Had my team over to my place tonight for potluck and board games. We played Cranium and lightning round Pictionary (something I made up so we don't have to play with the board)
My aunt brought my grandmother back from Hong Kong to Toronto today. Can't wait to see them.
We didn't win :-( but we did get an honorable mention shout out for our idea.
I'm super proud of our idea and I can't wait to compete again next year! I'm setting Google Calendar reminder 50 years from now to see which of the solutions we're actually right. :)
I ended up writing a few cue cards just to make sure I nail my really important points.
I practiced my speech all night. I just kept running through my lines while pacing around my living room.
Went out to dinner with Jen and her coworkers tonight. It was the first time in 2 weeks that I had a real meal. Yum!
Martin, Jess and Jen from, what I like to call, The Dream Team (two time winners of the Rotman Design Challenge) took time out of their busy schedules to watch us pitch our idea and give us feedback.
Frank (one of my Rotman Design Challenge team members) is always "snacking".
His snacks are like meals for me. One night we were at school late, some of us ran out to grab food and he came back with grapes and a huge bag of granola. We have no idea how he found those things so late at night.
This is what humidifiers look like nowadays. Cray!
This is what my old humidifier used to look like when I was a kid =D
Target is the sponsor for the Rotman Design Challenge this year. After 3 weeks in problem finding mode, my team came up with, what we think is, a pretty kickass solution! We're really looking forward to the competition.
