The class was very interesting. The teacher showed me how physics was able to explain the mysteries of the universe from the random motion of atoms to the movement of the heavenly bodies. The ability to explain all of these concepts interested me greatly. Since then, I decided to pursue my knowledge of physics which culminated in my entrance into the camp. I am going to attend Princeton University next year and I look forward to all that I am going to learn in the camp.
