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

[VGMasterShadow]

...you think perfection is spelled F.I.R.S.T.

...you're mom says your room looks like something out of a Frankinstein movie.

...posting in this thread is a necessity.

...all the threads you've posted on was FIRST-related or robot related.

...When you count the days til January like they were school days.

...you are at basket bingo with family, and everytime they called out a number...no matter whether it was a door prize drawing, or during the actual bingo time you thought of a team or person from the team almost every time...

Crazy!

a few days ago, i had a dream that it was kick-off. i'm not sure exactly what the rules of my dream game were, but the field took the multi-level playing field to new heights (pun intended). still, it made more sense than my last kick-off based dream, which i had about a year ago.

Oh man, I would if I could, but
A i'm ususally asleep at that time,
B i don't actually have a regular internet access at home (as in, I'm at a friend's house right now using his airport connection on my school laptop), and
C the school system doesn't really like it if kids are at school (my other home, in the robotics lab) after school using the airport, especially at 2 am.

When you take a break from finshing up a writing paper and out of the 7 new e-mails received in the last 4 hours, 5 of them are from CD.

When you're trying to figure out how much work you'll be able to do on your car this winter and still have time to be on the team.

Dude, that happens to me for over 6 weeks every Jan-March. I get up before he does to go in early to school, and don't get back until he's been asleep for hours.

-The only reason you're still in school, (and half your classes) is to be able to stay on the FIRST team.

You bid on and win a poster on ebay from a robot inspired movie, even though the movie doesn't open for 4 months.
w00t to winning it for $1. (plus 7 dollars shipping?)

Just bring it in the shop and we'll work on it at Dinner time.

When bored you make a FIRST-opoly game. And then draw the FIRST logo on your car with window paint.

when you realize that its 2 in the morning and most of the chiefdelphi users online are mentors and engineers who are looking through threads to answer our questions...

...you plan on giving your parents the URL to the FIRST online store for possibilities of Christmas gifts...*twiddles thumbs innocently*
