What are you reaching for?

1) Languages, I want to know every language this world has to offer. But I don't really want to be a linguist. I want to become a NASA engineer. I want to push mankind as far as possible, even if that means to mars. But more importantly, I want to effect the world. I want to be the pebble that causes the ripple, that leads to the wave, and ends up as a tidal wave. I want this world to feel my footprint in whatever way possible.

2) So far I have english, french, and arabic. I'm hoping to learn spanish and italian (with the french this will be easy) along side russian, japanese, and mabye some germanic languages. In engineering, I'm doing some studying by myself and enrolling in the florida institute of technology (biggest school for aerospace engineering, it works with nasa). But I don't know how this world should take me yet. Am I looking for politics? Is that what I was put here for?

Good topic, btw.
