First off, I just want to thank you for visiting my blog today and I hope you had a wonderful new year's celebration. I know that the new year always brings invitations of joy, sadness, and new beginnings as we endeavor to better ourselves through goals and more positive outlooks on the world. This is why I think it should also be a day to look back and reminisce on the good things that have happened to us in 2014 and embrace what makes us happy in the years to come.
That being said, I would like to thank my mentor, Allen Barreno, for taking me under his wing this past July and being such a cool and respectable man. He has guided me through this project since the beginning and has helped me learn so much about not only power engineering, but working with people in the real-world. He made it clear to me how vital it is to do a topic that you're passionate about. Without that piece of advice, I probably wouldn't have the EQ I have today, so I am especially grateful for that.
Allen,
You are one awesomely intelligent fellow. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work at BERG and for all the help you have given me this year with my project. I know you can get quite busy with your work, which is why I am grateful that you have sacrificed some of your valuable time to help me out. I hope you have a very successful and splendid 2015.
Through you, I've gotten to meet and work with some very nice and knowledgeable people who I would like to thank as well.
Hero,
Thank you for being such a generous and hospitable person. When I first arrived at BERG, I usually just arrived, did my normal routine, and then walked home. You were the only person who offered to give me a ride home. I know your house happens to be pretty close to mine, but just reaching out to me was very kind of you and I am grateful for that. I enjoyed our small conversations in the car, as I slowly began learning more about you and your past life. We might have had our twists and turns, but in the end, it was quite a smashing experience.
Jason and Yagi,
Thank you for all the drafting help over these past few months. I have learned so many useful tips and tricks for Microstation and AutoCAD because of you guys, I know that I still have so much to learn, but I'm glad that I have you guys by my side. You two have made me feel really comfortable working at BERG, so for that I am very grateful.
Jason, I think you're a really hard-worker with the way you feel so relieved whenever more work comes your way. You're a really cool cat with a knack for Tekken. I also want to thank you for sharing your lunch with me that one day. I will make sure to return the favor once I find food that delicious again.
Yagi, thanks for sharing some of your architectural drafting expertise with me. It led me in the right direction with my First Floor Plan Project and left me with many questions that I hope to answer as I gain more experience drafting.
AJ,
Thank you so much for answering all of my questions and giving me valuable insight into how college life for an electrical engineering student is. I learned a lot from you about the challenges, work, and experiences I may face as I enter Cal Poly Pomona. I hope to learn more from you as I begin to answer my EQ.

These are not all the reasons why I am thankful to work at my mentorship, but I hope this small post will suffice.
P.S. Thanks for the calendar, you guys! Happy New Year!
