You just told a friend "If you need anything just 175 me" ...

You've returned to Chief Delphi to check up on things after a few years.

Glad to know we made an impression! (If you want to follow our team, join our FB group!!! http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gi...7304908&ref=ts )

When you put "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!" as you FB status, and 5 min later, someone puts down OI, OI, OI!!!

When you are shocked it took so long for the above to happen...

When you get in trouble in AP Computer science for trying to figure out how to program a swerve drive in java, and not participating in the AP review

when the only reason you take AP computer science is so you can program the robot

When you use the robot's code to skip ahead to AP computer science. (We have 1 year of "learn java" class before we are normally allowed to enter AP)

...when you do your math homework, and write ideas for robotics next year, and make packing lists for Championships, and jot notes about editing the videos from Champs when you get home....all on the backs of used pages of scouting data from Regionals :D

....when you're the most enthused member of one team: get back from Regionals and get yourself onto another local team as official videographer at Championships

...when you go to meeting for one team, and that evening go to a science fair with the other team, then come home and make plans for the off-season events

....when you STILL can't bear to discard any of the outdated robotics documents on your computer: robotics stuff makes up most of the 1s and 0s on my comp AND both external hard drives.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

when you get excited when you find out you have relatives on other FRC teams (1684 and 67!)

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

When you have been obsessed with designing stuff for off season projects and every day on of the other programers always says "What do you have for me today" every seventh hour.

Oh, darn! And I thought that being away for a few years would cure the overdose! :(

-You're 16, and a mother of 3. Robots, that is. (and you conclude that you also should get flowers, even if your children are gutted and locked in a dark cage this weekend)

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

When you are really mad at yourself that you explained to your mom everything about Battlecry and how your team did since she is away for the weekend before telling her happy Mother's Day! :( :( :( :( Such a bad kid.... :( Now to make a cake.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

- You have dreams about FIRST cakes
- You collect many things, but your proudest collection is your collection of FIRST shirts
- You chose a project topic in Spanish just so you can incorporate FIRST into it

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

-Your friend is reading an exchange paper in journalism, and when she says "hey, they have a robotics team!," you grab the paper out of her hands saying "AHHH WHAT TEAM??" and read the article.

...and this has happened twice. 1504 and 167.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

...when, instead of counting sheep before you go to bed, you try to name as many teams as you can, and then put them in numerical order :)

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

When you get back from Atlanta and are walking around in a fog because your eyes are so used to safety glasses.

When you realize you are writing this wearing your team shirt to bed, because you miss robotics
