Do+You+Consider+Yourself+a+Scientist+-+Ashley

I do consider myself a scientist because I can ask myself questions about the world around me; things like how does this work or why doesn't this work. Then I usually "observe" all of its features to see what seems to be out of order. Some things I always observe are what happens or doesn't happen when I touch this, or does it make a sound when I touch this, things like that. Then I fix it, if I can figure it out, of course. Mostly I fix electronics, like alot of times when my laptop doesn't work I try pushing different buttons to see what happens when I push them so that I know what to do next time it stops working. Another thing I do is recognize small details in things and sounds. Like if I am listening to some type of music, I'll know when a new instrument joins in or an old one stops playing, mostly in techno music or in classical. I think that observation is an important part of being a scientist because you can't just look at something for two seconds and expect to know all about its features and how it works. You also have to make inferences like the time when my laptop broke,I had to make inferences on why it was broken. There are many different ways to think like a scientist but only some people do it without having to think about it.
