I can't believe it...

So, it is almost the end of the first half of the Spring semester. Boy is it moving a LOT faster than the Fall. I feel that we are just getting started on a lot of the different projects that I am working on, and in some cases we are just getting started, and then after next week is Sloan Innovation Period (SIP) and then Spring Break! LFM's aren't required to stick around for SIP so Alicia and I are heading off to Beijing to sightsee for a week before I head off to Hong Kong and then on to Shanghai to meet up with the LFM International Plant Trek (which includes a trip to Japan to visit a Toyota facility!). Unfortunately, significant others (SO's) aren't allowed to go on any of the plant tours so it didn't make sense for Alicia to stick around for the following week. We are very excited about our upcoming trip though I will post more on that later.

The internship matchings finally came through last week. I will be spending the Summer/Fall working for Pratt & Whitney in East Hartford, CT. I'll have to see what I can post about the internship once I get in touch with them about the assignment. With the non-disclosure agreements, I am assuming that I won't be able to post too much, but I may be able to post about some of the trips that I will end up taking to Russia, China, India and possibly Mexico. We'll see though.

More later...
