Marine biologist
Then I discovered that I just don't like being wet

Me either. Against cat nature. But I do like fish.
Had a friend who went into that field. What drew you to it initially?
Jaws
Saw it when I was... 7 I think. Bruce really made an impression and I wanted to work for the Oceanographic Institute like Hooper
That was one of the first “scary movies” I was allowed to watch as a kid.
Kinda cool that something supposed to frighten you drew you in.
Actually, it didn't really scare me. The shark was doing what sharks do and the kid didn't belong in the ocean. It wasn't the shark's fault he found an easy snack.
After swim class in high school, I lost interest in water. And it finally clicked: the kid didn't belong in the ocean.
That’s a deep insight to have as a kid! Lol.
I’ll never understand the people who poke bears and grab snakes by the tail all while telling us how dangerous they are! 🤣
