Out of school studying

I regularly study topics of interest to me with a sense of wonder and the capacity to learn something new. Such topics include, but are not limited to, chemistry, biology, neuroscience, calculus and applied mathematics, debate, psychology, religion and theology, and philosophy. The beauty lies in the pursuit, where I eagerly embrace the world of knowledge out of sheer volition, my mind an insatiable explorer of these wondrous domains.
