You might be a FIRSTER if you'll only wear denim or hawaiian shirts.

...Your parents know all you think about is robotics
...All your spare time after the build season is spent with your FIRST team members or on CD
...As a freshman you're sad because you only have 3 more years left of FIRST.

Re: You might be a FIRSTER if...

...you still have 6+ hours of video from regionals to review and edit.
...you think that the aluminum shavings in your friend's hair look cute.
...it takes you forever to figure out that the "cool new flavoring" in the school lunch is actually Lock-Tite that is permanently distilled into your skin.
...your pocket has holes in it because the screws that came from when you opened up your crate at regionals got washed with it.
...you wish that you lived in a colder climate so that you could have snowdays that you could devote to working on robotics.
...you made friends over this site that you have never even met.
...your dad is building a VEX robot on the floor like he's a kid who just got a new Erector-Set.
...your dad will not leave the VEX set alone long enough for you to fiddle with it!

Re: You might be a FIRSTER if...

.... you've put a Post-it note on your forehead saying "I can't, I have Robotics" so people will stop asking you if you want to go to the movies/mall/etc (guilty)
...you've proven that it IS possible to live off of nothing more than caffeine and pizza for at least 6 weeks
....you pass up dates with not one, not two, but THREE different people to be at a party for your robotics team coach (guilty)
....you've ditched school to work on a robot


(Sorry if any of these have been posted before, but it's currently 1 am and I'm too tired to read through all the other pages of this )

Re: You might be a FIRSTER if...

You might be a FIRSTer if your driving down the street and see a street sign that says "Lavery" and you yell out DAVE LAVERY!!! And no one else in the car understand what your talking about..
...your team captain suggests painting your room FIRST colours and you actually think about doing it..
...your willing to spend until 3:30 in the morning to dig out a trailer and pack it for competition!!...
You add a countdown till Nats in your MSN screen name!

Re: You might be a FIRSTER if...

You see a neon green shirt and automatically assume that it's MOE or M'Aiken Magic.

(I add M'Aiken Magic due to proximity here. And I bumped into a girl from there the other day waiting for breakfast.)
