Go to Post I don't fully buy into the 'we're all winners' concept. That is a broad statement that doesn't really say much. How did we become all winners? What did we do to become winners? Pay an expensive registration fee and participate in a robotic competition? - JaneYoung [more]

Welcome to 2002

Welcome to FIRST Talk, the post-on thread that is going on for the next 87 hours, give or take 15 minutes, till the kickoff. Talk amongst yourselves. Here, I'll give you a topic: what will you be doing before the kickoff in these few days?

4 days to go ......

I'll be drawing more part models and wondering if FIRST will pull some kind of cruel juke on me and completely change the part list (a reoccurring nightmare I have).

Well, <sigh> I go back to school on the 3rd, so I suppose I should at least try to pretend like I'm paying attention. A small independent study group which I'm in is nearly finished our 'expandable pit area' I think there may be other study groups meeting - but it being their nature to be independent I'm not sure. Other than that, nothing team related is going on until the kickoff itself which is when we finally really start.

Hmmm....

I will be...

1. Doing my homework that should have been done a week ago
2. Eating as many homecooked meals as possible (hard to come by during the Build!)
3. Working more and more with PBasic and other aspects of our controls team
4. And like everyone else... CATCHING UP ON MY SLEEP!

My list is as common as the next person:[list=1][*]Catch up on all the homework I was supposed to have done over the winter break.[*]Finalize my absence from my "independent contracting" gig so I can watch the kickoff with my team.[*]Get some sleep so I am fully alert for the unveiling, so I can better contribute to our team discussion that usually occurs after.[/list=1]Did I mention sleep?...
