Hey everybody! How's it hanging?
There's a lot going on at SistamatiK right now. It's a hoppin' joint. Everybody is busy gearing up for this season. The chassis are being constructed by the build team. That's super important because that's the foundation of our robot, and therefore our team! The Admins are buzzing around getting the Chairman's ready and generally making sure everything's up to speed. We're trying to organize an event in February or March to celebrate women in STEM, so keep an eye out for updates! *wink wonk* Over and out, Admins

Greetings Earthlings
Welcome to our 2019 season, Destination: Deep Space! We know, it's been a while (and we're sorry) but hey! We'll be back and blogging, updating, posting, and sharing our 2019 adventures with you so stay tunes! Stay groovy my dudes, Morgan Schindler Bag Day today folks! The build team was hard at work placing the finishing touches on Shiva. She's looking grand! I can't wait until we debut her at the regional competition this March! In other news, one of our own (Riley Hart to be exact) is a semifinalist for the Dean's List Award. We wish her the best of luck! That's all the updates for now! Stay tuned as we continue to update the website and our various social media pages!
Stay groovy my dudes, Morgan Hello all! (ノ´ヮ`)ノ*: ・゚
As the design head, I have been playing around with possible logo designs (among other things). They need some work, but hopefully we can make them good enough to become official logos. Feel free to share what you think. Now we should probably get working on that broadcast video... ( ̄▽ ̄*)ゞ -Char- (-ω-) zzZ Like our new motto? Sorry we haven't updated you recently, we've been hard at work. Our Chairman's award essay has been finalized and turned in! We had scrapped our script and started anew (it's coming along swimmingly). Riley and Eleanor have been editing a video for their broadcast class that will promote the team. Our robot has been named, Shiva (the Destroyer) much to my chagrin (I voted for Pong), and she has taken her first steps (er uh, rolls). Catch ya on the flip side!
Stay groovy my dudes, Morgan (with just a dash of Charlotte helping) Today SistamatiK rolled on out to SLUH with our star, Omega. The Clavius Jamboree went swimmingly and it was wonderful to see the next generation of FRC teams in action! My old grade school was also there and I was thrilled to see all the young girls representing St. Mark! Never mind my own personal nostalgia, let's get back to robots! Omega drove around for the Clavius kids to watch and ask questions. After a filling lunch and a fun-filled day we all took the excruciatingly long ( 9 minute) journey home to RK. Our build team is working on the chassis ever so diligently (and absolutely not because they were promised pizza when they finished). The admin team has finished the rough draft for the Chairman's award! Now it's time for endless corrections, and rewrites! The script is also supposedly finished. We still need to draft and practice our presentation as well as our video but if the admin team stays schedule, it will all be finished in due time. Hooray!
Over and out, Morgan Man, I must have scared you with that title, eh?
*Wink* No worries, Guilly was mostly dead anyway. I removed what was left of her control system so we could use it in the new one. Remember: Reduce, reuse, recycle, especially if you have low funding. On a separate note, our Mecanum wheels arrived today! They're so cool; I can't wait! Mrs. Lester is satisfied now that she can say, "Cassie, build that chassis!" She's also tried out, "Logan, build that program," but it doesn't work as well. The Chairman's essay is heating up; it's now marginally longer than it was a last meeting. Riley, Morgan, and I are trying to keep it cooking along. At least I'm better at writing than I am at cooking, otherwise I'd be out of a job. Remember to check out all our social media! Riley posted a little ditty of a video that Logan came up with. It is a masterpiece. Like, comment, subscribe and all that jazz (I guess that really isn't applicable here but find a way to do it anyway.) Signing off, Eleanor, the obviously best and most prolific blog writer west of the webpage, so take that Riley Because we keep chuggin' along, get it?
Anywho, the admins are back at it again! The Chairman's essay has significantly grown in length which is grand. An update from Tyler says the script for the presentation is completed which is totally rad! Hopefully everything will come together soon! We received a package today! Some brand new Mecanum wheels! Our build team is working hard as usual, lots of power tools and hustle and bustle over in their corner of our workshop. One of our 3D printer operators, Emily Rollins has been playing around with Marlin (one of our 3D printers). We are thinking of selling 3D-printed key-chains so she has also been perfecting the design. This Saturday we have the Clavius Jamboree at SLUH, so stay tuned for pictures! As Riley always says, "have a nice day" Stay groovy my dudes! Morgan Obviously it is Morgan! I am much lesser compared to incredible blogging power!!
-elnorb Wow! I personally cannot believe that this is up for debate. Obviously, I am the Most Superior of the blog writers. It is purely insulting to say otherwise. I am the person who contributes the most to this blog and I post so much more than anyone else.
Thank you for your continued support, Riley |
