Speaking of building things, I have been sending emails nonstop today regarding robotics. Not exactly non-stop, but I have a tendency to write labor-intensive emails. Hyper-linked, informative, spell/grammar-checked, worthwhile, and occasionally colorful: I pull out all the stops because I've figured out that details and presentation matters. I was recently appointed CEO of FIRST Team 1671, a First Robotics team of around 50 members, and the first batch of weekly summer lessons and training start on Thursday. Thing is, my flight leaves Thursday night and I'll be gone...for 6 weeks, so I'm pretty much scrambling all over the place. We have a record number of new members and I have almost no clue what to do with them all. Thankfully, I have a great leadership team with a tremendous amount of ability and potential, and I can confidently let them hold the fort for a little while.
For now, it's time for last minute packing and reviewing for the diagnostic tests in Calculus, Physics, Biology, and Chemistry; thinking about talent show acts; catching up on sleep (school was out last Friday and I have a red eye to Boston); procrastinating; CADding; learning Java with my Head First Java book; playing tennis; managing robotics business; and spending time with friends and family before I leave.
I can handle that in three days.... right?
