Thanks for the responses. I must say that although money is a strong motivator it's not the primary one in this case. Ever since I was a kid I always knew what i wanted to study, either herpetology, or marine biology. Living in the Caribbean for a while as a kid, I spent lots of time around the beaches here, fascinated by all aspects of ocean life. I can distinctly still remember observing the different types of plants and animals that I had seen when out on the reefs and in the water, running home at the end of the day and learning as much about them as I possibly could. Wow, for some reason i felt like a little kid typing that last part out.. BTW, i would LOVE to get my scuba license, hopefully i can do that here in the next month or so before I have to go back to the mainland..
My fascination lies mainly with marine reptiles, amphibians and cephalopods but marine life and the ecosystems in general as even the different qualities of water itself still fascinate me. Unfortunately I took some unexpected turns in life and ended up where I didn't really want to and now after some wasted college years and a few changes in my major here I am. Depressing enough as it is to look back and see that I have wasted all that time pursuing something I just wasn't truly passionate about, maybe it's time to start again from scratch. So the story begins, I want to study different aquatic ecosystems and their continuing changes in the different climates as well as these effects on the life there, mainly cephalopods, reptiles and amphibious life with an emphasis on aquatic plants but fish and basically everything there as well... Pretty much a general type of specialization but I don't want to spend the next 10+ years doing so.. if that makes any sense...
