Chemical Engineering's really diverse.  I like this view of it:  We make some chemicals into others, as well as the machines that conduct those processes.  (Well, we design the machines.. the actual construction of the machines is for the factories.)  ChemE's do everything from making processes to make medicines, new materials, to oil refinery stuff, to operating/designing processing plant units, etc.

Honestly, I chose it for the money.  Several sources told me it was the highest paying major back when I was trying to decide, so I went with it.  While I'm fond of working, I see work as more of a responsibility to be dealt with.  One that can be pleasant, but still not my primary purpose in life.  So I wanted something to give me as much bang for my time as possible.  Hence, ChemE.

It's truly growing on me, though.  I really just plain like the subject and the people involved in it, all the way from my advisor who's been an excellent source of tips and knowledge to that silly girl who sits infront of me, that spent her time tryingto make me feel better when I had the flu.  The material can be fun, and I can take it to ends that interest me.

Once I'm all done with this, I want to make my millions and then start my own projects.  I'm determined to make new life forms, and I'm quite sure I'll be able to do it.  (New, intelligent ones.  Not just lemmings.)  Transhumanism and the generalized definition of "individual" have touched me pretty deeply.

Sorry, ranting.  While it's technically the start of break, I still haven't slept yet.. so I'm in this awful state of confussion and disorientation of thoughts.  Time for some sleep for me!

I hope it all goes well for you this break.  ;)  Since I'm sure I'll read it tommorow.. what's journalism like?  By this, I mean.. how do you feel about it?  What're some thoughts on your likes/dislikes?
