... and now on with my senior year disscussion.

I'm glad that the embedded slid share worked. Never done that before.

SO... Senior Year.

The first thing that I have to say is that its been tough. There's been so much work and so little time, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Less than a week and I will have graduated... sort of. I'm finishing up my last class this summer. Yep, that's right. One class. How did that work? I have no idea. I'm glad though. This summer will be a nice vacation. I will get to spend my last semester at MTU during the summer. So I think that I will remember school better this way. Less work more play.

Things I loved about my senior year:

• Meeting lots of new people.
• Completing of some tough but fun projects.
• The fact that I can now see how much I have matured since freshman year.

Some of my gripes:

• Work load, 3 projects, and all equally as tough.
• How enterprise still has to do senior design (hmm... I'll touch on this in a bit).

Now as much as I love MTU there are some things that bothered me. When I first decided to join enterprise (extracurricular alternative to Senior Design) it was purly and ALTERNATIVE to the senior design class in the mechanical engineering department. A year and a half later they (who I don't really know) changed it so that enterprise was required to take a one semester senior design. This was dissapointing because it required me to complete one more senior level project than expected. Then, recently, they changed it back. I got stuck in the two years of pain. I have completed it though. Pain gone.

SO that is why this summer will be a vacation. Ahhhhhh (sigh of releif).
I hope everyone else gets as much satisfaction from completing school as I have.
