I am going to college next year. I want to study neuroscience. I am training to be an eagle scout. I volunteer at a research lab. I do not have any pets. I have always wanted to scuba dive. I am scared of sharks.
I just divorced my wife. I love to scuba dive in Hawaii. I have been to Hawaii three times. I find marine life so interesting. I am planning to go shark diving in the steel cage. I am a thrill seeker. I will study  Neuroscience classes next year. I am a veteran. I have 2 pet Snakes named Hensel and Gretel. I like Hensel and Gretel Folk tales.
I saw an interesting documentary about shark diving, they are not attracted to the blood in the water. Did you know about that ? No, I had no idea. That'll make me feel much safer when I go diving. What are they attracted to then? I've heard sharks have a good sense of smell.  I was surprised to hear that it wasn't the blood since that's what you typically see in the movies etc. I had no idea. That's so interesting! That makes movies like Jaws completely different in real life. Does that make you any less worried about sharks when you go scuba diving sometime?  Yes, it gives me some comfort but not much.  It's always when we approach the summer months when you hear about increased shark attacks.  That's because the seal population has increased and the food is plentiful. I didn't know that about seals. O Oh yes, the seal population is high on the east coast.  There was a report on the television the other day about a huge shark located off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts.  They try to tag and track the sharks so they can keep their location known. That's so interesting. You have a lot of knowledge. When you study neuroscience, are you looking to do zoology and research with animals or are you looking to work with humans after college? I looking to work with humans.  It's so fascinating.  I hope some day I can help cure neurological diseases. I prefer animals to humans, but that's just because they are easier to get along with most of the time. :?) That's amazing what you're planning to do, though. There are so many terrible diseases that we can't cure yet. That's a funny comment.  I'm chuckling.  Yes, if we put our minds to it, I bet we can accomplish many things regarding diseases.  It's amazing over the course of the years how we've come up with many vaccines to eradicate infections diseases/viruses.  I know, right? We need to get all the research done that we can. I'm using the GI Bill to take some neuroscience classes next year. I can't wait!
