Yesterday was my first round-robin for debate. This means that we have a mini debate tournament. I was hoping that we wouldn't have to debate negative, but unfortunately the schedule was worked so that my fear became reality. Now, I happen to know that we ended up winning our round, but it was still very nerve-racking. I realized a few things: 1. I am really bad at impromptu speeches when I have nothing to back my points up 2. My partner is great at thinking up arguments quickly and sounding confident even if she isn't 3. I need to find a way to keep my voice from shaking.
I did get good comments about my William Wallace speech, though. That was great news. Now all I have to do is memorize it really quickly.
Maybe we will get to watch 3:10 to Yuma or Braveheart tonight.

Alright, shoot me. It’s been a long time since I’ve posted anything. Can I
use the excuse of having two full-time kids and a job that keeps me up late
shak...
