have u ever heard of this song before?it's usually famous in those Disney movies....can't really remeber the lyrics...but the last part is...when u wish upon a star,ur dreams come true.......unfortunately today i'd like to talk about my dream that didn't come true....not yet maybe. but first i'd like to mention why my blog is named Andromeda.i guess most of you have heard this name before....it's actually a name of the nearest spiral galaxy from our Milky Way.yeah.isn't it beautiful.love it!plus the cool name its as if this galaxy is full of super powers!haha.enough of that.
well believe it or not,i've always wanted to become a Nasa Asronomer since i was a little girl.I'm a HUGE fan of astronomy and i just think that it's the most amazing thing in the whole universe!haha.i used to dream having my own telescope n my own observatory centre with all those constellation charts n cool stuff around.....sort of like my own space agency.if i'm not mistaken my interest in astronomy started way back in grade 4....i was in mr.Eddy's class....an Irish teacher of mine who taught me science in Cobbet Elementary School,Boston Massachusetts.My classmates and I actually had to do a science project:a papier mache solar system.in order to do so we first had to do our own research and coming across many great books about astronomy and all those breathtaking pictures,I began to fell in love with the subject immediately.I had a whole lot of fun doing it. when it was finally finished,we hung it on our ceilings.pretty cool paper mache solar system with facts attached to it on top of our heads.imagine that.cool ain't it! especially for us 4th graders.haha.from that day on my only ambition was to become an astronomer .
as i grew up,i started to realize that becoming an astronomer is definitely not an easy thing...u can't simply be one just because you're super interested in it.it requires more than that.though i've tried ,unfortunately i never actually understood all those quantum physic theories and everything.so when the time came to decide what subject i would want to pursue my studies in.....i actually went through a very serious dilemma .In the end after long hours of thinking and actually went nutz a couple of times...haha...yup...i opted for my second choice instead..that is to major in International Relations instead of in astronomy.sort of like the road not taken case.yeah
i know these 2 subjects are worlds apart but hey that's just what i like.can't blame me!
So,now am trying my best to do well in this path of life that i have chosen.no regrets soo far.Just because i'm studying something different right now doesn't mean that i have to forget my passion.though i might not do it as a career,my love for astronomy still remains.and right now,i'm thinking of joining a club in the future for amateur astronomers.haha.yeah,there's a part of me still wanting to try and achieve this dream of mine.so maybe i'll be an astronomer after all!!!who knows.....think about it...an astronomer/ ambassador...sounds good eh!...haha...love it!
may it come true!!!
...star light,star bright...
.....................i wish upon the stars tonight,
...................................i wish i may,i wish i might,
............................................keep shining like the stars at night!!!
