| speech. last one (2006) and first one (2007)december 9th, 2006: N. Central "Tournament of Roses"
didn't break...did really bad...but not my fault cuz their topics were terrible (and it's a varsity tournament)...i got like a 4 4 2...ick.
wedneseday january 3rd - thursday january 4th = all-nighter! slept like an hour and a half. good times...first the mall (and sarah didn't show up becuz she thought it was the next day! sooo scary)...panera, gloria jean's, all the other stores...then my house. foosball, catch phrase, pizza, shirts, catch phrase (LOL), more food and cake and presents and scattergories, movie, magazines, random stuff...
january 6th (today): Reed-Custer "New Year's Invitational"
thought i did terrible. really. i knew i screwed up the first round, thought my second was pretty good, and killed my last one...but turns out I BROKE (totally unexpected). of course, i sucked at finals because i just can't speak in front of people i know. never have and most likely never will be able to. still, i managed to get 8th (out of nine...pathetic, i know. but still, it was fun) speaking on the sudan (we have like no sources on it...eek!). my judges contradicted each other, as always: 4 1 1. not bad, but then again, the coaches said (and we all know) that it was an easy tournament.
why is it that all breaks are too short?

| oh dang. ESomg.
so
this was my saturday:
woke up at like 6:15am. got to school at 6:55a
did last minute box stuff and got these little sheets called schematics and started freaking and going to the LMC
totally missed my call...i'm K4 and they called me up and i didn't get up there til they were calling some other person. oops? oh well, i still got my topic. it was hard stuff man, intense. but i liked my first topic. prepping is pretty scary. it was so cool, tho, that like everyone would help. when i came back with "immigration", sarah and catherine were pulling out folders for me. and before, when sophie came back, they all jumped into action and i was like, ok i'm gonna help too! and so i gave her this time article. good stuff she said. anyway....there was no way i could practice. it is SO hard to concentrate at like 7:30am on saturday. yea.
so i got to my room for my first round and was supposed to go second. i was freaking out of course, and didn't mind that EVERYONE in my round was double-entered...meaning they need to go first. so i was last. pretty sweet. but uh, my speech was short and i left out some stuff. totally used my notecard.
and then i talked to sophie and drank tons of water and found out that we'd only be getting one prep time. so i did some things...i forget what. i know i did some practicing though. so i get to my second round, and the two ppl before sucked. at least i thought they did. the one girl was like clinging to her notecards. and this other guy had the worst word choice i've ever seen...and he used a notecard. and so i managed to not use my notecard (woot) and i thought my second round was amazing. yay. i get back to the lmc, and the notecard girl told me i was good and that there were two other girls before us, but that they sucked. and i was like oh, ok, thanks. you were good too.
then...i ate a granola bar. i was hungry. i walked around and uh, talked to some ppl. practiced, maybe? i kinda get the time between rounds mixed up. w/e.
so it's round three, and i go in my room. i see wart face. he's creepy. and i watch nivi's friend...not amazing....and then, (dun dun dun......dramatic music) i watch T1: Smith. the ultimate extemp and impromptu speaker...she was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo incredibly phenomenal. seriously, you'd think she'd rehearsed that speech fifty times already. it was flawless. yea, and she just had to go right before me. i go up there and god i died. i contradicted myself like every other line. i said so many things that i had never said before and i was thinking...wtheck am i doing? i'm not getting anywhere with this....
yea, and my judge was such a good actress. she showed absolutely no emotion, she had hard strokes when writing my critique during my speech and her eyes seemed to scream "you suck. shut up already." so i basically died my last round.
first round: ok. second: yay. third: ick.
i'm done early. i go eat and get two free pixies from a fellow speechie. talk a lil while. and kirsten freaks me out by saying "hi winnie..." out of nowhere. she was there for a bball game. then i go back to the lmc to do hw and call ppl. cat comes back and she had a bad day too. and then i go back to lunch after i finish the little chinese workbook. and....I SEE EMMA!!!!!! OMG. i was so happy! and then i talk to a bunch of other ppl. and the same thing happened to sheryl for her rounds. i didn't talk to olivia, kc, or niv much. olivia and nivi were so pumped though. they were running on something...and all of a sudden, ppl start crowding around the trophy cases. and i'm like what's going on? since i'm human, of course, i go and crowd around too. when i'm making my way to the cases, mr. simon points at me and says "go prep." i'm like "what?" somebody tells me i broke finals and i was like "omg no i didn't. i don't want to. i was gonna go do my hw!" i see the list and omg i'm seriously on there. i was like...how is this possible? i totally screwed up my last round! and in my first round, those ppl were experienced...i was the only novice....how in the world did i break finals?
but i did and there was lots of "omg" and screams and hugs and running to the lmc to prep. and i was freaking out.
yea...so finally, i get my topic. saddam hussein. i killed it. it was hard. i wished i coulda gotten something on iran or hezbollah...
anyway. finals sucked for me. so i came in last.
