Long time no see. I’ve returned from Taiwan! I’m still in the process of getting everything back in order including some RSBANDB stuff, school stuff, and lots of email.
First off, sorry about the pictures XD. I couldn’t get them uploaded for some weird reason, but here are the official ones not taken by me. Please also do take a look at this video. It’s awesome.
Now I need to actually start on my AP assignments, which are due in two days. It also sucks to not have your new schedule because your out on vacation… grr…

I just got here into Taiwan after flying back from Hawaii last Saturday. It’s really humid
My team had pretty bad luck during the competition. During the double-elimination rounds (two loses and you’re out), one of our motors broken in the first round, so obviously we lost. After that round we took it to get it fixed. While we were fixing it, we were called up again to compete. So yea, it sucked.
However, the conference itself was fun. Got to meet smart people and Hawaii was fun. I’ll be posting some pictures later.

Yup that’s right. I’m going to Hawaii this Saturday for eight days. As you guys all know, I’m going there for the International Botball Tournament. Right now I’m cranking out the rest of the two days, trying to program robots. I am not even closed to finishing though
.
I’m pretty sure I won’t win the giant trophy, but hey, it’ll be fun sunbathing tomorrow, hehe.
After the eight days, I’m going to board another plane yet again to Taiwan. I’ll catch up then. See you all.

I know it’s been a long time since I updated. After the all the robotics competition, I just had a lot of projects and the AP Chinese exam to handle. So far, I have two final projects left and I’ve already took the AP Chinese exam. The exam was great (never thought I would say that), I’m pretty sure I’ll score a five. As for the projects, I have a very idiotic Spanish project which involves tons of “summary pages” and essays — not fun. The other project is for my Physics class. I’ll be making a mousetrap car. I already have some ideas, but I just need to stop procrastinating.
I wanted to post about this last week but didn’t have time. I got a new mouse! I got the Logitech MX Revolution. 55 bucks but it’s well worth the money. Now my fingers don’t hurt when I click. I also love the configurations I can do with it.The only thing that sucks is the battery power. There’s no sleep mode either, so I always have to remember to turn it off.
Meanwhile, I’m still planning for the summer plans including the July Hawaii trip. Since I’m part of a “team”, I’m suppose to work with a bunch of pain in the butt parents and hypocritical team members. These people are the stupidest hypocrites ever…
Anyways, other than the usual school work, I’ve been doing some labor for Shane and MQ. It’s also ants season here so after this I’m going to go kill some ants!
