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

the one thing that ALWAYS makes you feel better is a FIRST shirt.

When you don't have tape from one of your competitions and it bothers you all the time (Anyone tape Chesapeake Bay regional?)

When your entire interview for your first choice college (to which you are eventually accepted and offered piles of money) turns into you explaining FIRST to the interviewer who is really interested in it.

this is especially true for me, or when people say "oh. the segway guy." i FLIP OUT. ...."it's not the only thing he's done! look how he's helped people! look at this high school program!" and you don't shut up about it until they agree.


....oops.

When you laugh at the room you take one of your regents is because you know the number is one of the teams you really enjoyed to watch (room 217 was the room I was in today).
