Finding My Path: The Intersection of Science and Passion

[timeuntotime]

I have so many interests, and know a great deal about a few. I find so many areas of science fascinating and when I put all the interests together, I come to the conclusion of physics. I have a high aptitude for English rather than math and I'm always told I should become a writer. I adore reading, but don't have that much interest in writing. Sorry, this isn't even really a question, I'm just..searching.

Write down a list of 6 interesting things then throw a dice?

So, ends your search?

Never, the search is the conclusion.

Choose Physics, at least until you learn that you want something else. If you choose Physics, you must learn mathematics through at least three semesters of Calculus (along the way) and preferably one course on linear algebra; and you WILL do much writing in regard to Physics, as well as in other sciences or technologies. Understand, with any choice of major field, you do have elective options for courses other than just mathematics or physics, including outside of S.T.E.M.

Duly noted, thank you.

Never, the search is the conclusion.

In a broad, vague sense that can be true but on a practical level if you don't make a decision to follow a coherent path, you will struggle to have enough resources to continue your search as a hobby.

I guess that's what I get philosophizing on a science forum... I'll be starting with math. I have the idea I'd like to explore quantum physics especially.
