Ok guy I have some VERY exciting news! As I said in my last post I was busy preparing for a speech tournament and I just got back late Saturday night. I am acting as a stand in partner because the person I was standing in for was in Mexico on a missions trip and his partner wanted to debate at the next tournament. With me so far??? Ok so our debate coach called me and asked me if I wanted to debate at the next tournament and having so badly wanted to debate said yes. I had three weeks to prepare and the rest of the debate teams were so helpful. My partner and I debated 6 times then were told we broke to octos (all 3 team policy teams in my club broke) and we went up against a very hard team. 16 out of like 25 teams broke to octos. The night of the award ceremony my they started naming the placings of the teams (who broke to octos of coarse) and we were not last finally she said and receiving a check mark....our names were called. We were 12th and the first recive a check mark. I was so happy but I could not have done it with out my partner who came up with some of the most damaging arguments or my club. Instead of it being team policy it was club policy. You need two check marks to go to Nationals and the fact that we got a check mark is amazing. You may be wondering what this has to do with food. The answer is NOTHING!! But I will be making a sweet treat for my fellow debaters to say thanks!!!!!!
P.S I will be surprised if you understand any of what I just said.
PPS If you are wondering I compete in a league called STOA.
P.P.P.S. In case any of you are wondering STOA is a national speech and debate organization for home schooled Christians!!
P.P.P.P.S. And in case you are wondering.....yes I am a nerd.
P.P.P.P.P.S. ........
