So I've Been a Little MIA Lately...

[Pwnin O'Brien]

Hey guys, so I know that I've been pretty MIA here lately and I apologize. Here's a little backstory: I took a year off of school (Fall '09 and Spring '10) and decided to get a corporate desk job at a large wireless carrier. I quit that job and three days later drove back to school to finish my degree in Computer Engineering at West Virginia University. Since I have been back I have been overwhelmed with just about everything; I enrolled in classes, one of which is senior design (which I'll talk about below). I also acquired a full-time job so I could have some spending money while at school. In the meantime I've been trying to find suitable housing while my friend lets me stay at her house.

Now, senior design is a course in which you spend two consecutive semesters designing and building a large project. The project my group is designing and building is a solar vehicle. We decided to bring a solar car program to West Virginia University for the first time ever and it's proving to be a bit more difficult then we first thought. The senior design project is consuming approximately 40 hours a week of my time so on top of my other courses and work I barely get any time to myself. While my post frequency has been significantly lower I am still on NICO on a daily basis. I am always lurking around the Pathy/QX4 forum reading the posts and replying to some.

If you guys have any questions or concerns about the forum please let me know, I have my email pushed to my phone and my phone is always on me so I usually respond within minutes. I recommend emailing me instead of PMing me since I can respond to emails on my phone.

2nd that.
I know it's time consuming, but a running update, with some pics, of your build would be awesome.
