saturday

this shouldn't surprise you but we had another adventurous saturday. we are lucky to have dave as a friend because he finds the most random stuff to do and it is always entertaining. so, this day, we went to the team america rocketry challenge at great meadows. it is a huge deal!

anyway, all these teams from all over the country come to compete at this competition and they have to launch their rocket 750 feet in the air and have a flight time of 45 seconds and bring back 2 eggs unbroken. it was cool. they win scholarships and money. you should have seen all the people their to recruit these smart kids. impressive. i was definitely out of my league since i am a dumb kid and all.

there were nerds everywhere. see proof, dave and mei li reading the rules and regulations while cuddling....nerdythen these guys came...... in lab coats and bow ties. AWESOME. they had all these stopwatches and computers to do their calculations on the other teams
this guy wasn't really nerdy but there were tons of nerdy kids around this robot (including me). he was so cool. you could ask him anything and he would respond and if you took a picture of him, he would say cheeeeeeeese. i sort of had a crush on him.
nerds by tank like vehicles
and nerds in tank like vehicles.

but then, we came upon the inebriation goggles. oh man they were so funny. dave looked crazy in them.....

....but check out mark!!!!! his eyes were wacky and it was so funny. he thought he was looking at me in this picture. such distortion! nerd.
then we went to this craft fair and wine tasting and really got inebriated and didn't need the goggles for fun anymore (just kidding mom, i am still a teetotaler), instead we made out in this alley. (just kidding again) man, i am funny.
