Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 
...when your friend is talking about a noodle fight and you can think of a much better use for pool noodles
...when a team member mentions Madame Curie in a game and you call them a nerd, only to find that they were not, in fact, referring to a division
...when you spend your time online looking up CNC mills and toolboxes
...when you go to Border's before prom and your friend hands you a robot book
...when you actually already own aforementioned robot book
...when you are sad that you had to clean the robot pictures out of your locker a week before school ended. Now it looks so bare!!:(
...when you actually take off of work to go to an offseason robotics meeting

What class were you in bgee? there were no classes today... lol...

but anyways...

...when there is no class and a few of you spend the entire school day working on robotics related things... even during the presentations by college admissions people... lol and are the only ones that don't consider the day a waste of time

...when you're not surprised that your coach lights microwave popcorn on fire in the robotics room for the third time in three months, resulting in smoke, lights, buzzer, and another visit from the fire department. :ahh: :yikes: :D

...you spend an hour or so in borders in the engineering section wondering why there isn't anything about FIRST, or Dean Kamen, and especially why they don't have their own separate sections, or better yet, bookstores! (I ended up buying a giant calculus book so I can better apply what I've taught myself in independent study calc... lol)

when you are at a district choral concert that just happened to be in the same place as the nearest regional causing you to have strong urges to put on safety glasses and walk over to where your pit was in the past year

...when you and your guidance counselor spend a full hour rearranging your entire schedule so you can fit in the brand new Robotics course. :D Lunch is overrated.

Excuse me, but, Lunch, and all of the other meals in any case, are NEVER! overrated.:rolleyes: Trust me, you really shouldn't miss any meals, it's bad for your health. At least have some sort of snack, an orange, something. Keep your energy constant.

Yeah, we get this pass that lets us go grab food during another period. Believe me, it'd take alot to stop me from eating. :D

Don't leave us hanging! What are the words? What are the tunes?

You know you're overdosed on FIRST when you actually want to know the words to songs about robotics! :D

You know you're overdosed on FIRST when you want to learn the songs and sing them at competition. :D

...you know you've overdosed on FIRST when you are angry that you don't have meetings everyday so you can ask your teammate (b.gee) what the songs are and learn them in person, therefore going into yet another deep round of FIRST withdrawal!:ahh:

you know you are overdosed on first, when you still think anything bright green could distract the camera. when you are preparing for a robotics summer camp, and you cant decide which team t-shirt to take. when you start randomly taking things apart, just to be able to build something.

You show everyone you know this post and you have read it a million times. And you also know that you have done all of these things yourself.
