Today is the last day of summer vacation. Looking back on what I said I would do, I realize I hardly did any of those projects. I did almost completely engineering projects, that involved building something. (I worked on NerdQuest and TI-BASIC Editor a little at the beginning) I am blaming this on the off-season robotics competition we went to. The first 2/3 of the summer was a fake build season for the event, where we fixed up the robot to make it actually work this time. And we did a pretty good job. Out of the 20-30 teams there, we got 4th. After that, I didn't really feel like going back to programming, so I built some stuff of my own. In case you missed it:

• Really Cheap Bow and Arrow
• Star Wars Romeo and Juliet scene
• Big Capacitor Bank that I'm still haven't tested
• Butane Gun from Instructables
• Unsuccessfully messing with the High Voltage Power Supply 2
• High-powered Lasers that can burn stuff
• The YAKG K'nex Gun Instructable

I predict that once the school year starts back up, I will get back into programming, and not have time to do too many big engineering projects. But then again, you saw what happened last time I predicted something.
