Oh the possibilities
 

May 10th...May 10th....the weekend after X2 opens (EVERYONE GO SEE IT!!!!)....I'm not home for the summer yet...but I love a good prom. The robot prom from last year was just awesome. You can't beat half the team at one prom. I'd have to see about going home that weekend....maybe if you could find a guy to take a certain someone from up north as well.

Don't you love the vaugeness?

Jeremy_Mc: I can't wrestle...unless you mean THUMB WRESTLING!


:]
Kev

I win!
 

I will go! Simple but effective yes? ****agrees**** Thanks

Re: I win!
 

*gets the big stick*

:p

It's things like this that make me wish I lived in Indiana.

I personally hate dances (yes, that includes proms). Not my type of thing, plus I probably couldn't find someone to go with. It has always been suggested to me that I find some FIRSTer in the area to go as a friend, so this may be an effective means of finding a date for any major dance. Now, I have many female friends in FIRST, but I'm wondering how many of them would be willing to go to a prom with me. You see, all this confusion in a guys head is why I stay away from dances all together.

Anyhow, I wish you luck trying to find a date. I hear there's lots of elegible FIRST bachelors in that area.

She's not going to have any problems finding a date. She even already did.

Ah, I can't wait for my prom. I'm definitely taking a lucky girl from the robotics team. It'll be great, but as I am only a humble sophomore, it'll also be over a year away.

Haha, I went to the senior prom Kokomo, IN this past November. (see picture) It was great - DJ (45) and myself (93), Kyle (45) and Molly (formerly of 45), Eric (45) and his date went together. It was fun. :)

- Katie

We have many a fine gentleman on our team who would be more than willing to take you...

All you have to do is post exactly what the Team Hammond bot does this season...

Cmon... we won't tell anybody... :D

LoL, I would take you if I lived near Hammond. As a matter of fact I live in Ypsilanti, MI. And I'm on team 66. Were you in Florida with your team last season? Cause I think I recognize you, LoL.

Visit the Team 66 website www.willowrunrobotics.com

Guys sorry I already got it on lock and I am From Hammond:p

COLOR=royalblue]yeah i was on the team last year! you guys were so cool (penguins and rage, such nice people!!! actually, so many people at nationals were very nice unless they like refused to talk because they stuck with their own team too much... :-P)[/color]

hehe, good one! but alas.... i would be dead, and then i would not need a date.

what? no i haven't yet! haha, i'm not making any final decision til late march or maybe early april, haha! or maybe after nationals! this way i might be able to meet someone and bribe them to make the trip... although i do have a couple people in mind as possibilities.... but no final decision yet, so i still need some help! hahaha!

yes! robotics proms are fun, last year most of our team went to the gavit high school (hammond indiana) prom, but i was strange and went to morton's (also in hammond) anyway, we all had fun and the people at gavit's prom even took a "robotics" picture.... which by the way... i have yet to recieve! :ahh:

and MAXFLI- hahaha, you aren't really on the team! you're just our groupie! but it's ok, we still love you! (until you make a rose hulman team, then we just love you less... just kidding!)

If I'm going to prom....the rumors for South Fork is April 12 or April 26th. Now if its the 12th....I'm in Houstin for the Championships. Duh! If its the 26th.....maybe I'll go with.... click this (and scroll down to my last post on page 7) Pamela. Who'd ya think I'd ask. Last year I missed prom and well, we both we at the FIRST Championshipn which is a lot more fun than a dance. But at least this year if I'm going...I pay for half. Seniors go for free :p ....which is a good thing as I don't have a lot of cash.

Sorry I cannot help you here because of IB testing in May. Yikes!!!! That bites!!!!!

Just wanted to tell you that if a senior invites you, to the prom you may go. AND DONT WEAR DUCT TAPE!

...I live in NH...Crap...


Bad

Oh yeah I know, thanks. I am content in waiting, though.

Hey mike.... prom is definately the 26th of APril... it's been set in stone for quite some time now. Trust me, it's not the same week as nationals.... cuz if it were, I would cry. I missed last years prom for nationals as well.

I'm safe with that one!

Guys give up i live in Da ville aka hammond

hey!!!
 

Gr! now there is a 98% chance as opposed to the original 50% chance that i am going to need one of you guys to come to prom! Oh noooo! (Boyfriend will be very very far away and most likely unable to import in!) Gah! :(

Thanks Teresa...I feel bad for Kimber on that one.

HOW COME?!?!?!?!

Her (Kimber's) mother wants her to go...and not only go, but with a boyfriend (meaning Ian)!

the dress i'm getting!!!!!!
 

http://www.loralie.com/proms.php3?s=7754

:D guys! i totally found the dress i'm going to buy! hahaha! i like it so much i said totally! actually, this is the dress i have liked, but i went to chicago and tried it on, and i love it times 30 million! you know what... this is my thread... can i prefer people with accents? hehe, i'm just kidding. i'm very non discriminatory! haha, now i wonder if any of you guys would be willing to wear pink to match....

I'm just kidding! I like a good old black tux, but a pink vest/tie would be very very cool! :D

Hey... good luck on your search.... I missed my Junior Prom last year due to Championship... .... ... we just had our Senior Ball two weeks ago..
<<<<(check out picture)
.... it is really fun meeting up with fellow FIRSTers at formals.... it's interesting to see someone go from saw dust and WD-40... to ties and heels :)

*laughs*
 

I'm sorry that you are forced to do this to get a date.. *laughs* that is really sad.. Not that you are sad or anything.. :D Guys are strange.. Hope you find a date, but judging by your responses, you shouldn't be having such a hard time after all.. ;)

I missed prom last year because of Championship....not that I didn't mind cause I did not want to go (championship is more fun). This year I'm going....we at South Fork almost missed it this year if FIRST put the Championships in the last week of April.

hehe, goose u are hot.

although i cant make it cause im in a far away state, so sorry...

drop me a note if u wanna chat or somthing

bad

Whoah. A+ for subtlety.

