Real quick, won't waste a lot of your time... I joined this forum because I wanted to pursue Math education and eventually go back to school for Mechanical engineering. I know that will involve a lot of physics, but before I joined here I knew very little of physics and what it was all about... Now I am FASCINATED by it. Just from lurking here and reading other peoples questions and answers, I want to learn everything I can about physics, I am so intrigued to know how EVERYTHING works and is related to each other.

I don't want to make a career in math, I enjoy doing it and know that I will use it daily in engineering, but want to pursue the more hands on side of engineering.
 
Welcome to PF Swegner99! I hope you enjoy it here, and good luck with your studies. By the way, what's your favourite fish?

To eat: None, don't like seafood at all

Aquarium life: Anything that lives on a reef, I love the colorful fish and the whole ecosystem of the reef.
 
Evo, do we have a colourful fish for our new member??
 
Well, this might not be as colourful as expected, but it's serving the purpose! :biggrin:



There you go, you are now properly initiated. Welcome to the forum. :smile:
