Question: Why did your interest switch from English to science? ??☺️

I’m not sure there was one specific reason. I was always really curious when I was growing up. Whenever a teacher told me something I really wanted to know why it was true and would keep bugging them until they gave me an explanation.

As I was studying science at school I realised that the whole idea of science is for you to find out these things to yourself. When you do an experiment, you actually prove to yourself that something is true. You can even change it in small ways to try and figure out what the limits of that situation are, and it will sometimes give you an idea as to why that thing is true.
