I just loved being outside.

I spent a huge amount of my free time catching insects and trying to figure out what they were :P

That's a very good question...for me, I would have to say History sparked my interest? I am way more passionate about history versus science but history talks a lot about scientists/philosophers you know?

Homer, Aristotle, Newton, Einstein, etc... all those guys and more were men of science and understanding on why and how something works...

Science is interesting but I would have to say History has a lot to do with why I have any interest at all in Science.

+I'm horrible with mathematics. :rofl:
