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

At the minute the season ended you started brainstorming on next year's challenge.

you see a known combination of team number in random places you get excited.

Chief Delphi is your second most visited page on the internet.

You send off a player in soccer for Denying an Obvious Goal Scoring Opportunity, and then think, "Did I report that as DOGSO or DOGMA?"

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

You have so many ideas at meetings, paper just isn't fast enough. As a result, you will probably get ink poising from all the stuff you have written on your hands and arms.

...and your team is starting to accept this as common place.

You're watching a hockey game and do oh well if they win, their seeding points will be 5+4*2+5, which would be 18. That's not bad, oh wait never mind that means nothing here. lol

when you get so caught up thinking about robots that you take a wrong turn on your way to your next class about a mile away on the other side of your high school campus

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

- Your friends have learned to listen to every other word you say because you only talk about FIRST
- A major factor in what schools you're looking at is what teams you can mentor
- Decisions involving FIRST are the hardest in your life, but the most rewarding
- Anytime the word "engineer" is mentioned in your APUSH class, you get a little happier inside

When you think of summer break as great, more time for FIRST.

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

When your teacher tell you the homwork is on page 191... and you yell the X-CATS!

When your teacher is talking about rationals and keeps saying division by zero... and you keep the thinking in your head... TEAM 229!




PS it happened to me

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

When you're standing in line to sell back textbooks at the end of the semester, and notice a tie-dye shirt behind you and think, "Wildstang". And then notice that it's not a Wildstang shirt, but is being worn by an alum of Team 226 and he gets the joke.
