I Think I Might Like This

I have always been worried that I would come to college and find out that I'm really not meant for science or math. Instead I'm supposed to do something passionate like english, politics or theatre. My fears were unfounded, I'm not going to do any of those silly things.
Since any interest in english was crushed junior year of high school and I never really wanted to go into politics, I'll stick to theatre.
I admit, I enjoy it. Watching it is as good as reading a book. The art of freely displaying emotions is energizing. Taking a story (and I love stories) and giving it life is a wonderful concept. That being said, I hate theatre. Manipulating my emotions to fit whatever I'm supposed to be doing and fine-tuning them to fit the character more fully is draining, and it usually leaves my emotions rattled. In addition, I cannot help but be distrusting of people who spend their lives manipulation their appearance to achieve their goals. It doesn't help that I'm an introvert who loses energy by social interaction. It is all in all too much for me, and while I may enjoy it every once in a while, I cannot bear to be involved with it as much as I am. So I've decided that my audition this Friday will be my last for awhile. Honestly, I'm hoping I don't get into to the one I auditioned for today or the one coming up Friday. I'm excited that our theatre class play performs soon, and I'm anxious to be done with it. Sad as it may be, I'm excited to leave the HFAC for what I hope to be a very long time.
I am in no way lost for a major. My decision to go into chemistry was much smarter than I gave credit for. I am interested to see how I enjoy the higher level math class, although I think that the super-complex and not-so-applicable mathematics might not interest me as much as they used to. Chemistry, I admit, is difficult. At times I don't understand the concepts and sometimes I just can't seem to get the math right. But I love the way it has changed my thought process. I'm now able to see things happening in real life at the molecular level. I can understand why things happen the way they do, and what is actually going on. I'm excited to delve further into the specifics of how our universe functions.
I must admit I had been worried forever about going into science at all. Truth is, I don't fit the pattern of a science mastermind. I never won anything at any science fair. I did comparatively poorly in my science classes. I thought the science kits were interesting but I had no patience for the actual experiments and only liked the shiny things. I have a hard time visualizing things in space, and figuring out how a scenario will turn out. But all the same, I love it. And I plan on continuing.
