This summer was the best summer I have ever had!!! Right
after my last final of the semester, I jumped on the plane and went back to
Taiwan with one of my really close friends who was going abroad for
the first time. For two weeks, we travelled around the country and visited
family and friends. I showed her the places where I lived and
played in my childhood and we also went on to explore new places. After she
came back to Berkeley for summer school, I did research at the Institute of
Applied Mechanics in National Taiwan University as part of the Taiwan Tech Trek
program and had the time of my life!!! I observed a liquid droplet as it comes
into contact with a liquid surface through a high speed camera, which made
the observation of the phenomenon of liquid droplet cascade that lasts only
about 0.2 second seem like a piece of cake. After taking pictures and
videos, I analyzed the data using Matlab. During the 8-week program, I grew
really close to the people in my lab and also other TTT interns. We hung out a
lot after work and I know we will keep in touch for a very long time. Other than
the 2-week trip and the internship, I met up with friends in Taiwan
who I've known for years and got to catch up with many stories of
our lives. I also spent a lot of time with my family. It was so awesome!!! The
only bad thing I can say about this summer is that it is too
short!!! |
