Raised in an environment of the English culture and academics while living in Bangladesh, I grew up as an individual with multicultural perspectives. Those very perspectives became the vertebrae of my personality and shed light to my shadowy dedication towards universe's beauty and the science that governs it. Fueling this dedication and establishing itself as the heart of my personality, was the American educational system.
The British educational system was quite different and unique in the sense that it provided rigorous effort and providence in the path of success. Each year, we would have science fairs where students would compete against each other with a project establishing a scientific principle. In my early years, I was just a mere spectator of those projects as I was too young to take part in it. Then one year, I came across a project about the solar system and how it is arranged. Awestruck and stunned by the beauty of our solar system, I became extremely curious of how these marvelous objects are the way they are.
The British educational system emphasizes a lot on math and science: making us take 3 to 4 science classes each year. So, as time went by I got more and more engaged into science: going on science trips, taking a number science courses and getting involved in my yearning science fairs. During my first science fair, I did a replication of the very solar system that stunned me and was awarded first prize. Then as time went by, my science fair projects got more and more complicated in respect to my increasing inclination towards science.
However, these science classes and fairs only gave me a perspective that can only be described as "the visible side of the moon". The other dark side of the moon was revealed to me when I first came here in the United States in 2010. For me, the difference in the educational systems were stark. However, the final boosts of inspiration were provided right here in the United States
