Re: Most Memorable First Moment

This is easy to answer.

This year at the 2006 Waterloo regional we knew our rivals 1114 and only one other team were our compitition at winning our first regional chairmans award. Our team had only 4 seasoned members. So our entire chairmans team was full of nOObs, myself being one of them.

At the engineering inspiration award we were pumped hoping for this as our ticket to Atlanta, however team 1114 won it. At this point our team was dissapointed and then someone said "oh my god, oh my god look at Karthik guys!!" It was almost creepy becasue he was staring straight at us with this little grin. At this point Hafize grabbed my shoulder...no like clenched it as if she was having birth. And anyone with 2 sections of our stand could hear her almost yelping with excitement while we were going "QUIET HAFIZE LISTEN TO OUR AMAZING SPEECH!" Once Karthik finished listing our accomplishments and such we went and claimed our award.

NOTE: we realized after that the other team won another award that would have meant they wernt winning chairmans or engineering inspiration. So once 1114 was announced we should have know right away without the stare. BUt honestly though it was the stare and hafize's excitement that made this an amazing first moment.
