I am a sophomore in high school taking my local physics 1 course. I love trying to wrap my head around abstract concepts like consciousness and higher dimensions .over all higher sciences. I often get frustrated with my lack of math knowledge to comprehend some of it but I figure I need to be patient and someday I will. Its very excited to finally have a physics community to relate with. My family and friends tend to find it degrading to talk about so I keep my personal discoveries and exuberance pent up. I look forward to getting a release through this forum! Thanks guys!
