Last Dance With Matt Poese

So in order to reflect on the wonderful experience that has been the source for almost getting me arrested for dressing as a pirate, making some spare cash, and creating this blog I have posted a video on youtube that is a tribute/reflection of ENGR 407. The video of course is a parody of Tom Petty's Last Dance With Maryjane song. I mean not to reference any drugs in this song, it just sort of fit with the title of what I wanted a parody to be.

The inspiration behind the song is of course 407 and I'll admit its a superficial glance at the class with a little humor thrown in to boot as well. It will be revealed tonight in ENGR 407 but is here for those who care for viewing pleasure and ease of finding on the wonderful interwebs.

Tonight is the last class of the semester and for this I am kind of sad. I mean the class on a whole was awesome. The relationships I built and formed with everyone throughout this spring have really grown and I feel like we are all friends now. We all suffered together in the cold state college weather trying to make a buck or two. We all got conned by the judges for our latest project. And we all grew as entrepeneurs throughout this semester.

This is one thing I never thought I would be. I came to this class figuring that my skills lie in sales. I could sell stuff and add glitter and pizaaz to just about anything in a presentation. But I just could never come up with the ideas myself. This semester taught me that you need to search for something that interests you because the best ideas come from the things that you are passionate about.

The wastewater project I did is certainly a reflection of that s it really was a passion of mine. Even the Green DP project inspired me. Overall this class kicked ass and this video represents that.
