Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?

[Dusk Eclipse]

But designing is building! It's building WITH YOUR MIND! You can take a piece of paper and a pencil, and with nothing else but your own intelligence, you can construct a virtual device in the imagination of whoever looks at your design. The only thing left to do after that is to transfer that idea to reality.

Storytelling is also like building - you construct an entire world, an entire universe with people that have motivations and emotions, all in the minds of whoever is listening to you or reading your story. I guess this is why both engineering and writing appeal so much to me.

I agree with you on principle; but I think Jade Dragon and I meant building physical things.
