March 1, 2009FUCKING SHIT. FUCK. Fuck fuck fuck. Goddamn.
The results of the competition makes me so mad. I want to blame certain people just to make it easier, but I can’t. The only person I can blame is myself. I haven’t helped out as much as I could have. I should’ve studied more of physics. I could’ve helped Ricky more with everything. A little studying, and maybe I could’ve remembered the formulas for spring constants. Maybe something about breadboards and circuits. Maybe something about electromagnetism. Even if I did save one event from total failure, it doesn’t help the fact that we got 6th place. We tied with San Marino, but they got 5th because they had one more 1st place than us. 4 less points and we would have been 3rd. It was that close. The scoring system is one point for each place you get for each event. 1st place = 1 point. Last place = 33 points. 23 events total. 1st place had 100 points. 2nd had 127. Not surprising, because North Hollywood and Arcadia have well established funds and teams. 3rd place had 231 points. 4th had 232. 5th and we had 234 points. What makes me mad is that there were the events that scored in the 20th and one places, that shouldn’t have. Maybe the people in those events didn’t put in the work or maybe the test was whack. It’s unacceptable.
April 18th.
State competition.
We need to redeem ourselves.
I need to redeem myself.
