[Jeff Waegelin]

FIRST has introduced me to so many people, both on my team, and on other teams. I've gotten to know tons of people from other teams through these forums, but I think the people I've met in "real life" on my team have been an even bigger part of it. Of all the friends I regularly talk to, probably 90% of them are team members. I talk to them between classes, during classes, at lunch, on the phone, or online. I spend most of my day with people I've met on my team. I used to be friends with band people, and people I knew in middle school, but now, my closest friends are all robotics people. We spend so much time together during the season, that our build team and drive team have become a very close group.
