First off, an apology for the lateness of my recent posts. I've been really busy in my internship. Just the other day, I worked my required hours for school purposes and then continued into the night for a total of 13 hours of work time. I've also ended up coming home and passing out a lot of the days. 
Today I realized that my spanish skills I've learned in spanish class have helped me because members of Makers Place sometimes bring in folks help and a few of them were spanish speakers so it was fun to make small conversation with them and it was a good feeling to know that all the spanish I learned stayed in my brain. 
As I continue to install more fans for the summertime, I am getting continuously better with electric work. I have figured out ways to maneuver the wires with out touching the possibly live material. One of the boxes that I had to splice into had a really wonky setup and we couldn't figure out where to turn off the power for it so I had to work under extreme caution. Today I will develop a new skill also. After my work hours I am going to take a class on using CorelDraw, a software used in CNC and Laser cutting machines. Tomorrow I am also taking a laser engraving class so that i can add designs to my major project, which you can find pictures of in my photo section.

What has been the most valuable skill you've learned from High Teach that you've applied to your internship?
