Engineers and Socially Awkward?

Most people when they think of engineers see balding guys in white shirts, pocket protectors, slacks, and glasses. While they may have been at least passable in the past now when you talk about engineers they are normal people who aren't all nerds. Some are athletes, dancers, musicians, and so on and so forth. What brings us to this point of deciding to be engineers is more often then not the challenge and love we have for our field. There are not many people who could deal with the work load to become an engineer if they didn't like the field that they were in. Anyways today is light on words since I need to pack and get ready to leave for school tomorrow. I may or may not post tomorrow, we will see but hey it's almost 2011.
