And even though I got very little exposure to that during my largely classical Christian homeschooling education that didn't really have much of a focus in the physical sciences at all, I fell in love with all that stuff.

But I wound up getting so in love with that that I went pre-med. I took the MCATs. I actually did get accepted to six different medical schools and opted not to go to medical school.
