Welcome to FIRST, side effects may include an addiction to CD, loss of social life for 6-8 weeks a year and, in some rare cases, many more, an obsession for all things mechanical or programming, crazy random dreams and thoughts about designs or games, and in some extreme cases, an affinity for polished surfaces, learning more about first, and famous FIRST members (a.k.a. JVN, Dave Lavery, Dean Kamen, etc.).
Should you experience any of these side effects, one must not worry.
I can tell you close to everyone here (or at least myself) have these experiences quite often.
