Field Trip

Well, I do appologize for the lateness of this post, but tomorrow is a HUGE day for the girls of the Shazbots; we were invited to visit Lockheed Martin! I don't think we're allowed to take videos or pictures, but I'll post afterward and let you all know how it goes! ~R.C.

2/18/12: The Last Stretch

Hey. I'm bloggin' away again.

Our wonderful robot is just about done (an accomplishment!)
We are finally ready to move all of our field prop stuff to the practice field and test!
Driver practice here we come...

2/15/12; Mediocris...

Bah. Nothing interesting to report here.

Well, we have a working robot. Okay, the above title is undeserved.

Five Interesting Things Happening Right Now
  1. We have a robot which works. That is definetly a plus. (especially when shipping is only 6 days away)
  2. I'm listening to Monkey Magic by Godiego (originally) and Soko (remix) and Switchback by Celldweller and it's completely random, so... XD
  3. Lunch is really soon
  4. I'm balancing blogging with mechanical, that's kind of fun (not really)
  5. And I'm typing...on my computer...and people are congregating around the robot and programmers, in eager anticipation for lunch (which I didn't sign up for, so I'll be last in line. :P like I'm ever not last in line, no matter what happens...)...and there's drilling...going on behind me in the shop.

Ok, nothing that exciting is hapenning right now. But whatevs. I could probably think of something interesting to post about if I tried. Let's see...

What the hammer,
What the chain,
In the furnace was thy brain?
