FIRST has given me $5,000 from the ASME

cause.....
FIRST has given me something that makes me say "I'm going to be an engineer."
FIRST has given me... motivation (125 Stayin' Alive!)
FIRST is given me... "So that's why we need to know this..." versus the normal "Why are we learning this?"
FIRST has given me some of the best people in the world as my "true" peers and friends as well as mentors to turn to and ask for help ("S.P.A.M. in the place that you live" always)...
...and I would never be here at Northeastern without being in FIRST. (Heck all the schools I applied to had FIRST teams!)
FIRST has helped shaped my life... its the best addiction ever.
