My first time of drawing a syntax tree was while taking <Intro. to Linguistics> in my freshmen year and it looked horrible. (For one thing, the tree was abundant; there were numeral - which I mean by "more than two and even five" - branches per node!) I thought I never would have to encounter linguistics (and also syntax) ever again in my life, but now I regard myself as a linguist and a syntactician; and it's one thing about me that I wish would never change.
