you have a 3 pg. essay paper due in 4 hrs, that you didn’t start till 2 hrs ago because of a regional tournament…
and yet you’re still on CD
you know you’re overdosed on FIRST when your firefox speeddial has vex forum, chief delphi, ftc lab, and usfirst site on it
when first is the reason you got into the college you did, but instead of working on a project worth 25% of your grade due during build season, yet you spend countless all nighters working on the robot and NOT your project.
…you spend your entire teacher’s aid period looking for an MSDS for the MK ES17-12 battery instead of studying for a physics test. (BTW does anyone know where I can get one? I’m getting kind of desperate.)
- you hear someone say the word “center” and your mind immediatley goes to center of gravity.
-you are in constant communication with members of your team and/or mentors.
-chief delphi becomes more important to you than facebook.
-When you get baptized in your team shirt!
[yes I did this, although my girl friend wasn’t pleased:p ]
I’ve got two…
…when, after Atlanta is over, you and the rest of your team go into “robot withdrawl” from lack of competitions to attend, watch, and talk about.
…even though you’re supposed to be writing a term paper for US History, you’re still browsing the forums on CD and getting hyped up for your next competition… a little less than a month away.
ooo ooo I got one like that. When you’re supposed to be making 50 notecards for Research & Comp but instead are reading CD because you are hyped up over regionals you WON’T get to go to.
Material Safety Data Sheets are generally for chemical products only.
Holy man! That’s crazy!
you know your overdosed on FIRST when you create or post on a thread about being overdosed on FIRST:D
…Is when you starting spending hours looking at team on The Blue Alliance.
…Is when this thread is about to hit 1,000 post! :eek:
…when you dream about reading posts on CD, only to wake up and realixe it was only a dream
…when you start a countdown to IRI, when its not even spring break yet.
…When you interpret anything in relation to robotics (i.e. people are talking about buying some metal, I ask them what kind and for what only to realize they mean music)

… When you spend your whole day on a webcast sending funny words and phrases on SOAP to the MC and the GA to say.
… When you sit here and wait for people to make 3 more posts so this thread can reach 1000

—When you know by this time next year you will be having a full blown heart attack, at the age of 17, all because the robot will not work as you plan, it is done, the competition etc.
actually at Peachtree I felt chest pains and I was like oh no the heart attack is coming up early, and I won’t be able to see the end of the regional.
Lay off the dew. 
It may just be the caffeine.
