Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

...When you're still wearing the awesome tie dyed sweatband you got from 88 that you haven't taken off except to shower.
...When your wrap party wrist band was lovingly cut off so it wouldn't get damaged and you could save it.
...When you spent today sleeping in more than one class.
...When you told every single person you talked to a story from Atlanta.
...When you have a countdown on your myspace already until next year's kick-off.
...When you spent 2 1/2 hours on the ride home making plans for the off-season and for next year.
...When you're posting on this thread regardless of the fact that you have a 10 page paper due tomorrow that you haven't finished, plus make-up work.
...When you get to school and immediately, from a teammate, hear how long it is until kick-off...to the second.
...When several teammates post this information on your team website during school.
...When you realize you have four internet windows up right now: the FIRST website, ChiefDelphi, and two e-mail windows...and both e-mails are to people on FIRST teams you met at competitions.
...When you see three championship sweatshirts and one t-shirt at school, and another team member says hers was dirty or she'd have worn it...and you only have 7 people from your school on the team.

-when you get back to school and realize you have hours of homework to make up, however, you would never trade the championship experience for anything else.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

--When you walk back into school on Monday and realize how dull and quiet everything is...and how no one at school will ever REALLY understand where you've been for the past few days.

that and...

--When you are constantly crying or tearing up (and believe me this is not an exaggeration) because you realize the best thing that ever happened to you in HS is coming to a close and just a wave of depression hits you.

I <3 MORT and robotics for LIFE.

1. You are on CD 4-5 daily, one to hours MAX.
2. Look up matches from this year and look at photos also.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

... You have spent the last 18 hours editing the Championship footage
... You refer to everything by numbers
... You chant Oink Oink BOOM as you watch the bacon in your microwave
... Your friends offer to buy you lunch if you don't say WildStang for 30 minutes, and you end you not eating becuase you left your lunch money at home.
... You order Thunder Chicken Nuggets at the school lunch line
