At last the second quarter moon concludes. In this time period so far we have learned more in depth about roles in projects we will begin soon, have taken vital safety tests and communications for not becoming "disposed" in the workshop, and have learned some of the new tools and items to be used in our endeavors. The AutoCAD program was also demonstrated and used during the quarter moon, as grasping the basics was mandatory if we want to do future designs. As an addition, we have obtained two new students. Exciting, to say the least!
I have also received new hardware glasses and show particular zeal in the ear-muffs. Interestingly, they deflect all sound and make everything sound as if it is in a vacuum. Odd indeed, though the astronomer in me is rather giddy about in. Silly, I know.
CAD (Computer Aided Design) class has begun officially as the first quarter moon comes to, paradoxically, a close. Not much progress has occurred in the class minus the rudimentary start-of-term notices and safety guidelines. Such parameters include how the course will work, course aims, safety in the working environments, and the assigning of specialists to particular projects. I am quite looking forward to designing and building the "computer island" as it has been coined. I am in extreme anticipation to begin drawing graphs and and prototypes. I have many ideas for this particular project and cannot emphasize how eager I am to start. Welding will most likely prove mandatory to my list of life skills. I wish to add it.
However, I do not look forward to the garden and hydroponics as much. I spent my whole summer already performing such tasks. I am resentful to it. Time will tell if my mood changes, hm?
