I just realized...
This time tomorrow we're gonna be in Auburn!
Is it really 1am?? You're joking!
So here I am, trying to finish this scrapbook. *sigh* Its not as if its hard or even as if it takes a long time. There are just other things that I'd rather be doing at one am. Sleeping isnt one of them.

BEST 2009 Kick-off
On September 19, BEST 2009 kicked-off at the Raspet Flight Research Lab at Mississippi State University, there we were informed on the aspects of the challenge ahead. The challenge set before us this year is to build a robot that is able to configure the "basic elements" according to one of the formulas given the Kick-off.
Team Building Exercises
Before their meeting on October 24, the SCHE Team Eclipse spent some time working on teamwork and communication. They had to try to make a perfect square with eight people, the catch, they were all blindfolded. Very interesting. The exercise was meant to help develop an understanding of the importance of leadership in difficult situations, communication, and teamwork. The team realized that they couldn't all do the same thing, such as take a step to the west, so they had to figure out how to work out the kinks and make the square.
