After talking with Georgia for last time (yesterday) I was extremely dissapointed and depressed for many reasons, but I decided to stay. It is sure an experience but I thing that it could be ten times better with more organization. If I haven't my classmates with me I don't know what would happen. Never mind. Yesterday I decided to stand up and start designing the 3D cad for the trencher even if it wasn't what I expected. I used all the knowledge I gained on my own from Greece and I started the project. I did the design of the motor, the base and the axis with Creo Elements where Nassos helped me a lot by measuring some parts and Theo with Big George designed the trencher's head with google Sketchup. The designs untill now are very good. Generally I feel that we are starting now to be productive and do in a way what I came here for. I am very optimistic about the trencher and I believe that in three days we can make it work, not very effectively but good enough for a prototype. I want to build it and show it to everybody. Just to say that I was creative. I have been working on it the last two days and I spend many hours in front of my computer and I feel really good about it. It needs a lot of work, patience and observation. I also feel nice about the fact that Marcin participates in this project even for half an hour per day. This really encourages me and if we finish the trencher project early I would be really glad of building more stuff. I also studied for SAT physics these days and I keep walking... as for the TOEFL, I don't know but I don't feel like studying for it with all these people around me, I just can't concentrate. | After talking with Georgia for last time (yesterday) I was extremely dissapointed and depressed for many reasons, but I decided to stay.

After all this attempt for so long I just wanted to leave and at that point things became better but I was really tired and knowing how many things I could do in Greece all this period I just wanted to go back. Then I thought about it and I said that since I came here I should be productive in this opportunity and spend even the last days efficiently. I am not sure yet about if it worths for me to stay, but I want to be sure that I made the best I could. Walking in the dark... We will see in the end. :/ | The previous days I was very frustrated and I couldn't stand this place more.

George! Congratulations!
My first interaction with Wiki (24/7/2012)
After talking with Georgia for last time (yesterday) I was extremely dissapointed and depressed for many reasons, but I decided to stay. It is sure an experience but I thing that it could be ten times better with more organization. If I haven't my classmates with me I don't know what would happen. Never mind. Yesterday I decided to stand up and start designing the 3D cad for the trencher even if it wasn't what I expected. I used all the knowledge I gained on my own from Greece and I started the project. I did the design of the motor, the base and the axis with Creo Elements where Nassos helped me a lot by measuring some parts and Theo with Big George designed the trencher's head with google Sketchup. The designs untill now are very good. Generally I feel that we are starting now to be productive and do in a way what I came here for. I am very optimistic about the trencher and I believe that in three days we can make it work, not very effectively but good enough for a prototype. I want to build it and show it to everybody. Just to say that I was creative. I have been working on it the last two days and I spend many hours in front of my computer and I feel really good about it. It needs a lot of work, patience and observation. I also feel nice about the fact that Marcin participates in this project even for half an hour per day. This really encourages me and if we finish the trencher project early I would be really glad of building more stuff. I also studied for SAT physics these days and I keep walking... as for the TOEFL, I don't know but I don't feel like studying for it with all these people around me, I just can't concentrate.
The previous days I was very frustrated and I couldn't stand this place more.
