When I was a kid and people would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would always say an astronaut. Space has always fascinated me. I used to be convinced I was going to be an astronaut. In grade 8 I even researched universities in Canada that granted Space / Astronomy degrees in physics. It wasn't until the 9th grade or so that my dream started to fizzle. Growing up, space was always my primary passion. Now, that's not to say I'm not happy with who I turned out to be. I love my degree in English and the versatility it has provided me, and I love working in restaurants. A lot. If space was my obvious primary passion, then I guess you could say food (and eating in general) where my secondary passion, albeit if it wasn't obvious to me at the time. Hell, for over a year or so I've even been tossing around the idea of opening up my own restaurant later on in life.
However, announcements like the one from today not only make me giddy, but make me wonder if I should have kept my childhood dream alive.
