The Life of The Student (IMFSE) Semester 1!

From the life of a project engineer to the life of leisure to the life of a IMFSE student! A small pictorial summary of the goings on this semester (which was not sooooo leisurely):

In all it's glory!


The group:


Snowball fight!


Chocolate muffins give you super thinking power. So do Mars bars (try at least 3 a week!). Deep Fried Mars Bar anyone? The great thing about being a student again: You can have ridiculous facial hair and don't have to meet company codes!


Studying hard in the lecture hall for Philosophy of Structures Tutorial Session:


Me, Hooi, Claudia on our way to class:


Professor Rotter, the world's Shell Structure expert! (And quite an entertaining teacher).


Preparations for the queen and Papal visit to Edinburgh:


Side trip to Pitlochry for some Highland Games:


Scotland vs. New Zealand Rugby game. With our super Scottish landlord George, Eduardo, and visiting friends.


Many a full scottish breakfasts were consumed:


Becoming a professional fiddler instantly at FiddleFest 2010:


Brecht, Karliss & Eduardo at a pub!


The fire research facilities:


With Netsanet & Woody, fire dynamics tutor, PHD candidate. Many a nice discussions on fire were had. Thanks Woody!


The happiest Ethiopian guy in the world! Netsanet enjoys his first snow ever!


Picnic on Arthurs Seat:


Me at my favorite Scottish dance, the Celidh! (Not the guy in the Kilt!)


Studying hard, or hardly studying? I think studying hard. Finite Element Method.


Climbing Arthurs Seat with Brecht before classes began:


Lothian Buses:


Local Pub, John Leslies:


Can you see me?


You get $100 if you can name this guy (and you don't live in Edinburgh!)


Foods for our international foods party:

  2. Well, now that you ask Jose, I guess I'll have to unleash the hidden fury of FSFD complaints! Just kidding, really enjoyed the class! Looking forward to more in Lund!
