My first FIRST competition was the 2006 Finger Lakes Regional. I had a really great time. It was a whirlwind experience for me, but I do remember a few points:
1.) I had to go in and be interviewed for the Chairman's Award, which was really nerve wracking,
2.) The guy selling Ben & Jerry's ice cream was really nice,
3.) I liked a lot of the music that was played,
4.) People on my team started painting faces/limbs/hair,
5.) I think we almost killed the drive team with a stampede,
6.) And for some reason I remember I dropped the blinking paw light that the X-Cats were giving out on the floor and then it didn't work. But I still have it.
