DEBATE!!!!

well i have to admit...i am COMPLETELY addicted to debate. i CANT get enough...i am constantly trying to learn new things about it and get better. i have practiced debated with some varsity...and it was the scariest thing ever...but totally awesome at the same time! i have decided to do a kind of debate called policy which is lots of fast talking....cross examining and fast arguments. its tons of fun! today i had my first debate tournament! it was at IF and was just a congress tournament. which basically means you sit in a room for 3 hours with the same 15 people giving 3 minute speeches as you want to and questioning. in congress there is also an honorable speaker...or presiding officer. i got elected PO in the second session...but i was a little bummed that i didnt win best PO of my house. but it was still fun to be in charge for a while! next weekend is a novice tournament in south fremont that i am BEYOND excited for! my best friend is going to be my partner and we are going to DOMINATE...i hope! so ya...i sound like a total dork talking about debate so much...but i can't help it...its so much fun...and there is alot of friends in debate!
this is my debate outfit...i am wearing black pants and black heels too...which were killing my feet by the end of the day! i think i like wearing the clothes almost as much as i like debating! hillcrest has a kind of dress...outline called hillcrest best and so we looked way good and professional! our team is HUGE and really really good. when people asked me what school i was from and i told them...they would just get super quiet and not really say anything more...we won TONS of awards today! it was lots of fun! so ya...now you all know how totally addicted i am to this!
