First.....you know I should be a digital native right? I'm almost 22, and basically...I'm finding mroe and more that not only leaps i ntechnology but, to some extent, scientific understanding scares me. It's so stupid, it's so pathetic, and I don't even know why. I've seriously gone from being someone who wanted to study the sceinces, to being utterly horrified of the cold, sterile, technical world, latching onto anything that isn't perfectly explained and desperately trying to avoid subjects taht explain things I care about or find meaningful. Even though, on some intellectual level, I know most things are explainable. But once you know, you're not allowed to view it or experience it the same way, and I can't bear to lose that...

Plus, there's the entire zeitgeist issue of the incoming "robot revolution" where the only jobs soon to be available are STEM, which I'm ont only bad at but scared of now...any advice? I know I'm annoying, but I don't like feeling stuck. And I definitely hate having this pop into my head every time I start looking into job training...
