Our helicopter probably looked somewhat similar to that, then. :lol: Unless by that you mean that it was ridiculously small.

I was thinking more like a hunk of wood with wings, isaysroar. The wood we used was really thick for some reason and the rotors were puny. It sort of looked like a fat bug with tiny wings trying really hard to fly but ending up flopping on the floor. :D

My favorite moment was last year at nationals when my partner (who's also my best friend) and I got 5th in Disease Detectives and she started crying since she was so happy. :D

Definitely captaining my team to 4th place and thus, states, something we hadn't made in the past 3 years because of a couple of magnet schools being created in my area that we had never managed to beat prior.

One that I thought would be really proud but was really embarrassing and felt really pretentious was walking up for my 8th medal, a gold in WIDI. I kept getting weird looks from the audience as I walked back to my seat. Also, the clinking was a bit excessive. And I was also really bitter I didn't medal in Chem and TPS, which I had never failed to medal in before... :evil:

My proudest moment is this year at regionals, when I had four medals jingling around my neck, annoying the heck out of the other teams.

Definitely getting 6 medals at Regionals this year, and our overall team score of 50. The clinking (a nuisance to almost everyone) was music to my ears.

My friend also got 6 medals, although we do no events together.

Hahahah that's funny because in my team we have a tradition to wear our metals at school the next day and so much of us had 2 or more metals that the teachers made us rubber band them together :lol:

At Regionals all but one person on the team(including JV) got at least one medal.
Also, about getting second in Stars :x :x :x :x
FPTP (first place team problems): I got a second place medal in my supposedly best event!
