question we proposed, from there we collected samples to collect data under the microscope. Just the whole process to going out and learning new things and seeing all different types of animals, plants, and bugs was something I never thought I would see myself doing. But I'm glad I was given the opportunity to do so, because the whole time I felt like a real scientist whose data will actually go down in their system, which is incredible.

Finding our passion takes time. Experiences help us to do that. Each time we experience something new, it's an opportunity to turn inward and see how we feel inside. Your internal navigation system is designed to help you find your lane. So happy this trip helped.
