I'm in a class right now, sitting back as I'm watching 12 grade 8 girls totally geek out on robotics. A few weeks ago I mentioned in passing that we could do a Sumo Robot Wrestling competition, and they showed the kind of enthusiasm that I thought they only reserved for seeing the latest teen heart throb on the street.
"OMG OMG!" "YES, we should TOTALLY do that!"
I've been really hands-off, providing direction only. The two grade 8 classes have researched and formalized the rules, created the competition area, scheduled the competition day and worked out the 9 teams. Right now, they're talking about gear ratios, power levels, light sensor capabilities, conditional loops and how to beat the other teams.
This is one of those moments where I know that I am where I'm supposed to be, doing what I'm supposed to be doing. And that's more rewarding that any poker win.
Thats not to say I won't feel happy about a win in the Riverchasers tonight *grin.

I'm confused... an experience at your work, that made you feel good.!? What's that like??? Pardon my envy.
