Matt doing things
Matt has been busy with school and robotics. For not seeing a lot of him, I was able to take lots of pictures.
 |
| Here Matt is working on a project for "A Tale of Two Cities" for English class. It's a guillotine made of yarn. A most ineffective guillotine, if you ask me. |
 |
| The finished guillotine. He says there is symbolism in the use of yarn and the colors of the yarn. It looks like a dream catcher. He got 28 out of 30 on his presentation, and apparently the teacher said he's good at BSing. I asked him why the teacher said that and he explained that his project broke during the presentation and he found a way to incorporate the breakage into his symbolism explanation. |

 |
| You can never get a good picture of a short trombonist. You can only see half his head. |
 |
| The Wind Ensemble plays "Godzilla Eats Las Vegas." This is either the third or fourth time I've heard this played at t a PLHS band concert. Usually they have a kid dress up as Elvis and I was hoping Matt would be such an Elvis, what with his ability to form an Elvis pompadour with his hair, but they did a Power Point instead. |
 |
| Matt and a friend did offer a celebratory toast during the song (Matt borrowed stemmed glassware from our house for this) |
 |
| And now we move on to Robotics. Matt's natural habitat, the Cave. |
 |
| He is wearing his safety glasses this time (the one time he didn't wear safety glasses, he had to go to Urgent Care for the removal of a small piece of metal debris from his eyeball. It happened last week) |
 |
| Working on the competition bot. Notice that it is painted red. He pointed that out. |
