Double life

Sometimes I wish I was a writer.  I read my favorite blogs online and think, "What a life!"  Don't get me wrong; I love engineering!  I know you're all  thinking it --I'm a nerd.  But I can deal with that.  It's almost like I live a double life.  Grade-obsessed, problem-solving, calculator-toting engineer by day (or, to be more technical), most of the time, and photo-taking, coffee-loving, artsy blogger by night (or whenever I  can spare a few minutes away from my homework).  Not to be cheesy, but I truly have the best of both worlds.  I get to be the fashionable engineer, one of a few females in all my classes.  As one of my KKY brothers pointed out, I am the girliest engineer they know.  I'll take it!  Hate to disappoint, but I'm NOT going to be the socially-awkward engineer incapable of talking about anything other than equations or optimizations.  I admit that I do relish the moments when my program finally works or my Solidworks drawing suddenly transforms into a curved wrench (oh, yeah).  But I also love seeing my favorite pictures posted to my other blog (lisaswaleofatale.blogspot.com) and reading various fashion blogs that my amazing sister and I have stumbled upon.  So, to blogspot and all my favorite bloggers (Krista included), thank you for giving me a creative outlet!