I'm not into the whole formal dance thing, sadly (well, not really sadly), and Indiana ain't real close to California...

Besides the fact that I don't know you at all.

You're talk about "importing" guys, and all I can think of are $6million fabrege egg from 16th Century Russia.

With a gender ratio like that, Evulish might want to think about transfering to your school... :p *rimshot*

what can i say im smooth :)



bad

When you say "importing", the first that comes to mind is importing 3ds files into Anim8or.

Maybe I am spending too much time with my computer.

Get up from the computer.
Go outside.
Get some air.
Enjoy the fresh air and the natural beauty without thinking how to capture the scene so you can render it for the background for an outdoor scene.
:)

Yeah, same here. I took Pamela on 179 to my school's homecoming. Not to sure whether I'll ask her to prom or not as we are in different schools, IB program, robotics, etc.. but its April 26th so I might ask. Maybe I should quit posting and ask her....and she's mine so don't even think about it!

so now you own her? i don't know, but if i were her, and i saw all these posts about me, I wouldn't be too happy... i mean, i wouldn't want my private life, or every aspect of my relationship, even if it were only a close friendship, to be broadcasted for the world to see

call me crazy, but i feel i know more about yours and Pam's "relationship" than i do about my own "relationship"

and please don't take this personal... i just wouldn't want my own relationship to be public... especially when i don't know whats being said and such (as i'm sure Pam doesn't)

In regard to the last two posts: Yeah, the whole "posession" thought scares me. If I ever find myself in another relationship, I'll make it as much a point not to think of her as a posession as I ever have. That is to say, not at all.

People make their own decisions, and I think I'm barely competent to make decisions for myself, much less considering anyone else my property.

Insert obtuse political philosophy here.

Me being someone else's property, on the other hand... That's different. :p

Posessive...nope...not really. This is me we're talking about here. Actually, to me she is my best friend in the whole wide world. I care about her a lot. Anyway, the reason why I put "She's mine" is really meant as a really good friend of mine. So its really not posession rather its comes out to really how much I care. Its easier using her name besides it has been public eveb\n before I started posting for the world to see. Just cause you didn't know then, now you do. It doesn't take a genius to figure out we like one another. Geez....I hope you guys and gasl don't take it personally. I have told her that I am posting this stuff.

goosefrom71 thanks...I need to tell her a few things as well so I might as well ask.

only you....
 

Ditto

Re: only you....
 

Hey she asked....did you?????

Prom? what prom?
 

lol. I won't have to go through the trouble of trying to find a date this year, as my school's prom is april 11. Beeeuuuutiful timing, eh?

Hey Jeremy_Mc I'm on my High School wrestling team... I think I could take you...lol

eww, april 11th prom... bad...
 

Hi. Look I'd take you if I lived in Indiana but I dont. So who ever is a guy that lives there and CaN take her would be an idiot not to at least ask.

Well what ever.

Later.

I don't have time for prom commitee, Between FIRST and CATCOM... I truly have no life.

Must help Elyse... must ...get ...thread back on top of chit-chat forum...lol



::shrugs:: its the best I can do as of now being down here in florida... ;)

jim rocks jim rocks!
 

:-D hehe, i said before, we'll take you in jim. come to hammond. ...come..to..hammond..... :yikes:

Darn
 

Shucks now what on earth are we going to do here....geez its March now!

INDIA!!!!
 

HOW DOES ONE GO TO INDIA FOR A LITTLE PROM???

Re: INDIA!!!!
 

Think man! Think!....(goes to find a Dr. Seuss book with similar problem....hhow to get somewhere....)

I live in Hammond and on the Same botix's team as Elyse. Maybe I should try for prom with her. Well it's her prom so she is suppose to ask (if the person is from a diffrent school).
Its worth a try.

I know at my school you can take "guests" as long as they're under 21 I believe and you fill out the guest approval form. I wouldn't be surprised if they did the same else where.

You have to fill out a forum to bring a guest to prom? WHAT!?? Ok, now I really do love my school.

Nevermind Peeps I am out of the running.

we'll send you Jim via Yellow Freight, but your responsible for shipping him back in time for UCF...

we have to fill out forms too... but they're just approved, i don't think they actually check to see who's going... since we've had some very old, very strange people come to prom in years past.

and yellow freight? is that safe? :confused:

Ask whoever is in charge of shipping for your team about Yellow Freight, they will probably know. Let's just say we used to ship our robot crates with them and ussually got them back with holes, dents, and long gouges (and these are some very tough crates).

Hey, that sounds better than some of the other ideas our team has had...


...at least im getting there via a commercial shipper. (Usually a team 108 plan involves something to the extent of a catapult....)


but, hey, If it gets me up there :D

haha
 

our school's junior prom is on one of nationals..... its hilarious how the juniors on the team complain

I'm going to a frind's prom on the 12th....oh shoot...got to make sure my stuff's ironed. Missing Nationals cause of that and IB exam review.

missing nats.... for a prom and an exam review???? nooo! prom would NEVER be worth missing nats for!

Hmm I wonder if the Upstate teams could organize some off season competition this summer... That'd rule. I'll talk to some mentors when we get off Spring Break the week after next. Late Spring Break eh? Well we have our own Scrimage before we ship so I don't see why the Upstate (SC), NC, and other local-ish teams can't have one. We'll see....

Dude, IB exams aren't really that hard...
People make them seem as so much worse than they really are...
there is not much need to review if you payed attention all year.

which IB exams have you taken? and... they will be hard if you haven't learned anything due to incompetent teachers...
