Right now I'm feeling pretty freakin awesome.
This morning I wasn't. I read by friend Bryan's post about being stoked about MIT and I started feeling like my choice of grad school wasn't challenging/impressive enough. I started feeling in the pit of my stomach like I'd opted for the easy way out and that I wasn't really pushing myself. I have so much to offer and I was feeling like my choice to go to CU wasn't going to get me where I should be going.
I just spent all morning working out a hefty piece of code that shows how light bounces around inside a telescope and it rocks. I feel like I'm learning cool things and succeeding at them so the earlier feelings of inadequacy and unimportance have subsided and I realized that my experience and contribution to this field is going to be what I make of it, regardless of where I've picked to go to school.
Oh, and I finally got a REALLY cool bag that can hold all of my stuff. Brown leather with brushed gold studs. Tres cute.

About Me
- Katie
- I graduated from BYU with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in April of 2003, and moved out to Colorado to take a great job in the aerospace industry the following June. On June 21, 2007 I married the man of my dreams, the ear doctor. I'm looking forward to starting our life together, and laughing a lot along the way. The point of this blog is to be entertained. It is meant as nothing more than that...entertainment!

You are exactly right. You will get out of grad school what you put into it. (And you can explain how light bounces around inside a telescope? That's cool!) You don't have to go somewhere schmaltzy to get the degree. And that doesn't mean you're not as cool or smart!!! Because Katie you rock. :)
Oooh, pics of the brown leather hotness?
No matter where you get your degree from, you will all end up in the same pond!
No pics....my digit camera is out of commission. You'll just have to be happy with this. When my roommate saw it she said, "wow, that's totally your 'rockstar wife' bag." Cool, huh?!?
