Hello all! I'm just a first year science student at University of British Columbia in Canada who has a love for literature/arts/history/music and yet most likely going to math/physics. Don't take me wrong, I love math/physics exceedly, it's just that I seem to have two very distinct lives: in my spare time I write/read more lit and art stuff and in school I'm hard core math/physics.

Currently reading Dubliner as well as occasionally the work of Keat's, his poems makes me smile and happy. I've generally read a lot of Victorian English books, but not that many contemporary outside of school. I'm also a fan of Chinese literature, especially poems, for reciting poetry was the first thing I learned! And aftewards I've read quite a lot of Chinese poetry from both Tang dynasty and Song dynasty.

That's..um...about it. So glad to meet you all!

Well, welcome to the forums Splendour... I too am science based (Geology, Geochemistry, Petroleum Geology). I think you will like it here.

You'll find there are a lot of well-round litnetters who both love the sciences (and even math,although I am not one of those :p) and literature. Welcome! I am sure you will have a great time here :)

Yes, me too Splendour. I'm a mechanical engineer, so i've had my share of physics and math. Welcome. I hope you will enjoy lit net.
