Tumblelog

I’ve been thinking about getting a tumblelog because I don’t have much time writing long blog posts but sometimes I really want to share some things. The only downside about getting one is that I don’t have full control over the my domain, because I’ll have to point the domain to the hosting server. The other thing about it is that there is no comment system, so I’m still thinking about whether or not to switch.

So what have I been up to…

  1. Final exams this week. School is out Thursday.
  2. Working on a big project for a client, building everything upon MyBB through the plugin system.
  3. I have a research paper due Wednesday, tomorrow, and I haven’t even started.
  4. Preparing for the Internal robotics Botball tournament.
  5. Upgraded this blog to new version of WordPress.
  6. Finished reading Fast Food Nation. I’m now reading At the Center of the Storm, My Years at the CIA by George Tenet. I love autobiography and nonfiction books like this one.
  7. Lots of summer assignment for next year’s AP World History class.

Catch up later.

Aftermath

It’s been awhile since I updated here, primarily because of my busy school work. Since the last post, I’ve been working almost every hour on programming the robots, and the hard work paid off at the competition. Our team came in fifth overall and received a first place trophy for first place documentation. We also received several other awards including best sportsmanship, best onsite presentation, and double-elimination round finalist. ABC also made a coverage on the regional event.

We plan on moving on to the International Botball Tournament in Hawaii in July. So right now we are busy with mainly two things. Preparing for the Hawaii trip and rebuilding our robots. Our main problem right now is with funds. Going to Hawaii would cost us around $7000 for a group of seven. Right now, we are looking for any sponsors, but we seem to have no luck. Our last resort would have to be getting our hands dirty fund raising ourselves by selling hot dogs or whatever. At the tournament, we saw so many great ideas. In order to win, we must completely redo our strategy.

Besides the busy robotics stuff, I’m also preparing for an AP Chinese exam that’s coming up in two weeks. I haven’t even touched the study material so far. Also, I’m upgrading my Ubuntu machine to Feisty Fawn and I plan on configuring it as a LAMP server so I can get my feet back on web developing. After typing all this, I just realized how busy I am XD .
