This entire internship has been based around my preparation for college, so my mentor and I have talked a lot about his experiences. He went to UCSD and did not start out in Computer Science. He began in physics, took a CS class, and found that he like Computer Science much better and was good at it. The point is, it is okay to not know what I want to do before going to college. This is something I have grappled over for a long time, and I think I am coming to terms with it. I think it is good that I am exploring my options before college, but I also know that my interest can easily change and that's okay. Below is an image of my mentor as he looks most days, dressed casually and working from home, definitely not a bad life.
