Oh, hello entire MSSM. |
Gave our group a tour of the lab I work in and found out that almost no one knows anything about brushless motors. Actually generally lacking some electrical knowledge but I guess that is to be expected. Also a bunch of freshmen, apparently there are 20 freshmen there now.... eeeeks! Anyways, I did have a couple of good groups of kids that asked good questions and stuff. Met the new physics teacher who was the man and was totally into my tour, asked awesome questions and made star wars jokes. Solid dude.
Also totally introduced myself to a large group and asked them vote for Pika in the Launchpad competition. They were all on board and enthusiast about voting and talking to another MSSMer. One discussion went something like this.
Excited MSSM kid "What year did you graduate?"
Me: "Class of 2009."
Excited MSSM kid: "Wait, so were you there when the McCartney bot was there?
Me: "..... Bitch*, I built the McCartney bot, it's in pieces in my attic."
*Note I didn't actually call the kid a bitch, I just added that for dramatic effect....
Made me feel cool. Wouldn't it be cool to make a McCartney Bot Reloaded for some sort of alumni event sometime? Some day. Maybe.
Anyways, the day went pretty well I had to bail a little early but I got to talk to a couple of kids about college and how they should just continue to be a boss where ever they go. Heart-warming stuff.
Also, for the record Sam claims that recent senior videos are using things from our senior video. I can't confirm or deny this.... anybody?
Recognize any former campers? Encourage them to buy Boeing jets?
