August.24

Oh! Goodness. School has started again. It seems that it was only yesturday that it was vacation; well, three days ago I guess. It was only four weeks ago that I was imprisoned inside a rat infested, faucet leaking, prison called Peabody Hall at Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I remember ever corner and floor tile of that dorm. It was horrible. Glad to be free and, somewhat, glad to be back at school and aspiring for the upcoming FIRST Robotics season.

I am not exactly sure what it is that I want for this season. Clueless. Aimless. Oh! God. Hopefully that isn't how I am going to be for long. I would hate for it to be January and then I am still lost without direction.

Today was spent brainstorming. Again. I have spent all year brainstorming for this season. It is time to make it happen, really. Daniela Morales has been gone. Hue Le off at Harvard. Christopher Khavarian away in his new Stanford home. And my lovely dearest Angelina Saldivar away in a strange distant place called Amherst College over there on the East Coast. I am going to do my best to come up with innovative ideas.

This is not just for me. It is for everyone. Innovation is bigger than myself; Chairman's is life. It is EVERYTHING. Goodness. I love it. Robotics.
