*Title*

We've been doing a bit of particle phyiscs in school recently and my mind is blown. I mean seriously, it's so much to comprehend! On the way to school this morning (for another day of physics!) I caught myself thinking about it and it's so hard to believe! And then the more I thought about it I realised that I actually find it quite hard to imagine there are even atoms but I've had quite a few years to get used to the idea and it seems quite normal to me now. I wonder if one day it will be obvious for fundamental particles to exist with strange (in both senses of the word!) characteristics and forces with invisible exchange particles and everything around us, everything in us to once have been squished into the tiniest space? I hope not. I want it to always be mindboggling and special.
