So technically, the anniversary was yesterday, but i was busy all day. I had my first date
Funny. My first date (with a girl mind you) happened EXACTLY one year after i joined this forum.
Neat eh?
Anyways, from when i started to now, I have partaken in so many projects I cannot count them all. In just a year, I can't even remember how many lasers i have built. Going From noob ---> somewhat-well-versed-member was a great journey. I feel confident in my building skills, and i have yet to kill a diode!
The thing is, this hobby saved me. Since middle school, i had been going through phases. Different hobbies that lasted about a month or two. Some times three. I never found anything fun in those hobbies, and then i started lasers. Three months later, i was still going strong! Another three, another three, and then one more.
And here i am today. A considerably knowledgeable member.
It has been a great ride so far, and i hope to stay for years to come.
Thanks guys
