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

When you nearly cheer at a college open house because the first item on the list of things your entering class has done is "FIRST Robotics."

When you come home from school and get on CD, then realize (two hours later) that you're still on CD...and you're leaving for Atlanta tomorrow and need to do homework...

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

you don't study for a huge exam until 3:00 AM becuase you are on CD.
you order an Asus EEE pc just for scouting and as an excuse to buy one

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

When bored:

-With a computer: you dream up projects for your programming team to work on during the summer (maybe just a programming team captain thing)

-With a cellphone: you go to YouTube (love sprint) and search for the newest videos tagged with 'robot' (latest finds: one (toyota sometimes scarily amazes me), two (yes, it's a pneumatically actuated rubik's cube solver), three (self repairing chair))

-With yourself: you play around with physics and calculus to see what interesting relationships you can stumble accross.

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

when you realize you missed post 1114

when you tell a member of their team, to post on their number

When you're desperate for text messages from teams in Atlanta, because you want to know what's going on and your parents won't let you skip school.

You plan a robotics demo the Friday of Atlanta just so you can stay in your teachers room for an extra hour after watching matches.

You start planning how to make a robo prom dress for next year

You "ban" your self from CD until Atlanta is over, only to find your self posting on this thread....
