hmm, after regionals, nothing new. after nationals, well, i have two AP tests, bio and world hist, (like, two weeks after nats), two SAT II's, bio and world hist (one the weekend after nats, oh joy, and one a month later), and then a long time away in june, the NY State regents in Bio, World History, Spanish, and MAth Seq. III. what fun. i can't stand tests, yet i seem to be taking so many this year. oh well.

i'm also planning on doing something else, that's not a test! ever heard of Boston Peak Performance? Well, neither have I (first year for me doing this). Basically, you have to build a small "robot car" that goes ~15 ft, hits a small lip, drops a hackey sack through a hole, and then goes back to the start. winner gets a scholarship to BU. not bad, and with what i learned in FIRST, it should be fun. The only problem, it can only use a total of 2 AA batteries. And you thought the 12 volt batteries we have in FIRST ran out of power fast. should be cool though, just lots of dead batteries all over.

apart from that, i'm not sure what i'm doing. probably interning at BNL this summer, although that's still to be decided. i think i'm also doing my eagle project this summer (boy scouts). hopefully i'm building bird cages at a local (literally, right down the block from my house) nature preserve, as long as they didn't give the project to someone else. i should really get back to them...
