    I'm a 34-year-old freshman doing undergraduate research. Yeah, it's weird

    My professor asked if anyone wanted to help with her research project on construction worker safety. I laughed out loud. In class. Because I've been in construction for 15 years. I AM the research subject. She didn't laugh. She said "perfect, you're hired." So now I'm a 34-year-old freshman...

    To the 18-year-old at GSU who looks scared: I was you 16 years ago. It gets better

    Saw a kid in the library today. First semester, probably. Had that look I remember. The "I have no idea what I'm doing and everyone else seems to know" look.

    My capstone team has a "design by committee" problem and nothing is getting done

    Engineering capstone. We're building a prototype for a assistive device. Simple concept. Good cause. Terrible team dynamics. 😑 We have 5 people. 5 opinions. Every decision turns into a 2-hour debate about "what if we tried..." and "maybe we should consider..." and "has anyone thought about..."...

    Writing a restaurant review for class and the owner kept refilling my water. Now I feel biased

    Had to write a review of a local restaurant for my hospitality class. Went to this small family-owned place. Food was... fine. Not amazing, not terrible. Solidly average. 🍝 But the owner kept coming by. Refilling water. Asking how everything was. Smiling. Being so genuinely nice that by the end...
