      I guess it is for Lilian?

      I love that we can do things that we enjoy doing. I dont think I really hate anything 🙂

      I love discovering new things! I wouldn’t say there was anything I hated about being a scientist – maybe early mornings?

      Same here as Deepak and Francesca. I love finding out new things about our Universe. I don’t see how you can hate something so interesting, I wouldn’t do any other job if I had the chance.

      I love being able to learn new things every day, which is what being a scientist is all about. Sometimes the thing that I’m trying to learn is very complicated, and that can be difficult, so that’s the thing I probably hate the most, but that is rare so luckily being a scientist is a lot of fun!

      Sorry for the late reply! I love being able to come up with new ways of looking at a problem and trying to solve it. I get to be imaginative every day. I guess I wouldn’t say I hate anything, but I don’t enjoy it as much when things don’t work. Thankfully I have enough patience to get over that and then try something new the next time! 🙂
