Ship Day is Upon Us

6 weeks have passed, all to quickly…The clock has rung, the gauntlet fallen. Time to stick those contraptions in crates and call the Fed-Ex man. We are ready; We are prepared…As of tonight, all systems are operational. We have the bot crated and a pickup scheduled.

What is your status? Have you crated it? Does everything work? What is your strategy? What are you doing for auton mode? Are you already planning ways to improve it at regionals? Do you need more time?

As fun as FIRST is, I sure am glad that it is over. Time to recuperate. Time to sleep. Time to get ready for the competition. I can’t wait for nationals, they are just 3 short hours away from my house. Texas looks forward to hosting FIRST. The site chosen couldn’t’t have been better, it is big, the 9th wonder of the world as some call it. The world famous Astrodome and it’s sister stadium. You won’t be disappointed.

Anyway, good luck to all…May you ship on time and may you all do well at competition. I look forward to meeting y’all there.

We still have an hour and a half left until ship day, but the @#%$*! school wouldn’t let us work past 6:00 PM

my school kicked us out at 7:00, which they do only when the janitors leave… but the janitors stayed because of some adult SAT school class (school janitors have to be in when people are in the school)

why’d we have to leave? the robot, must go work on robot, need to work, AHHHH!!!

hah

the Fedex guy is supposed to be here anytime now (1000 EST) to take her away

BTW - where were you this morning Scooter? :smiley:

I can’t wait to sleep and see the sun again (if this rain ever clears off)
