Background to a Major Decision

Well, I started out as a physics major, thinking that I would attend grad school for mechanical engineering and work on plane engines. I had the entire thing figured out and planned, as most of us did after high school. I came to be that I was and am very interested in mechanics, but not interested in an academic sense; it is more of a hobby.

Anyways, push came to shove and I got really interested in the mathematical hemisphere of my physics classes. I also was taking a few random classes that I was interested in; they all tended to be political science classes. But I really do not like the curriculum for the PS majors. SO, I started to relate the two fields and browse political indicators. Now, I have a huge interest in measurable aspects of indication and how they predict or do not predict developmental happenings.

Que mas? I hope to gear my project towards the life of an indicator. Something dealing with everyday relation; you know, simple relation for better understanding.
