I have pulled three all-nighters in my entire life. The first one was before the last day of the semester my senior year of college. We had to make sumo wrestling robots and ours was having programming issues. We spent all night debugging our program just to decide at the last minute our logic was [...]

I was recently asked how to make Ollie the Octopus. Actually, it wasn’t that recently, I just fell off the face of the earth for a little while. I hope it’s not too late! Ollie actually isn’t too hard to make. The secret is having the right pan. I rarely use shaped pans, but my [...]

Just had to bust into my suitcase to get my computer after I lost the keys to the very heavy-duty lock. And by very heavy-duty, I mean I busted the lock using my hairbrush. Also, my bad, the Winter Olympics in 1972 were in Japan, not Munich, so I have no idea why there’s a [...]

Ok, I’m on the world’s slowest internet connection, so we’ll see how this goes. I’m in Munich! I slept in kind of late today which wasn’t the greatest idea. Turns out since it’s the off season, pretty much everything closes early here. So with a late start, there was a lot to cram in today. [...]

Between the weather, the lack of vegetables, the aches, and the fact that a few of us have come down with clothes, I think most of us are ready to leave Vienna. I’m heading to Munich tonight and I excited for the change of scenery. I’ve got a nasty cold that’s been kicking my butt, [...]

That’s right, the clock is rounding 12:30 AM and I’m pleased to say I’m still awake. Hopefully I finish writing this post before I fall asleep, but no promises. Today we finally got to our finished product; the whole reason we’re here in Vienna. We spent a lot of the day playing with our big, [...]

Let’s just say the hotel rooms are…a little warm. We’ve all turned our heat completely off and have been sleeping with the windows open, but man, the temperature in this room is HOT. In other news, the floors of the bathroom are heated which one wouldn’t normally think about, but once you’ve experienced it, I’m [...]

Made it! Back in Vienna, pooped but excited. All and all, the trip wasn’t too bad. The lovely Andrew dropped me off at the airport and apparently with my big sweatshirt, my big jacket, and windpants, I look like a hooligan. I managed to make it through the ticketing line alright, but before going through [...]
