Frisbee, Grad Party, and RoboGoby

After a long night you woke up this morning at 08:30 to meet everybody at FHS at 09:15 for frisbee states. You then caravanned to the fields to play your first game at 10:30. At 10:30 you started by playing Windham. You won that game, but by the end were somewhat tired. You then played Yarmouth without any break in-between games (they hand;t had a game at 10:00 as they got a by). We lost that game and then continued to lose the next two games against South Portland and Falmouth A2. After playing frisbee games for more than 6 hours you were beat.

You headed home, took a shower, ate a quick dinner, and then headed to a graduation party in Yarmouth. The graduation part was for two of your friends you have been swimming with for the past 5-10 years. The food at the party was good (they had a portable brick oven!!):

 ...and there were lots of games and people there, although you did not know many of the people as they were all kids from Yarmouth. Anyway, you had a blast and then returned home at 21:30. Once you returned home to wrote your Senior Project Write-up, edited the presentation Nick had moved from our MLTI presentation, and then worked a little more on organizing the code for the project. You also started working on the second Cape for the Submerged BeagleBone, although it is not yet finished.

Frisbee states and busy work

Today you woke up around 0830 and then headed to the high school at 0915 to bring people to the Cumberland Fairgrounds for the frisbee states tournament.

Freeport Ultimate (FU) had a good first game – you won by universe point after hard cap. You then lost to Yarmouth, South Portland, and Falmouth A2. All four of the games were back to back so you played frisbee from about 1030 to 1645.

You got quite beat up from diving and sliding, with both hips having large scrapes as well as your right elbow, and you got a sunburn.

Upon returning home you ate, showered, and napped to regain energy. After recovering you wrote the first draft of your essay, created a rough draft of the presentation, and worked on a couple of Limbeck paraphernalia pieces in Photoshop.

Cameras and Prom (5/31)

You wrote this a day late as you got home fro Prom so late last night.

Before that though you worked at Travis's house from 0900 to 1400 on the project. You mostly worked with Liam and were trying to put together the camera housings and make the cameras fit inside. You cut slits in the boxes that needed it while Liam ground down the corners of the Pi-cameras so that they would fit. It turns out that you also had to cut away some of the box material so that the cameras could fit in the way they are supposed to.

After getting the cameras to fit you two worked on getting the pieces to mount together. You went to the hardware store and bought 6-32 threaded rod and nuts to make you own bolts (they didn't have bolts for some reason). Upon returning you sanded a couple of the pieces and cut the threaded rod so that it fit the pieces together as best as possible. You then tried to mount the nuts inside of a couple of the pieces so that they don't take up very much room. However, a blow dryer and a hot glue gun were not the necessary tools for the job and so we are going to have to wait until our next Baxter trip.

After returning to your house you cleaned your car, washed yourself, and got dressed for prom. You went to Emily Jennings' before and after party and while there you also saw loads of cameras…

You had fun and accompanied Emma to Emelia von Satlza's graduation party for a short time as well. Finally you went to bed around 0100 thinking about the upcoming frisbee states.
