fight4thefuture Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Hello everyone,My name is Julian. I'm a 17 year-old aspiring Objectivist from central Jersey. I'm currently a junior at a pre-med oriented high school, and my life ambition is to be a plastic surgeon. Plastic surgery interests me because it's a combination of medicine and aesthetics--it's like sculpting, but human sculpting, which really intrigues me (that may sound a little strange, haha). I want to disprove the widespread belief that plastic surgery is superficial. I think that it is perfectly rational to want to improve your appearance, so long as it is done tastefully. This is a wonderful forum you have. I already like it better than any other Objectivist sites I've been to. This one isn't so hostile, and it seems like a good place for me to learn and grow as a young Objectivist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
