Through the ringer and not done yet

I don't think i've had a good night sleep in about 4 weeks now and i'm pretty sure i've gained 5 pounds since then too. It is my teams rookie year in first this year and it has been fun but if i look back i think i could save myself a ton of headaches. With four computer science teachers, two mentors and four high schools for the team to draw on i thought this would be a lot easier.

A week into the build season my teams leadership collapsed. I was sub leader of mechanics but seeing as i was one of the only people in any leadership position showing up to the meetings i was thrown into a role i wasn't prepared for. I took over nearly all leadership duties in my team and have been trying to turn things around. This weekend we got the robot to run wireless and have been switching our focus to the minibot and manipulator. Now if i can just finish building that practice field.

How has everyone else's rookie or 2011 year been going so far?
