The Importance Of Affinity : Direction And Purpose

For years I have shown a passion for physics and I aspire to read it at a deeper level because of its many phenomena and applications, and the need for skilled physicists in the world, as without them, civilisation would struggle to thrive. The thought process and unique perceptions that physicists have are key in driving businesses and other innovations. Furthermore, society is hugely reliant on technology, resulting in physicists becoming increasingly important to both maintaining and creating new technological ideas. For example my work experience at Sky allowed me to see how the approach that the physicists there took enabled them to be very successful in their line of work. More importantly however, the beauty of physics is found on an intrinsic level which allows us to understand the universe we live in. For thousands of years, religious beliefs dominated explanations for important ideas such as how the universe was created, the afterlife, and of course the question of a deity. Religion shaped society for many years, but the intervention of physics has bravely challenged these once readily accepted views, creating a society that consists of

One of the most talked about topics is the metaphysical component. In which one sees the natural and sees how things work even when we are children. For example, imagine a dog, a cat, and a kangaroo in television and we set a group in our mind that tells that that these are in the category of animals, and successively other things as well. In my field of study, it’s in extreme importance to set the idea that what we

For as long as I could see the stars, I knew I wanted to reach them. Gazing at the stars gave me time to question how the world worked, and kindled my passion for science. The world of science intrigues me because it varies on so many levels. It ranges from the study of the smallest particles in the world to the research of the seemingly never-ending universe. With so much to learn, I never want to be absent in class and miss the opportunity of discovering something new. Science has influenced me to be curious as to why things work, and motivates me to find the explanations behind things.

I am an explorer with an omnivorous intellectual appetite, a natural born researcher. In preschool, I was addicted to trains, spending hours and hours organizing my train sets into size order and by color. As I grew older, I found myself delving into subjects that were interesting to me. One afternoon I would discuss nothing but particle accelerators; the next morning I’d spend

The gears in my mind began to turn. This fun-filled moment with my classmates sparked my curiosity into the realm of physics. That unforgettable autumn day was the catalyst for my fascination of the laws of

Early in life, I developed an aversion for linearity of mind. As I grew to grasp the concepts of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, I discovered what I call the harmony of science. I realized that scientific problems were best solved via a holistic,

So much can be explained through basic postulates that have been constructed from physics. The classical mechanics that dictate the motion of the human body, the electrical systems that form the basis of impulses in nerves and cardiac tissue, and so much more, captured my attention. In addition, even the mind-bending concepts of physics, such as quantum mechanics, fascinated and perplexed me. Time and time again, I would find ideas from physics enchanting. Though potentially putting my grades on the line, I decided to pursue physics as my core field of study.

Soren Wheelers’ goal when he speaks about science is to “get ideas and emotion to dance together and sing in people’s heads.”

I fondly remember the book sale of 4th grade when I bought my first Theodore Grey book. His book, The Elements, had just come out. Searching through the piles of science books, the sleek cover caught my eye. Upon opening the cover, it was like I discovered a whole new world.

This refulgent morning, fervour memories of the past washed over me like a soothing breeze, when this familiar student strutted before my eyes. I pondered to myself, is he still the same curious boy? At first sight, I did not recognise this young man, whom attended my lecture. But whilst he was with me, I could see through his dauntless eyes that he was a passionate young man, his countenance displayed an infallible guarantee to the future disciple of science. As soon as the lecture had terminated, the young man approached me and requested my advice concerning the books he ought

Since early childhood, I have always been an inquirer. Asking my parents questions they could not answer became expected of me. “Why is the sky blue?” “How is milk made?” Because they did not know the answer, my natural curiosity steered me to researching them for myself. I remember being awake during the late night, anticipating the theme song of my favorite show How It’s Made on the Discovery Channel. In these moments, I felt as if I was entering another world; a world where time did not exist, things made sense, and my curiosity was fulfilled.

Since I was a child, Science related books fascinates me a lot, especially about different types of animals and the universe. I used to ask a bunch of questions like why does the clouds float, why does the moon chase us wherever we go, why frogs have long tongues, why sharks must be avoided, why stars are not present in daytime and other absurd questions that a 5 year old

When I was seven years old I made a huge discovery about science. I realized that everything that surrounds me; the tree in my yard, the house that I live in, and the chair that I am sitting in right now are made of the same exact materials that I am made of! I made this discovery whilst I was discussing science with my dad. Earlier that day, at school we had been talking about molecules and how they were made of atoms. My dad often likes to extend my understanding of subjects which I study at school, which is what he was doing that day. Since we had discussed atoms and molecules in school my dad had decided to go a little further with me, and talk about what atoms were made of. This led us to the subject of protons, neutrons and electrons. Over the course of the next few days he taught me the basics of what I have now come

Since receiving my first home science kit at the age of five, the study of the natural and

Bill Greene’s personal essay “Science Nourishes the Mind and the Soul” informs us about the authors experience with science. His mind-opening story starts off by him going to a planetarium when he was a young kid. He realized that the universe is so big and wondered if his life held any significance. Then years later, the issue still on his mind, he decides to take action and to teach kids about the universe and how it functions. With the reactions of the now educated kids, Bill Greene found it to be very important to be aware of our universe then to feel uninformed. He also found that it is better to live on this planet and understand the universe's’ laws so you can appreciate your live upon it and know that it is more than
