Cosmos Recap

Cosmos was fantastic. In every way, the program was extremely beneficial to my knowledge about college and my future career choice. I feel like I have a much better understanding about college life and the life of an engineer, and thanks to Cosmos I am looking forward to both. The month I spent at UCSD is something I will never forget. The people were amazing. Everyone from the proffessors and teacher fellows to the R.A's and the students themselves made the experience at Cosmos wonderful. I couldn't have imagined a better way to spend my summer than at UCSD learning about engineering design. It's an amazing feel to know what I want to major in and knowing what engineering will actually be like when i get to college and beyond. Not many kids my age have a clue about what they want to do in college, but I have been blessed with uniwue knowledge about my chosen field. Thanks to everyone who made this past month possible, it was awesome. Cluster 2 and others, I will miss you all very much. I hope you all achieve wonderful things with your lives.

August 2

Goodbye, COSMOS and the beautiful people who made it so great. I am writing this final blog from home, where I am happy to be yet so sad. I think I have tasted what people refer to as "bittersweet". It is wonderful to be home with my family and dog, but I miss my suite, my floor, my RAs, my roommate, my friends, my teacher fellow, my professors, and UCSD. I know the biggest I have learned about colleges is that the people are the most prominent features of the school. It has been the best of times and the hardest place to leave.
