Hmm... my first week at MT was pretty awesome. New folks to work with and new things to learn. Awesome! What wasn't awesome was that we were made to present ourselves in front of four random strangers. It wasn't weird considering that I don't know anyone in here, but still nerve wrecking nonetheless. I'm gonna need to learn how to talk to big groups of people without getting stage fright. On the other hand, I'm definitely ready to learn more about the machines that pretty much run our daily lives for us. I'm used to many things but I'm ready to erase what I know and absorb everything I learn.
