... when it's been almost three months since this thread was started, and you're still checking to see if anyone has come up with anything new! :yikes:

When you could have been so sure that one of your Non FIRST friends (who doesn't entirely appreciate the fact that your always never home b/c of robotics) said "Robotics" but in reality, she said "You bought it?"<--How that sounded like Robotics, I'll never know...heh...sleep deprivation...it can be harsh...:)
|
When you spend the day yet again issuing a press release to a lengthy distribution list, investigate radio and tv webs to update contacts, find more community calendars to submit the open house schedule to...
and then your heart soars because you heard a freshman girl teammate was so inspired by the competitions that she realizes she was stupid for not getting more involved, wants to take the jr college TIG welding class, get more involved, and run for captain next year. |
~when even your chocolate wrapper reminds you of FIRST (it's lime green!)
~when it's been 18 days since Nats ended and you're still wearing those nifty little bracelet thingys they made everyone wear |

then again, your sister thinks differently and threatens to chase you around w/ scissors... and you try to convince her too... 'Look, right at the wrist! How can you argue? it's got FIRST on it! Man! I'll even drop all my morals and wear a pink dress to match.. please!!!' |
a.) you drive around for hours looking for bins
b.) you call it a quest c.) you come back and post about it on CD :D |
...when ur whole car inside is decorated with teams pins that i've collected :yikes:

Oh, and you know you're addicted to FIRST when you walk into your chemistry class and someone says, "Wow, you really do own shirts other than ones from robotics!" And you know you're addicted when you've replied to this thread more than once in a single day! ;) - Katie |

~when you start to consider skipping out on placement exams for college just to go to an afterseason competition. (sigh..why do PARC and Rutgers placements have to be on the same day? why oh why must my life be so difficult!) |
...When you realize that the locker numbered #461 is in the senior locker bay and you start plotting how to get its owner to switch with you.
...You broke up with your last girlfriend because she just didn't understand your commitment to robotics and FIRST. ...You realize while at prom that 2 of the people on your team brought people from other FIRST teams, and you guys plan but forget to take a big FIRST prom picture. |
...when you're downloading a game demo off of the internet and it comes out to a total of 10.37 MB.
...when you're editing some pictures for your parents and when you go to print it, the dimensions say 10.37" X 7.00". ...when you're running out of things to say on this thread due to the numberous repeats. (Yes, I admit it, I did repeat some things but oh well.) |
...When you're handing change to a customer after they make a purchase in your store, and it slips... "and RAGE... er.. 1.73 is your change." or "five dollars and chiefdelphi.. er.. 47 cents is your change." etc. etc.
...When you wake up each morning and the FIRST (no pun intended) thing you see, hanging on your wall, is one of your team shirts covered in buttons to the point where you can't tell what color the shirt is, and along side it are various team handouts, medals, and other FIRST related paraphanalia covering an entire wall. |
... when someone 'votes' you as a FIRST-a-holic... and you still think that you haven't posted on CD enough to gain that title. (By the way - thank you so much! That means a lot to me!)
... when you are quoted in the FIRST yearbook and have a picture of you in there (worst picture ever taken. ew.) ... when you anticipate IRI even though it's months away, and talk on the phone to Jtosh from 461 about it every night. |
When you spend a day updating southbaycalendar.org So Cal Robotics calendar...
When you make sure you're in school newspapers, school yearbooks, local papers, local community calendars... |
...when during dances you break out in the (colorado-go team 662!) jig and chicken dance even though those songs arent on :D
...when you still have the FIRST water from nats and use them every day ...when during free blocks, you do all the FIRST dances to get ready for next yr even though ur graduating this yr :D |
