There were so many things that I really enjoyed about Atlanta this year.

1. As usual the creativity and originality of the robots was pretty awesome. No, two robots are Identical. How awesome our minds are.

2. The presentations for the Closing Cereomonies were pretty awesome. Showing these students what they can accomplish if they want to is pretty sweet. But, It's also cool for everyone to see the "toys" that Darpa comes up with. Can anyone get me one of those cockroaches?

3. Dean Kamen's Arm- Completely amazing, makes me think about wanting to be working in the Prostetics part of the Medical world when I become a nurse. We'll see what the future brings. I can't wait to see how that changes the world.

4.Announcers and MCs- Ours on Newton at least were pretty awesome!!!

5. Georgia Dome and Convention Center- Seriously guys where else could we be able to handle everyone at once?

6. Good matches- Yes, I know, a lot of people don't like the way the randomization still occurs, but that said there were still a lot of good matches this weekend.

7. The Finals matches on Einstein- There is nothing better than the finals on Einstein.

8. Taking a group of 10 students (who have never been involved in FIRST before) and having them understand it by the weekend was over!- I had one student tell me Friday night that Friday was the happiest day of his life, and another tell me that next year they're ready to start on the Homework for next year. That says we did something right.

9. Of course, that screen on Einstein was pretty sweet too.

I've lost my train of thought and I need to get caught up on the studying I've missed the past couple of days.
