Re: How has FIRST changed you?
Perhaps, it has made me pursue higher than I would have without it. I am not really sure how I would have ended up my Senior year without FIRST. I would probably still be on football (actually, since season's over, not exactly). I probably would have ended up taking "blow off" classes instead. May be, I would not even think about college. Who knows? It allowed me to get out of my comfort zone and allow me to do things I would have never have done. I am now confident in public speaking and am able to take criticism. It solidified my career goal. It really showed me how to work in a team, being able to give and take and doing the best in my area.

I can also say that it probably inflated my already big ego, but I have learned so much within those 3 years. Confidence is a good thing.
