OK, I think I have finally crossed the line into being an "enginerd". I realised today that I was excited about getting data from the composite materials lab on Thursday. We had fabricated a flate plate and cut it into coupons that we flexed/pulled and got load vs. displacement row data. I actually enjoyed cleaning up the data and plotting it every which way. It is thereputic to be doing something for an important class and the work is stuff I can actually do easily.

I still like the hard problems- more of a feeling of accomplishment from them. But there is something so relaxing about taking an excel file full of raw data and making nice graphs out of the jumble of numbers and showing the point you were making.
