<p>Thank you, thank you, guys for the encouraging words. I now better understand the need to pull myself through these classes and even embrace them because they are essential for my future. I will remember this, and even save them for those rough times. Really, thank you. </p>
<p>As far as a mentor, I don’t really have one. I do have an upperclassmen engineering student who helped me last year because we had classes together all year long. I also have a professor who I could perhaps turn to, but not for engineering. This professor really catered to the “arts side” and he’s seen some of my works through his classes. I think my advisor next year will be the closest I can get to specialized career advising and such. As for a support system, I do have a close group of friends who I am able to lean on. One of them is also in engineering, but we don’t have any classes together due to different interests and engineering disciplines. </p>

Even if my work is rudimentary, I would still be excited to see the senior engineers’ work. To even be in the environment they work in, see some of the work they are presented with, and look at the end results would be completely awesome…even if I had no hand in it.
