I'm flattered that you even mentioned it, but I personally really don't think I'm good-looking enough for all that, anyway.

Hey, all, new member here. Was hoping somebody could give me a little guidance. I recently started going back to school, and am definitely interested in pursuing a career in applied science or engineering, and would even go as far as to say I have an aptitude for math and science. But here's the thing--I hate computers. I'm in no way shape or form interested in sitting in front of one for eight hours a day, five days a week. That's my idea of hell. I'd much rather be in a lab of some sort, working with my hands. What sort of educational paths could get me there? As of right now, I'm thinking of working towards a degree in applied physics, ideally with an emphasis in electricity and magnetism (my favorite topic), as opposed to, say, an electrical engineering degree. Is this misguided? I've considered becoming a run-of-the-mill electrician, which is a great career, but I feel I'm just a little too cerebral for all that. Any input is appreciated.
