Capstone, coffee, and the projects that ate us

By the time year four rolled around, every conversation had a project title attached to it. "How's your project going?" replaced "how are you?" for an entire semester.

Some of us built greenhouses. Some of us built apps. One of us built a system to track hospital queues that actually works. We argued with our supervisors, ran our prototypes late at night in empty labs, and slowly turned ideas into something we could actually defend.

Now we're at the edge of the defense. Wish us luck.
