I haven't finished the whole article, but I can resonate with this specific statement: > "However, just a couple of months into my project, I figured out, I wouldn’t find anyone to discuss my research with..." While studying physics and math, many, and I mean *many* of my friends had a difficult time trying to understand both, sometimes they would get bored and just try to get the "just right" grade to pass. I had that one friend that you like to discuss things and exchange ideas and concepts from this world, but this friend would halt his course and move on with other things and/or job. After some time, I would get bored because none of my fellows had the patience to understand or try to grasp the basics of what makes, at least for me, these fields so interesting, like "bootstrap concepts" (Newton's laws, Thermodynamics, Trigonometry, etc...). I don't blame them. The basic education in my country (Brazil) is somewhat crippled, not all of it mind you, but in my experience, it was depressing. And of course, no one is obliged to have fun with this, I'm not complaining about this, I'm sad because there's almost no one I can talk to about this, and not that "I was better" than them, by no means, it's just that had an acute interest in these topics; this is one of the reasons I quit my degree in Computer Science, half a year through. Nowadays I look for someone to interact with, about something new that I learned or that now I understand better. Right now, I'm looking for a friend that wants to study chemistry, physics or mathematics for fun, but with a deep interest.
