I would like to describe my life’s journey and the choices I have made so far from the perspective of a physicist. Unfortunately many of today’s students choose their fields of collegiate study based on their entrance exam scores rather than what they want to study. I also somewhat took an unusual path to being a physicist. A good news is that maybe it is just another cliche and you may heard something similar many times before but I can say with confidence that physics education is way more useful than any other education in terms of career choices one can make. As an example, I take this opportunity to describe how I ended up where I am and what I am currently doing for living.
