From what little I have learned about quantum physics, I really want to study it. It seems really interesting

I highly doubt that they offer it at our school, though.
If they do, then I'll sign up in a heart beat.

Self study is always an option. Anyway, quantum physics is a topic that's fun to talk about, but a bitch to actually do the work involved.

...

I wouldn't even be able to learn simple trig without a teacher.
Self-study for Quantum Phys? No way, Jose.

Hm.

I've finally decided on a subject for my master degree. Turns out i'll probably doing ANIS (applied intercultural language studies) with english as my first and spanish as my second language. Don't know what I should do as my third language... it's going to be either russian, japanese or arabic.

The internet is a surprisingly good teacher.

I could learn from the internet if I watched a series of videos with a person or person-like (such as an animated person, etc) teacher.

I just like having some kind of talking thing teaching me. I wouldn't mind if it was an animated animal.

"Illuminati" what do you think of when u hear/see that word.

Saras · « **Reply #8809 on:** May 04, 2012, 08:26:33 PM »

Illumination. A light bulb and crack head conspiracy theories by 15-year-olds or the otherwise crazy.

A secret organisation that I know nothing about

Ain't that the truth! (I originally went to college to become a physicist, and then reality sank in.)

You mean that Theoretical Physics is useless until you get a PH.D, and then you either to research and make okay money, but have to teach, or work in Finance and make CRAZY amounts of money but...well you work in finance so you probably don't sleep, or have a life out side of work.
