When you are a scout and even after the competition you still have numbers and team names and there team info and robot information run thought your head even 2 days after the regional is over and still think that you have to pick alliances for some reason

Care to share any of those? mine are filled with ideas on how to beat 469 and other improvements to our bot lol

-When you hear songs that remind you of teams ("TNT dynamite" goes to 280, "I'm a be" goes to 33 and "sandstorm" goes to 2771)

- When one of your favorite shows are on and your trying to watch it and post of CD... and failing at the first one

When you see a poster around school with the word "led" in bold (as in, "I led you through the forest") and immediately start wondering why the poster is talking about LED lights.

When you can't sleep before competitions because you're too busy teaching your team the Cotton Eyed Joe, Electric Slide, and proper conga line etiquette

[Tarzan19]

When you dont want to wake up from a dream because you arent done helping the other team figure out with their battery charger yet at a random competition.

When, instead of putting thermometers up to the lamp, you're shaking them so you'll appear better so you can go to the WPI regional...I almost had to

When you find your programming mentor in a dream, both realize you're in a dream, and immediately think, "neat! extra time!" and begin discussing autonomous mode.

haha probably a good idea, I've hinted a few times on CD what our strategy will be to beat 469, but im not giving away any specifics yet.

When
-other sports just don't seem as exciting anymore (there just way to long after 2:15 matches)
- When you spend more time on CD then on Facebook
- When you've walked out of seminar after working, and walk around with saftey glasses on the rest of the day.

When you memorize numbers (phone #'s, addresses etc...) by associating them with FIRST teams.

...when you are talking about going to prom with someone and they say that they will try and dance if you want them to, but your response is "It's like in the shop: if you feel uncomfortable doing something you don't have to do it."
