I have always wanted to become a scientist, even when I was younger, so my family was never surprised I wanted to do a PhD.

With my friends, those that are not scientists are happy that I found something I enjoy, even if they may not understand exactly what I talk about sometimes. My more scientific friends are happy that I found an interesting scientific challenge to explore.
