Re: FIRST records

The more I think about it, the more profound the spam was. It was essentially talking about recording oneself while playing an instrument so it was in a different context, but I'd like to bring up what it said. It said that recording can be both an ego boost and humbling. I think the same is true for setting a record. It can certainly be an ego boost but it can also be humbling. Sometimes realizing what your capable of just shows how much more there is to do. I mean, great that you did well at robotics but now what? The fact that you set a record worthy of being noted means that you got talent. With that, you have responsibility. You should be pleased that you did well, but think on to what next. That is where you get both an ego boost and humbled at the same time.

Who knew spam could be so profound?
