Hmm...
To make a long story short, there was a science fair and I got so engrossed in my project that I didn't even realize that the deadline for the submissions was approaching. I eventually managed to finish it (right on time) and later, when I saw all of the other projects on display at the fair, I realized just how important and far-reaching science was and how much I wanted to learn about it to understand how everything worked. In short, I was inspired to devote myself to learning as much about science as I possibly could, eventually resulting in my cutie mark and maybe more importantly, one of my jobs right now.
