when you keep coming back to this thread to see what people have posted

[Stephi Rae]

...When you're in DC for the Naval Academy Summer Seminar and see people going down the street on segways and yell STOP!! so you can get out your camera and take a picture.

...when you see those segways, the first thing you think is to look and see if you recognize any of them (the people on them that is...lol)

...when you are seriously depressed that when you try to talk to anyone about FIRST they have no idea what's going on, but you find someone that's involved in FIRST, and it magically works out that you have the same afternoon schedule and end up winning the balloon car race, and talking about FIRST for 4 hours!!!

...when you're both super excited to learn that the Naval Academy is involved in FIRST, and are currently looking for which team they are involved in.

...when you go through withdrawel from CD after being w/o internet access for a week (resulting in a long post like this)

...when every time you come back to check, you are disappointed at how many times you yourself have posted, but then come up with something new to say and say it anyways... even if you were the last person to post... lol

[Stephi Rae]

...when you're on a FIRST related facebook group and just have to post this up right away

...when you no longer care that it will be your third post in a row on this thread

...when it's not the first time that this has happened

...when you will dive in front of the robot when someone (*cough* Tedrick *cough*) decides to figure out what happens when you mix a C-clamp and a water bottle, and points it at the robot... ! !

... you travel from Central Jersey to Worcester, MA for the weekend just to be at BattleCry and you're team isn't even competiting

[HypnoticSheep]

...your autonomous code doesn't work and your bot just spins in a circle and you start spinning along with it during a match.

[BlondeNerd]

...while emptying out your backpack for summer, you realize that most of your school supplies are team handouts.
...your friends actually know what you're talking about when you ask for your "Lenny Pen (team 2234)" or your "robot highlighter"

[tseres]

...when school ends next monday and you cant wait till it comes back so you're even closer to FIRST season, then when school starts, you can't wait till January when the season actually starts

Not just on English assignments, but any asignment that could possibly allow you to relate anything to do with FIRST... like math, science, psychology, gym...

You are truly disappointed when you see nothing has changed on CD.
