Yikes!

I am holding a peer review tomorrow at work. It's basically a bunch of software head honchos sitting around at a meeting reviewing/analyzing/criticizing the code that I implemented for the test. I've spent almost the whole week preparing for this review because I was informed on Monday by the person in charge of overseeing the test that I needed to hold a peer review. Then it was a mad scramble to send meeting notices and compile all my code into a package to send to "important" people to review before hand. Why do I need to do this? Because it's a government contracted project and they require all these regulations and procedures. So my manager has been sending various people to prep me for the peer review...LOL. I've been told that it can get brutal, so hopefully they will take into account that I'm an intern. I don't believe that an intern should be holding her own peer review.

So they hold various tours of some of the projects at the Sunnyvale facility for the interns throughout the summer. I mentioned the Advanced Technology Lab in an earlier post. A few weeks ago, I was able to take a tour to see the D5 Trident Missile, which happens to also be the project I'm working on. They had a full-scale mock-up of the missile. Today, I went on a tour of the solar arrays, which are panels powered by the sun that provide power to the majority of the things out in space. Lockheed makes solar arrays for the International Space Station, military and commercial satellites, space telescopes, and whatever other objects we put into space. As cool as it was to see, I don't want to work on the solar arrays. Seems too boring.
