It's recently come to me that I'll never be afforded the opportunity to go to college if I ever am returned home. I never had the time to really think what that means, but it doesn't sit well with me. So here's a list of things I'd like to learn. If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.

Any sort of physics.
Mechanical Engineering.
Any Engineering, though Mechanical seems to be where I thrive.
History - any, particularly Earth, but I'd like to learn about any culture.
Science. I decided to broaden from just physics - especially if there's chemical engineering. I've dabbled with bio-chemistry here as well, building medical equipment.
-Genetics would be interesting.
Combat skills, particularly hand to hand. Not that this is something collegiate, but it would be helpful.

I think that's it, but if there's anything along these lines that could help, I'd be interested.

I'm done. Finally finished. Both pieces are usable now.

Hm. That is a good question. I am particularly interested in Ancient Chinese, Japanese and Indian history, personally. Though relatively recent, I am quite versed in the history of the Anglophone Caribbean - the West Indies, if you may - and I've taken many a trip around Europe as well. I find many branches of biological and chemical sciences to be quite interesting, particularly Evolutionary Biology. Even though considered a pseudo-science by many, I've been recently a bit fascinated by the concept of Eugenics. Even though I am not particularly fond of metaphysical studies, it was almost necessary at one point to dabble in that a bit, as well.

Evolutionary Biology isn't a pseudo-science. Well not from what I've learned here. It's like Forensic Anthropology.

[cantacquityou]

As for pseudo-science, I was referring to Eugenics.

[signedlefthanded]

Oh. That makes a little more sense.

[cantacquityou]

May I ask your age if it isn't too boorish?

[signedlefthanded]

I was sixteen when I arrived here. I'm seventeen now.

[cantacquityou]

It is admirable to see one as you with such a voracious appetite for knowledge.

[signedlefthanded]

It's how I grew up.

[cantacquityou]

As did I. Perhaps for not as honourable a reason as you, however.

[signedlefthanded]

My parents were part of a secret organization.

[cantacquityou]

...


I suppose if I were to inquire, it would no longer be a secret.

[signedlefthanded]

It's a long story. What it was intended for, even I could not tell you. And now -- the last safe place is safe no more. So it really doesn't matter.
