2011-03-10 - One More Month

I take great joy in the fact that in a little over a month I'll be done all the big things. The design project presentation day is the 9th of April and the Phil final paper is due on the 5th. The design project itself is going rather well, we've got some things that are in some sort of a state of working and nothing has blown up. The Phil thing is harder because who knows that you're supposed to do for a Phil report? We're mostly scientists and engineers taking this course as an elective come on man. Oh well, you have to pull things out of your behind sometimes for school. The other three courses should be easy, ENGG 400 is barely a course, ENG M 310 is easy money (it's easy and about money) and CH E 243 is odd but fairly simple. I just need to remember to sleep, man am I exhausted.

Another interesting thing I've concluded this week is that you couldn't pay me to take business. I see those people talking about how successful engineers they are with their using business degrees to run companies and I think that's not engineering. I don't want to become an engineer so I can run a company, I don't want to run a company. People who want to run companies are crazy. I want to design stuff and be one of those weird guys with solar powered saws (My design prof made one of those). Designing is what engineering's about and I want to be an engineer. Damn business people.
