It's a funny story.....

Post by violet17 »

A place for all those intesting things that happen at science olympiad.

For example, there was the time most of our team members got stuck in the elevator. Apparently they were trying to jump and touch the ceiling and someone must have fallen against the Stop button so they had to wait in the elevator for a while until someone came and rescued them.

Once I left my pants in the homeroom. :lol:

I also hit my head on a basketball hoop while sitting in the bleachers for the award ceremony last year. When me and my partner found out we had gotten a first at state, she hit me so hard in the back I was knocked over before I got up to get my medal.
There once was a group of teens
Who were lean mean science machines.
They liked to win medals,
when everything settles
and their favorite color was green.

At an invitational, one group doing battery buggy had their buggy all set, and when they put it on the ground all ready, the thing swerved sideways, and started ramming itself into the wall. :lol: :lol:

May will be the worst.

At regionals, me and another friend were bored so we gathered a whole bunch of other bored people and went inside this tall building (we were at CalState) to find the stairs to the roof. We split into groups and went all over the place searchin. I was with the person mentioned above(a guy), and when we thought we finally found the stair entrance, it was actually the mens' restrooms...DDx So we eventually found the stairs anyway.

Our school's SumoBot has successfully stopped working at one point or another during every competition since last year's regional.
My Division is C as in Cat, providing the coach lets me on the team after missing the first meeting.

Attention partners: I will always, always be mad at you for something. Even if you study.

In Division B, we were the only team to show up at a invitational... We still got ribbons, so I was happy. Except for the kid that was supposed to run Scrambler. He set up the Scrambler track the night before, and then he went and committed suicide.
