Subject: CERN, Geneva or Japan?

So, Flood, I have a dilemma.

My sixth form is offering an exchange visit to japan this summer and a trip to CERN in Geneva this coming October.

However, I can only go to ONE, due to money conditions. My career choice relates to engineering, computing, electronics and physics.

Choices?

Paranoia is a very comforting state of mind. If you think they're out to get you, it means you think you matter.

CERN for sure. I did a study abroad in Japan, and unless you're fluent in Japanese, I would not expect much out of their engineering courses that are offered there.

CERN, easily. It would be a pretty cool thing to put on a CV, assuming a physics related job.

Nothing to do with university. I'd have a japanese student over in march for a couple of weeks, then go over there for a couple of weeks in the summer.

Geneva is awesome. Go there.

This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends;
Not with a bang but a whimper.

CERN. I thought it'd have been obvious.

Well, unless you understand and can speak Japanese...

Japan, i have always wanted to go.

and you cant really put "I visited CERN once..." on your CV people.

Why not if you were applying for a physics related job, when they have a giant supercollider there?

It's a good point. We'd get full tours.

It's a trip my school have done before and it's open to my year this year.

Yeah Winter.. it's coming.

I love The Flood. It's my go to place for relaxation. If anyone needs me, then I'll be there.

Japan.

For many different reasons.
That's a hard choice.

Good luck.
