I got to build a transmission and a bubble machine! I also found that I have a natural flair for machining…and was able to do well in the course. It’s also very empowering to know that I know my way around these machines down there, can really get my hands dirty and prove myself as a true MechE ;).
Yep…so this is the real deal, guys…hardcore MechE stuff–the other kind of "shop-ping" I’m good at 😉

Her second blog “Class in Session: E/ME 105” discussed her experience in an engineering course that involved designing for (and traveling to!) the developing world of Guatemala. Read her latest blog: “Sweet Life of a Second Term Senior” to see how she keeps busy with her senior thesis and extracurricular activities.
