I got involved in FIRST because it was something different. I have never really been interested in anything mechanical but I thought i should try something new. I joined thinking I would just do it for a year because I thought I would totally dislike it. After going through the process I realized that I enjoyed it very much, and that I wanted to continue doing it. I met TONS of new people my first year and I experienced so many things which I wouldn't have experienced if it wasn't for joining my schools robotics team. I am now into my second year on the team and I'm enjoying every second of my experience!
