What am I passionate about? When I consider this question, I immediately think about what passion is. I guess I figure its meaning to refer to an activity that doesn't seem to be a trial or a labor. I contrast it with activities that are tiresome and boring.
One of my main passions is music. Whether it's listening to music or making it on the drums, music is one of the things that keep me sane.
Another one of my passions is math, particularly calculus. I guess I just like the order in the madness of it all. In recent years, I've taken up private tutoring as a means to earn some extra income. I've mainly worked with family friends that are in AP Calculus at the high school level. If I can toot my own horn, I think I'm very good at relating this very 'esoteric' material. I love it when the students I work with finally understand something. I could always see it in their eyes when something finally clicked. I think, if after some time that I've been successful in my career as an engineer, I'd like to teach math either at the college or high school level.
