When your entire team has agreed that the only way that we would be kept from the competition would be if we were unconscious or strapped down on a bed and drugged. Not even the flu/puking/high fever wouldn't stop us. :mrgreen:

And no, I'm not a guy...even though my sig says will robsinson. It's a reference to Lost in Space, an ancient sci fi TV show. And the robot is the character who always says the line.

I had the flu last year at states. My parents drove me to my events, and once I was done with my events, drove me back home. I could barely stand. But I went anyway! :D

when you know more about certain subjects than a teacher, and get annoyed when they give you false information, information that isn't quite right, or teach you something that has been dumbed down

when you ask a teacher for help in an event and they tell you what you are trying to learn isn't something that you should need to know, even though it is

When you become an assisatant couch for your team,
when you become the couch for your team,
when you know what a "magnetic declination" is.
When you laugh at a reason to prove you've been in scioly to long.
When you get sick but go to school anyway so you can be at the scioly meeting.
