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

You take all the stickers from the KoP and affix them to anything you can (I currently have a couple Jaguar stickers in my room).

Or when a few members of your team fight over who gets the stickers...

...You're playing on your Wii and your Mii has yellow and black* clothing
...you're talking to one of your friends about how amazing the Wii Fit is, and you find out that her Mii is yellow and black too.

*We on 1189 are too obsessed with our team colors for our own good...even my shoes/laces are imagery compliant!

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

When for the past few years(since joining robotics mainly) you ask for tools for you birthday and Christmas as they both happen right before kickoff and think of what tools you need for robotics on what you want.

I was sitting in traffic with one of my friends and the car in front of us is not moving, and it should be. He suggests: "Bump to pass"...he was not joking.

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

When you:
-Pull out your graphing calculator after a test to graph, while everyone else is playing games on theirs.
-When you figure out the equation to allow any pair of wheels on your soon to be omni-bot to be at full power in Language Arts.
-When you are proud to say that you have successfully programmed a prime number generator on your graphing calculator.
-Don't pay attention in Math and Science classes since you have already learned it in two months after school last year.
