BILL NYE!!

SO, I got to meet one of my childhood superheros the other day! thats right bill nye! and just in case you were wondering they did play his theme song before he came on stage so it would have been worth your time to go. I was lucky enought to get seats the fourth row in in the middle!
Bill talked about alot of diffrent things, but one thing that he said the most was that "we can CHANGE THE WORLD!" he did kinda yell it too. lol but he talked about all of these ideas and the advances we were making the the scientific community. He kept telling us that yes there are problems in the world but its us as the future generation who can fix these problems and can make the world better. we can create a way to lower the earths temperature, we can create a way to easily and safely go to the moon. (btw 550 people have gone into space! did you think it was that many? cause i had no idea...)  I just kept thinking this man has devoted his life to science and to helping make the world a better place and he has over 500 students here listening to what he is saying.
The things bill said were amazing, sometimes i didn't always know where he was going with things but it was wither funny or interesting so he had my attention for the whole time. He even made up a few words, very dr seuss worthy. It was fun to try and see the ASL interperators fingerspell them because they were soooo long and weird sounding.
So basically i just wanted to reaffirm the fact the Bill Nye is amazing, that he belives that we can change the world and create things to fix the world and i am in full agreement with him. if we want this world to last and be the best that it can be its our job to try and fix it. to make it better, to make it last. Bill pointed out that most people fall in love with science before the age of ten. I realized that i went to space camp when i was 9 and that is when i fell in love with astronomy and science. I want to help other kids fall in love with science too, how i am going to do that? i have no idea....
