Do you work or study?  I'm studying at the moment. I'm in the fourth year of my degree, so basically, I'm almost done.   2. What subject do you study, and why did you choose it?   I chose to major in environmental science. I guess I have always been passionate about nature and conservation, so this just seemed like a natural fit for me. Basically, I want to understand the natural world better and, hopefully, make a difference in protecting our environment.   3. Do you enjoy your courses? I do, and even more than I thought I would! It's true that some subjects are tougher than others, but I have had the privilege to study under some of the world's most renowned experts in this field which makes up for these challenging courses.   4. Do you carry a bag with you when you go to university?   I do, and it's usually just my laptop bag with a few snacks for the day. There is really no need to carry any hard copy books in this day and age.     5. What did you carry in your bag when you went to primary school?   Oh, this question really takes me back! I was one of those kids that always had tons of stationary and huge pencil boxes. I always kept my books neat and tidy, and my prized possessions were my pack of colour gel pens and scented erasers.     6. What type of bag do you take with you when you go on holidays?   Strangely enough, I hardly pack anything except the bare essentials. I just bring along a small carry-on bag. The main reason why is actually a bit funny though! I never have to overpack, because I always travel with my elder brother, and his luggage usually includes everything you could possibly need on holiday.
