The Post-Spring Break Report

This is unbelievable!  My spring break really went as planned!  Upon my return to Austin…

Monday: Took my friends around Austin to eat and check out where I study.  The roads definitely require a lot of patience.  During the walking tour of campus, they went to an old video games store and a comic book store.  That definitely made their trip.

Tuesday: Worked all day at Pickle Research Campus with the solar car team to put the foam blocks for the upper portion of the Samsung Solorean‘s body together.  One of the challenges we are facing is aligning the blocks perfectly in two axes at the same time on an uneven floor (height and length).  Once finished, it looks approximately like this:

 

Wednesday, Thursday: Went to YPS Facility Services to help sand foam blocks that will become the mold for the bottom portion of the Samsung Solorean‘s body.  Professor Hallock and I were sanding practically nonstop for at least five hours each day.

Friday: Edit the mechanical report to ensure that it has everything NASC headquarters asked for and that it is formatted well.  Yes, this took all day.

Now: Slept in, did some homework, and continuing to study.
