Re: Valentine's Day

Spending the night with my girlfriend at Robotics Makes life easier when you're dating someone on the team.

Re: Valentine's Day

I received a lovely flower arrangement (that was delivered to the school) from my wonderful perfect amazing boyfriend who also is the head programmer on the team. <3

Also, robots.
Robots for the next six hours.

Re: Valentine's Day

Posting robot poetry to my girlfriend...and learning why I do robotics and not poetry!

Spending 3 hours in the build room, routine by now.

Also writing love poetry to my robot, but that is fairly normal for me.

Haha I tried that twice when I was student.

But I woke up, took a shower, got ready, ate some food, went to robotics... Spent 6+ hours at robotics and now I am getting ready to skype with my girlfriend before I move onto some SC2, WoW or HoN!

My girlfriend and I celebrated Valentine's Day last Saturday so it is already over for me!

Re: Valentine's Day

I'm listening to the song I want to put on our possible robot video to on repeat to see if I like it while putting the finishing touches on our RCA. (Trust me, sentences in the essay are more well-structured than that last one)

I try to be calm and jokingly take my position of "I'm just the PR guy," at this point in build, then earnestly remount transmissions and wheel assemblies in prep for our belated first runs like a good little worker bee/team captain/senior.

Re: Valentine's Day

Hey Mr. Robot I saw you shooting balls,
It’s why my heart did fall,
I adore your rollers, white and round
I know at this competition I’ll be proud
I like the metal that keeps you strong,
Although that code is sometimes wrong
Forgive my silly poem dedicated to you,
It's the valentine thing, and it’s all true!

that how we spent our time going til the am
