Hans Christian Andersen said, “Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.” I, as a junior student at SAU Honors College and Chemistry major, made my bucket list. Here it is.
- 1. Become a U.S. Navy officer. Someone once said that the sea seems calm, but not inside of it. Nature gives the sea a lot of beautiful properties and also makes it so mysterious. The sea can always calm us while at some time keep us thinking more deeply. Also, I like sunshine and water. For a science major, The U.S. Navy is a good place to carry out interesting research projects.
- 2. Become a research professor. My dad is a professor. I have wanted to become a professor since I was a kid. Professors may not make lots of money like Bill Gates, but they possess something invaluable, the freedom to pursue their own interests. No matter whether I end up as a civilian or as a military officer, my career will be research oriented and it will be a big part of my life.
- 3. Play the piano well. Science, music, art and literature are all connected. Many famous scientists are also accomplished artists, musicians and writers. Those humanistic subjects can inspire scientists. I have never played any instruments and I am a poor singer, but last semester I accidentally discovered that I can play the piano well and I been playing ever since.
- 4. Own a Goldendoodle. A goldendoodle is a hybrid cross between Golden Retriever and Poodle. They are very cute dogs and make great companions.
- 5. Sprout a pair of wings. God did create the atoms or even the essential particles. However, He did not limit our ability to re-order nature. As genetic technology develops, I believe that one day I grow real wings on my back, as in the movie “X-man”, and I can fly not in a metal box but with my own wings flying in the nature, with the nature and touching the nature.
