Pre-finals week
This was one of the most hectic weeks of the semester. We
had our second 211 exam, for which I spent quite a bit of time studying. We
also had our final presentation for Enmodes, which we spent all week
perfecting. On top of that, we had to prepare for our three finals the
following week.
The second 211 exam went very well, and afterwards, the rest
of the week was devoted to preparing our presentations for Enmodes. Many hours
were put into creating our PowerPoint, solid works pictures, and rehearsing our
presentation. The night before our presentation, our whole program stayed late at
AIB getting the master PowerPoint ready and doing a final run through.
The next morning, dressed in business casual, we arrived in
Aachen ready to shell shock Enmodes. My team was the last group to present, and
I wasn’t feeling nervous until it was our turn to walk up to the front. I was
one of the first people in my group to speak, so I wanted to give Enmodes a
good first impression of our team. I always get a little nervous right before
making a speech, but once I start speaking I actually feel somewhat
comfortable. Our team presented very well, and I was proud of all of our work
on an integrated PCMO debubbler. After the presentations, we enjoyed a lunch
with Enmodes and a quick trip to the city center of Aachen before departing
back to Bonn.
After this busy week, I had another even busier week ahead
of me…finals week. Thus, I spent this weekend studying for my third physiology
exam as well as for some of my finals. I practically lived at AIB and Starbucks.
I've spent a lot of time at Starbucks this semester, so much so that many of
the baristas have started to recognize me…
Anyways, after studying for what seemed like an eternity, it
was time for my last week in Bonn L
