Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
When you still can't accept the fact that you're not going to nationals. And it's not because you had an awesome robot or because you felt you "deserved" to go. When it's because your schedule just opened up and you don't know what you'll do with all that free time...
When you get home from a competition and need a tool and you turn to grab it from it's location in the pits.
When you reference the number of safety tokens you earned to a FIRST team. (We had 47  )
When you know you're going to spend 3 days on your feet, you're going to lose your voice, run on sugar and adrenaline, eat the world's worst food for your body, and get NO sleep, and you know that you'll still be fine.
When you've considered a failing your senior year to spend another year with your team. (Instead, I think I might take a gap year between hs and college.)
