You gotta love science. Right now I hate it, because I've been looking at (almost) nothing else for the last few days straight. Geology is kinda dull, but kinda not. It's really hard to explain. Some parts are amusing, others, which are usually relating to the chemical structure of rocks, aren't.
But, seriously, what's not cool about volcanoes? They explode! They melt people! Hollywood abuses their existence! Kids everywhere use them for their dumb science projects! Volcanoes are awesome. Science is full of fun stuff like that.
Hopefully these coming exams won't make me hate science. Because I find people who hate science stupid. It's a really fascinating subject, and it has so many different areas that it's hard to not find one that you like. Also, it isn't subjective (like stupid English literature). Everything is discussed, and evidence is used to determine if you're correct. Perfectly logical.
It is also more creative than people give it credit for. Often you find great scientists have to invent 'new' concepts in order to figure out how things work or in order to invent new things. But, clearly modern art is more creative... Ha. No it isn't. Painting a canvas purely black should lead to bankruptcy.
Kids, learn science. For real. It's important. Understanding how the world works is the first step away from ignorance. One day, when you know the properties of quartz, you'll look back on this blog entry and say 'Man, Aleatz was right. This really did help me in life'.
