Girls,Why did you join FIRST???

I took the provided tech classes in the middle school, enjoyed them, and did really well. Then the entire eighth grade class came up to the high school to preview their classes and the computers teacher mentioned a robotics team. I thought that it sounded cool because I've always been into art and math. Thankfully, FIRST is a mix of both, plus machine technology, etc. So I put my name down on the list and started to attend the meetings. Being a rookie team, we had absolutley no reason what we were doing.
Another reason why I joined was because there were a few people on the team that I had wanted to meet since sixth grade. News of those interesting ones travels quickly. So I made a bunch of wonderful friends who I can count on to be there if I ever need them.
I know you all hear this often, but FIRST has changed my life in a very big way.
