What would you do?

You are halfway through your senior year of college. What stands before you are three classes, your major project (an autonomous robot), and FIRST. For the first time in your life you find that you are lost on what to do as the half way point of the year approaches.

You are an 8 year veteran of FIRST. You spent your first 4 years in highschool on a small team with tons of pride. You've gone through the hardships of inexperience, but you learn. You were the main driver all four years, and team president for 2 years. You've been ranked number one at one point during nationals your senior year, and are picked as alliance partners for the elimination rounds by the number two ranked team. You watch your alliance go down in defeat from the sidelines.

You become the head strategist for you team for a year. You become a mentor for high school students. You become a coach, and head of robot operations for your new college team for two years. You've gone to every elimination round since you've joined the team. You've won a regional, design awards, off-season tournaments. You've been respected by your peers.

Now you are trying to figure out what to do next. You want to take a step back to focus on the final half year of college, but are torn on what has become a major portion of life. You've dedicated to putting back as much as you have taken/experienced from this great program. You still want the chance to get that elusive national championship ( a daunting task). You want to continue to inspire.

What do you do?
