Robotics Camp!!!

Several weeks ago and today,(two different days) I went to a robotics camp at Lawrence Technological University for this organization called Robofest. Robofest is where you can build and program your own robot and showcase it at any Robofest competition as long as you qualify. For more information, go on google and type in "Robofest" or visit Robofest.net. The thing is that I didn't go for a competition, I went for the camp that they were holding there. It was a one-day robotics camp where you could build and program a Sumo robot(a robot that fights) and showcase it at an official class tournament. I had a great time, although me and my teammate did not win. I loved the award ceremony with all of the medals handed out with a trophy going to the winners!

A "Snake's" Summer

If you didn't know I was born in 2001. What's so important about 2001, you may be asking? Well, it's the year of the snake in the Chinese Zodiac. Everyone's birth year is important because it is special. The Chinese Zodiac is awesome because it gives details about what one's life will most probably be like. 2013, by the way, is the year of the snake, and that is my Chinese Zodiac sign. The Chinese are truly right. I am having a great summer, and this year so far has been great! I hope that all the "Snakes" out there are having a great summer, and I equally hope that the other signs are enjoying their summer also! If you don't know your sign, I understand. Just go on google, and type "Chinese Zodiac" and they will tell you all about your sign as long as you know when you were born!
