      So much fun!

      I build parts no one ever has before and then I get to break the parts to look inside them (which is also super fun) and I use 1 million pound pieces of equipment to test my samples (and look at the atoms inside them) and they’re going to be sending my parts into space and they’re basing laws on my research and I make posters about my research (my last one had a video in the poster – I stuck my iPad to it) and I hang out with James May and people from Nasa and I play with Lego and I’m paid for it and I get to sit in helicopters and tanks and I have the chance to make a difference.

      Well, I find these things fun!
