We all have different backgrounds. Working as a pharmacy tech and shadowing pharmacists are not the only ways to learn enough about the field to make an informed decision about why you want to study pharmacy.
While I'd like to agree, there is no substitute for actual experience.
Take a second and think about why medical schools - almost every last one of them - require a lot of shadowing experience.
"I watch House and ER" won't cut it. Same goes for "interacting" with pharmacists.
Although for your case specifically, "acting as a pharmacy technician" certainly would count.
