This image is of a program that is used quite often when working with a field in architecture or engineering called Autocad. It has many different features to it to help you draw a figure or a house like in the picture. This imagine changed my mind for what I want to do with my career and made me think that I wanted to do something different. I changed my mind so much because I was good at working with this program that I thought I was getting bored of it. I wasn't. I took a drafting class in high school and my teachers didn't really do jack squat. They always sat back and told us to draw something. They never gave background information about anything. Until my senior year when someone actually tried. His efforts didn't last very long. Anyway, it always fascinated me to realize what I was designing. I was making a house! That someone could live in eventually. It made me feel like I was doing something for someone. Well, I came to realize that there's not a whole lot of different options in architecture. I had always heard people talking about civil engineering and decided to look into it and realized that it's basically what architects do but they get more options as to what they can do. So I decided to pursue engineering.

  1. Remind me to share with you a document I have about instruction manuals for AutoCad. It may be something that you will find useful when you take the tech comm for engineers class in the future.

  2. That is very interesting! Maybe one day you will be able to create and design your own house!
