Interest Inventory
History
I have always been interested by history and religion. The idea
that what has ever happened in history is affecting us today. History
doesnt seem real sometimes; how could the American Revolution
actually happen and religion can seem out of this world. In particular I
like mysteries of history. European history in particular spikes my
interest; there is such a rich background from Europe and Asia. I would
like to know about cultures, how they changed over time, and trends in
culture. How can religion affect a culture along with happiness?
Habits
I know I have habits, so does everyone else, good or bad. What
causes habits? Is it chemicals in the brain? Which ones? I can guess
that habits come from addictive properties in our brain. Id like to know
what causes people to choose good over bad habits.

Is it

subconscious? Do we actively choose which habits we chose? What

does one need to do to get over bad habits? Do we always keep
habits? Do we switch from bad habit to bad habit when we try to quit?
Jobs

Rodgers 2
Jobs are things that everyone strives towards. We want to find
the right job for us something to make up happy in the long run.
Humans go to a job everyday, work to make money and buy
necessities and luxuries. What makes us choose what we want to do?
Why arent we happy with any old job, why do we need specific duties?
Hobbies
I like to paint and be artistic although I am not very artistic
myself. I know hobbies can be very expensive. I wonder what makes it
worth it for people to spend so much money on hobbies. They are
worth it; hobbies make us happy and take our mind of something that
we are dealing with. Hobbies are not big enough to be jobs, but people
can turn them into jobs, such as baking, creating clothes, and small
town family businesses. Hobbies can be anything from working out to
gardening.
