Doing FSAE this year has reinforced my love of engineering. I sort of wish I had started earlier, but it was a lot of work and everyone who is dedicated to the team ends up with a terrible GPA because they blow off classes. But I have learned so much more this year than in my classes. Actually trying to build the crazy crap I come up with has improved my design skills a lot.
The hours are usually very long, but I find that if I am away for more than a couple days I don't know what to do with myself. I need a big project like that. I like the feeling of accomplishment. It is nice to take a break and go hiking or biking on the weekends, though.
