Busy busy busy - Post #250

Wow, so, I've been kind of INSANELY busy for a while. Let's see...

Robotics is really going well. Last year I was stuck painting the robot's crate, but this year I've built the control board, built and helped wire the electronics panel, and soldered. =) Not to mention drilled a billion holes, used the lathes, made metal waves on a stone grinder, cut everything... It's been a much more eventful season than last year, and it's not even close to over yet. Thirteen days until our first scrimmage!!

What else has been going on... We went to the annual Mardi Gras party at Shawn's church again this year. It was amazing. A bunch of us went dressed up as the Spice Girls, as you can see above. Veronica was Scary Spice in a giant afro wig, Bri was Baby Spice in pigtails and pink, I was Ginger Spice in a red dress and wicked curls, Jess was Posh Spice in black and a pout, Rachel was Sporty Spice in a high ponytail and bright green pants, and Jackie was the manager in a shiny gold dress and jeans.

Shawn's dad is a great DJ. He not only has some hilarious remixes (Jump On It + Who Let the Dogs Out + Last Dance = amazingly funny), but he also randomly starts dancing, which is pretty great.

Other than that, there hasn't been too much to write about. Life's been busy, but pretty repetitive. School is busy but monotonous, chem is chaotic and challenging, and more often than not we're too pressured with studying to find time to hang out. It's pretty awful.

On the other hand, I really really want to make a music video. It's been ages. So I'll probably try and figure something out for that soon. =)

Until then, I'm off to avoid football. Night. =)
