Hello!

So writing this blog is probably going to be a bad idea; not least because it's currently 01:18 in the morning and I still have 424 words to write on a lab report due at 16:00 tomorrow. But I'm bored of that and desperately need a massive procrastination technique. What better than doing something completely out of my comfort zone and writing a blog.
A bit about me:
I am a 2nd year undergraduate at Imperial College London and am believe it or not studying aeronautical engineering at the same time as doing probably way to many clubs and societies and way too much socializing. But what is the point of university otherwise? And my blog is going to be about cool things that happen in my life and some not so cool things as well and maybe some opinions as well!
Today counts as a cool day (at least some of it does). As part of 2nd year we have to perform an "applications" project to test our knowledge and design a wind turbine. Today tested it it the massive 6 foot working section wind tunnel! And much to my surprise (I don't know why I doubt myself so much) it worked really well even though the design was "funky"!

Me Holding Said Wind Turbine
And that's basically where the excitement for today ends! I spent the rest of the day working, careers workshopping, and realizing how much work I actually have to do between now and then end of term . And now I really must return to my lab report or else I will die of tiredness.
