Re: Kick-Off 2010 - Who's Excited And What Is A Skill That You Want To Develop?

I'm really excited. It's senior year for me, and I've been with Team 2503 since its inception.

The last two years I've been responsible for our website, and everything associated with it (pictures, etc). Never got very far with it at all, even though I'm a great web developer. [It's just that when I have to design a website along with building it, the design part catches me up. ]

For this year, I've proclaimed for the last few months that I'll be team captain. I don't have great 'leadership' skills, but I really want to be central to the robot design and construction, and drive team; things I was left out of (at least partly) in the past years. I really want to do design/build team because I kid you not, 99% of the things I suggested last year (things that basically every team included, like belt ball pickup) were shot down by our then senior-topped team, who proceeded to include their radical, over-thought-out features. Needless to say, we ended up in 47th place.

I'm gonna have to watch the kickoff on NASA TV at home because we're not going to the kickoff event. Our coach's aunt passed away recently, and her funeral is tomorrow. A local rookie team is bringing our KOP up to us.

That'll be all.
