Did your team ever make it out to the Great Lakes Regional while you were on it? I think of the words of Les Miserables every night when I think about our troops in the Middle East... Quote:

... you spend more time at robotics than most people spend at their job
... a new day can't start til you leave the robotics meeting the previous day (when we have all nighters, the days don't pass) ... you say "kill it" whenever you see something jerk (like autonomous mode going wrong) |

You know you've overdosed on FIRST when you wind up in the hospital 3 weeks before regionals and the first thought that comes to mind is, "I hope it isn't broken too badly. That would make it more difficult to fix the robot." |

...when the highlight of your summer is IRI.
...when your FIRST friends from across the country give you more happy birthday wishes than your local friends. |

You know you've overdosed on FIRST when.... you cry when you loose a match you think that it's not possible to possibly download the 'Your FIRST....' video you are on Chief Delphi when you are at a Regional/Championships you try to tell people that they must have their safety goggles on.... when you are nowhere NEAR a regional on your way home from a competition you fall asleep and dream of how the competition could have gone differently you plan to attend a regional every week and then go to championships (sorry Wayne but I think it is slightly insane. although it is wonderful and ambitious) |
Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
You woke up at 3:00 this morning and spent more than half an hour thinking of ways your driving could have been better...

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
After the competition, for days the only thing I heard in my head was "blue alliance!!!"

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
Your priorities after a competition are:
1. Talk about what you will change with the robot, scouting, etc. for the next regional. 2. Try to get your hair back to its natural color. 3. Get your voice back so people stop asking if you are sick. 4. After all that you try to catch up on 3 days of work/sleep/life from being at the regional. |

when you squeal whenever you see a man with brown hair, a denim shirt and jeans just to find out it isnt dean
when you want your team uniform framed because dean kamen signed it. when you start thinking of building a electric go-kart with parts from andymark, ifi, and various other companys when you wonder if the Georgia dome will be ready in time after the storm. If you wonder if that cute girl you met at reigonals will email you back. |
