On the contrary, it would be a great simulation of build season compacted into a couple of days, minus the robot building. :rolleyes:

You know you've overdosed on FIRST when your English essays start to include math in them :eek:

Back on topic... how exactly can you find out when the Google Earth satellites pass by a certain place? Because that's kind of important to know if you're trying to get in their shots (and standing outside for days on end is not fun at all)

Ask someone at Google. I'm thinking about emailing them.

BUT, this is for another thread, this has gone off topic for too long.

Now, back to the thread:

You know you've overdosed on FIRST when you cry at your last meeting of the year. :'(

Now that is a legit reason. :cool:

-You take a tour of a robotics facility and spend most of the time talking about your team's robots and your experience with FIRST. :cool:
-Your senior project involves coaching FLL Teams. :]

- You are going to miss some of a day of build to volunteer at an FLL competition.

When after your first kick-off, you can never think of the word 'first' the same way again.

When later on taking the PSAT writing portion, and the word 'first' is mentioned to mean like the number, you stop reading, and start writing about robotics, and still get a good grade!

WHEN you schedule surgery, like I am doing, to remove a major organ around making sure it doesn't interfere with Kick-off/Game Announcement and the six-week build period...

When the power goes out during a team meeting and nobody really wants to go home.

When you still try to demo a robot in said power outage.

... When you are up at 1:30 in the morning and wake up the house bouncing around seeing that you get 4 emails from your coach.

..... When you quickly text your friend about how your coach is "still alive" (he's a very busy man, Emails confirm his existance. We are also pretty sure the man never sleeps)

... When you feel horrible at the end of your least LL meeting realising it is the last time you can mentor....... As a highschooler...

... When your 6th graders try to convince you to go to the local engineering college so you can mentor until they are throuh HS

... When you plan to make a list of numbers- from # of glasses of pop drank by your team at resteraunts to the amount of time spent traveling and miles gone...

... When the reason for the list is because your coach mentioned in an email that appx. 5000 miles are going to be traveled, as well as going to 2 countries for competitions and throuh 15 states for all of your competitions this year

When you start ordering your contacts by robotics and not cool enough for robotics. :)

When you watch someone struggle to cut thin wire with scissors and without even thinking about it pull out your multi-tool and hand it to them.
