MMI Week 8

It's been a lot of the same from last week. We're still measuring but we're taking apart a little more to do it. The engines are getting a little more complicated and we're getting frustrated with new parts instead of the old ones. I'm starting to realize I like getting ticked off and pulling my hair out because it just means I'm doing something I haven't done before and it's forcing my brain to work. Don't try and tell me that when I'm in the middle of pulling out my hair though. You might get hit with a wrench.

I'll enjoy this even more, I think, when I don't have to do it with someone else and I can sit there and stare at something for a minute while trying to figure it out and not have to deal with "here lemme do it!". It's nice to have another person to bounce ideas off of but I enjoy trying to figure out something myself a little more.

This is a VERY tedious class with a lot of staring at micrometers. I'm starting to get a headache from doing it 100 times a night but in the end it'll help me learn it and I know that so I suck it up and get to it.

Tonight we start on transmissions. I think. It doesn't matter really. It's still better than towing cars or pulling cables through walls.
