Rollercoaster Reflexion
Today, we went out to the courtyard to see some hand made rollercoasters. I can bet the purpose of the rollercoaster making was to express something to do with motion, you know physics. There were 6 rollercoasters, I bet they all took a while and some pacience to make. The first one they showed was an Asian themed rollercoaster, in my opinion, a perfect 10(60). The rollercoaster was well built and very attractive to the public. The second they showed was a World Soccer Cup themed one, it was a 55 out of 60, it wasn't that attractive to the eye as the Asian one. The third rollercoaster they showed was an Alice in Wonderland themed one, in my opinion it was a 49 out of 60 due to its lack of attractiveness and structuring, it was too simple. The fourth was a Jungle themed rollercoaster, I give it a perfect 60, it was an awesome ride, flawless in my opinion. The fifth one was a metropolitan city themed rollercoaster, I gave it a 45 mainly because it was attractive but the structure was too simple. The final rollercoaster they showed was a ¨CandyLand¨ themed one, it was simply flawless and very attractive. In conclusion, I wouldn't actually enjoy making one ,although, I did enjoy watching them on action.

RoboTec Reflection
So, today we had a guy of the Tec. de Monterrey College to talk to us about robotics and their program for students, RoboTec. I personally liked the whole presentation not only because of the cool robot, but, the work it takes to simply move it. I would like to participate in one of these robot events, I really am interested in robotics. The thing I liked the most are the patterns of commands and their importance. I am not sure I would be able to build one of those robots now, but I can surely start practicing. I can imagine myself in a few years using of these robots for my normal life, you know, using it to complete normal day-tasks. The fact that the robots were made of Lego really impressed me. In conclusion, I really liked this presentation and I hope to participate in one of these events some day.
