You're probably wondering what this is about. Well besides being very happy right now, the past few days I've been attending a robotics competition called the F.I.R.S.T.  (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Competition. For the last couple of days we were kicking ass and today my team won the regional championship. So now my team and I are going to Texas next week for the nationals...WOHOO!

I'm back from Texas.  The competition went pretty well, our alliance got 2nd place overall, but I'm pretty sure we woulda won the whole thing if our breaker switch didn't trip and if our partner had put in a charged battery GRRR!!! But it was fun anyways even if my team didn't win.

You guys can watch the robot compete on the NASA webcast. My team was in the Curie division and Championship event. Look for team 25.

You didn't happen to go against or ally with 35 did you? They were in your division with a robot named Athena. It's my school's team.
