    cheer

    (this was such a part of my college experience that one of my roomates was nicknamed lizard shit or lizard for short)

     

    Beer

    This is the high school fight song I remember. It was not a dull time.

     

    Beer, beer for old Lafayette High

    Bring on the whiskey, bring on the rye

    Send those freshmen out for beer

    And don’t another junior near

    Just a quick update -

    college is going well. Engineering is hard but I'm maintaining good grades in all my classes. I'm going to shoot for Aerospace when I choose my major at the end of this year (If I can't get in, I will try Mechanical, and I can still get into aerospace industry with a ME degree)  Sometimes I really miss California's weather xD but can't complain haha. 

    Looking back I believe that I made the right choice, and thanks to everyone who pushed me. I think right now I'm learning something meaningful, and will do something meaningful in the future. 

    About skydiving... well, I still think about it and my past experiences from time to time, but not as much as before. After my accident I always had that urge of 'immediately' getting back to it but now that has decreased a lot. I will jump again when I'm fully ready after a few years.

    Blue Skies and stay safe out there

    Hey David -

    Thanks for the update. We've all been patiently waiting for your report.

    Congratulations on persisting through a tough major. Perseverance is a highly sought after trait in new grads. Keep it up. 

    Also, you don't take the easy road do you. Aerospace is tough but I know you can do it. Mechanical is a great back up. With that said, welcome to adulthood. You have a plan and an alternate path. Both well thought out and both would lead you to your ultimate goal: working in the aerospace industry.

    Here's something else you exhibited: a good foundation for leadership. Doers do. Leaders ask and listen. You asked, listened, digested the information and made what is an excellent decision.

    Keep it up. Keep us informed.

    Blue skies (they are always there, even above the rain clouds).
