I have now been involved in the field of optics for roughly five years, with no end in sight... No, seriously, optics is a very interesting field, although it does stick out like the proverbial sore thumb amidst my other interests. I started on this path my sophomore year, back in '94, and I look to complete my Master's in Optical Science in the spring of '00. I'm not quite sure yet what field I want to go into, exactly. I'll just wait and see what comes along...
