I never was sure what I wanted to do, possible because I didn't get ANY sort of career guidance or advice. My own passions motivated me and turned me towards different directions to where I stand.
I am good in studies, but always have the feeling that I never try my best.
MIT was my dream, but I got rejected, and am now a freshman at UCSD.
I plan to apply for transfer admission to MIT again for Fall 2010, if my GPA is good enough.
I am good in every subject, and can perform good in all of them if I want to, but I have started to run away from certain social sciences (philosophy oriented, arguing pointlessly like in political science) and chemistry.
Currently, my attitude blows away my grade, and I realize I need to get a grip. Fall quarter was terrible, 3B's and a C in a mandatory writing course.
I love Physics. I love Math. I hate Chemistry.

Now for the real part.
I have an idea what I want to do, but I don't know which major/path to choose, because I never got any guidance.
My dream was to be able to discover, innovate, design, revolutionize, and then physically create and construct.
Be it cars, robots, or machines. I want to be able to do everything.
I never really knew how to express this.
Now this may seem funny and pointless.
But when I saw Iron Man, I was like hey, this is what I want to do! (except, of course, for the part of creating weapons).
Now I never told this to anyone, because it seems really childish. As if I admire a superhero, like any kid fantasizes to be superman. But that is what I want to do.
So what is it?
What do you call what I want?
Is it possible to be one person and do a variety of so many different things?
Once I know what to focus on, I can do a double major.
I hope you get what I'm trying to express.
Thank you
