Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

Wow, Ok Now I know I'm a FIRST Addict after reading the last 30 somewhat posts. =)


....when you mark your calendar for a "FIRST WEEK" and all you wear that week is nothing but team shirts / FIRST Related clothing.


....You beg your boss for a different schedule so you can have more time doing things at home even though the real reason is b/c you want to spend more time doing FIRST Robotics and alot of its related work =) [I went from a 12p - 8p FRI / SAT schedule to a 4p - 12a schedule w00t maybe if I beg my boss next year i'll get a later schedule so i don't have to take days off for competitions. =D


.....Every time you work by FRC Competition venue, you try and spend as much time there planning for next years event ;=)


....After being an alumni for 6 years you still go back to your old HS and help them build a robot for next years competition


....your up at 2:45a posting stuff at cd

Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

... When your voice is gone after one match, and you still manage to be the loudest on your team

... When you make a special trip to Lowe's just to buy the new shaded safety glasses that are out

... When your English and religion teachers ask you about robotics every day, even referring to it in class discussions

... When you start to compare sports such as hockey or football to a FIRST event

Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

...when you return to Chiefdelphi and people still know who you are
...when you find yourself spending more time editing the team website as a college student than you did actually running the page.
...when you IM a FIRSTer randomly only to find out they already know who you are *cough*elgin*cough*.
[edit]...when you see a sign for maximum occupancy on the wall that reads 207 people and you immediately think of the ThunderChickens.[/edit]

...when while you're sorting out various nuts and bolts, you come across a hose clamp and take it merely for the purpose of wearing it as a ring to showing off your new-found ghetto bling bling.
