Introduction to a First-Time Blogger

Hello, I am a senior chemical engineer major here at the University of Oklahoma and the coolest thing about the chemical engineering field is the versatility of the major. You can go into many different fields such as the oil and gas industry or any chemical industry. For instant, my capstone is designing a potato chip plant that will make one million pounds of potato chips each year. We have to do everything from finding the land to build it on to distributing the bags of chips to our customers.

This break was quite exciting. I went to San Antonio for a party the first weekend after finals and then traveled out to Los Angeles for New Years as well as the Rose Bowl. The ending of the Rose Bowl was not what I wanted, but it still was a great game and awesome trip. The week after that I went to Vail, Colorado and stayed at one of my friends house and skied for 4 days. There wasn't much snow except for the last day where it snowed 15 inches on us as we skied. And I drove to all these places spending over 75 hours in the car and driving over 5,000 miles. Here is a picture I took of my friend's dog that went on the trip to Vail with us. Her name is Harper and she loves playing in the snow with brother, Francie, that is not pictured.

I enjoy watching tennis and I try to play with a couple of my buddies whenever the weather is a bit warmer. I also like watching football and basketball and try to go to every OU home game for both sports. I am also trying to attend as many away OU basketball games I can this semester since I am graduating in May and won't be able to travel as much since I will be working.
