      I realised I liked science when I was at high school and had to pick subjects for standard grade (Scottish equivalent of GCSE). I was more interested in the science subjects than other subjects. I liked science stuff before that but never really realised it was science!

      How did this benefit my life? Well I have a career as a scientist, I get to do really cool experiments and teach awesome students, it’s fun and it’s interesting and no two days are ever the same. At the moment, I can’t imagine doing anything else 🙂
