While growing up, I thought studying science meant becoming a Doctor or a nurse. So even though I wanted to study science(even against my parents will) I knew I'd be a bad doctor because I hated hospitals and injections. So after high school, I decided to study Biochemistry at the University but I got admitted to study Geomatic Engineering instead. I didn't like it initially but gradually I realised the enormous benefit of engineering, surveying and geographic information systems in solving problems in my society and I loved it. Now I may not have ended up as a Doctor but I still get to save lives every day!
