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

You're in your Baking and Pastry class and ...

1) You get excited when the Chef starts talking about safety rules.

2) The Chef turns on the mixer, once you hear the noise you think, "oh no! I don't have safety classes on!" Then you realize...oh...right...it's just a mixer...

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

When, as you read about something completely un-FIRST related, you see the word lunacy, and immediately write FIRST in giant bold next to it...

when all you really want for your birthday is to meet Dean and Woodie, and, since you get to go to the Championship, and your birthday happens to be at the right time (mine's April 18th), YOUR WISH COMES TRUE!!!!!!!!!

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

when you flip out in school [German, 6th hour to be exact] when you see the clock that reads 2:16

you also have a Code Red kid in German who understands. your teacher, however, does not. needless to say, i got many funny looks...

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

You're talking (messaging) with someone and they mention a code red. As in the school lock down type. When you respond, you start to capitalize Code Red...because anything else looks weird.

I lost a few pounds during the build season (I don't have many to spare) but I must say, the 6 Week diet is rather effective!

-When you can distinguish #35 chain from a distance...or you don't even have to be there.

(basically, my radio astronomy friend texts me from the local Lowe's and asks if I know what size chain to buy for our telescope. I didn't know, but I guessed 35, and ended up being right XD)

When your mentor changes the meeting start time to 5:35, and you know why right away. (5:35 is also 17:35)

(still waiting for the right post)

You're excited because you found a way to describe the game in under five seconds.
