I think it far more likely to hear of their accomplishments, something they did to make things better. Well that's what FIRST is all about. Wow, we really are lucky! We've got something that is really worth caring about.

Love that!
We got our new tshirts that are still orange, but I guess the "new" orange was brighter cuz at the restaurant we often go to for breakfast with our shirts on, we got more attention than ever.
The guy across from me looked at us with envious admiring eyes "robotics, that's not a word you hear very often."
I've imagined in the future that when all I have are memories that some of my best memories will be about this team, these students, the uniqueness of being in robotics, the mentors, the people in FIRST, the school faculty that helped, all of our accomplishments (not the awards) in making good things happen.
