hahaha, st francis fembots are famous for their...eh...let's say their "specialness". I love them tho, what can i say!?

anyways, i told one of the girls we needed more quotes on here, maybe some inside jokes here and there...so yeah, here i am!

- "augh" - christine (when anything happens)
- "SPAM lives" - yeah a big inside joke with the senior captains on the team
- "proceed to the box" - the everyday migration to robotics
- ankle biter (yes the name of the bot this year, just b/c i'm a bad driver and the robot is viscious...oh and one of the motors was out.)
- cheryl's man walk mimicing the animation
- tin looks like a bug in her goggles (check team scrapbook www.sfrobotics.vzz.net..it might be there)

eh, i'll be back later. my brain is certainly fried from robotics and school right now. Please excuse my laziness. Soy muy aburrida y cansada porque tengo mucho tarea y no puedo "concentrate". adios.

lol! hey, you have my word on there! ..."augh" hrm...is that how you spell that? I always though it was just "o". lol oh well...hehe. Oh yeah...our website is www.sfrobotics.com now. hehe..we got a fancy domain name now. Yay!

oh yeah, and here's something that our two craziest people like to say a lot...

"What do you think Thing 1?"
"I dunno, Thing 2. What do you think Thing 2?"
"I think it's snazzy, what do you think Thing 1?"
"I think it's spiffy. What do you think Thing 2?"
"I think it's snazzy. What do you think Thing 1?"
"I think it's spiffy. What do you think Thing 2..."

And it goes on and on and on. Oh yeah, and in case you havent figured it out, Thing 1 and Thing 2 are the nicknames we gave to them.
