I'm Sad...

1. Breath a sigh of relief and sorrow because it's done and gone.
2. Think about what to do for 4 hours after school.
3. Think about what to do on Saturdays.
4. Probably spend times with friends on said Saturdays.
5. Realize that there are loads and loads of projects to be done on said Saturdays due the week before the Sacramento Regional.*

HaHa! You thought I was going to say sleep, but I still don't sleep no matter what. $@#$@#$@#$@# homework *grumbles*

*Note to self: do homework and projects before going places with friends... is any place actually OPEN at 4 in the morning?

Wow. All of you are so lucky. For us, there's still so much to do.
1. Plan competition strategy
2. Continue scouting
3. Recruiting
4. Fundraising
5. Team T-shirts
Robotics never ends. Just because we don't have a special team to work on this stuff by themselves, everyone gets to do it.

humm....

Well...

1. Sleep (this is a given)
2. Talk to my friends not in robotics (they are all angry b/c I have been so aloof recently)
3. Get back to school work (grades are good, but actually studying would be less stressful)
4. Keep going to the gym (Its amazing what all that food from the parent support group will do.....)
5. Prep. for the Arizona Regional (and continue to dream about robots)

I loved it all, but now that its over......I feel relieved!
