Okay, a few of you guys already know this, but I need to toot my own horn. Really loud.

OH MY GOSH! I'M GOING TO WORLD ROBOTICS COMPETITION!

*hem* That is not all. No, no. I must tell you all about the competition.

You see, I'm a nerd (and proud. Woot!). A robotics competition is just about the only place where I can tell people I can speak a little Orcish without being told, "Get a life." Also it's the only place I can think of where a person can say, "I don't want to wear somebody else's ears!"

Let me explain. You see, our team is Lord of the Rings themed, and four of us are hobbits and one of us is an elf. We have to re-wear the ear tips because it was a two day competition and one of us was concerned that he would wear somebody else's ears.

Next on the list of awesome. I'm getting interviewed by three VIPs! The local newspaper, the rotary club, and a very popular local magazine!

... yes. I do have standards that low.

I'm the only girl on a nine-person robotics team. Which does not suck at all. Girls bore me half the time, guys know how to have fun. (i.e. dancing Gangam Style randomly in the middle of math class before the competition. That was awesome. All the girls I know are too chicken.)

This is the best thing to happen in my life. Well, that and the fact I met a pegasister at another competition wearing a Twilihght Sparkle hoodie.
