I had my first speach and debate tournament, it was tons of fun and I didnt get lost. We went to Sacred Heart, which is somewhere past sedalia and knob noster.
I was really overwhelmed by the amount of people and the organized chaos. I actually got to do whatever I wanted. I like freedom. I ran around with my friend Jake( who was dressed as the doctor). I ended up playing cards and eating food.
So, apparantly you perform twice. Teacher never told us that. So, the first time i went to perform someone dropped in poetry and my room and letter changed. I was freaking out, but someone finally explained and I performed.
I ate pizza and talked to a ton of girls as i waited for round two to start. Some girl said I was crazy because I wasnt nervous, but thats what theater does to you. I got round two over with alot faster than round one.
Me and B went and watched improv, which i wish i had done. It was hilarious. And then finals were posted and everyone mobbed the wall.... Really scary.
I made finals with my Original Works, which I never practiced. And Jake made finals with his (He wrote it on the way there.). I performed again. I didnt get a medal but i did good.
I was insanely tired by the time we were headed home and Jake was sitting with me on the bus so we could talk about doctor who. and we ended up talking about relationships. I never told him much but he understands. I fell asleep leaning on him until i had to put my heels on so i could go home.
I think this is a very good step. because I'm feeling better. I feel like i can talk to people and like its ok fo me to. So, speach and debate is good.
and I'm a journalist in one act at school. :)
