15 Signs You're On A FRC Team

1. You barely talk to anyone in school, but are a social butterfly at Robotics.


2. Pit scouting somehow always means button collecting.


3. Actual button collecting time is "Let's try to get the rubber bracelets before everyone else does" time.


4. If you went to St. Louis, your face was like this when you saw the pits:

5. You looked forward to out-of-state competitions because you get to stay in a hotel.


6. When your team got picked to be on an alliance, all of you are like...


7. At competitions, you get excited when they play songs that come with a dance.


8. If the team social involves dancing, you're either a wallflower or you dance to every song no matter how vocal you usually are about not liking it.


"I thought you hated One Direction!"


"Oh honey, that's when it's not first Robotics Day in Chicago."

9. If you normally live under a rock when it comes to pop songs, you aren't after competition is over.

Remember when you didn't know any of the words to "Call Me Maybe" and "You Don't Know You're Beautiful?" Can't say that anymore.

10. This was you when your team won an award and walked through the stands to go get it.

11. During match scouting you're either Harry or Ron.


12. Your mascot is fancy as heck.

13. This is a book about one of your robotics T-shirts, isn't it?

If it's not, it's about one of your teammates' T-shirts.

14. You know who Dean Kamen is.

15.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
