Lakeland

So as many of you probably know, I'm part of the debate team. This weekend we went on an overnight trip to Lakeland Senior High School in New York. It was a suburbian High School, somewhere in the mountains, it was great for my cell phone reception, really. -_-

My partner, Ana, and I, were extremely nervous because this was our first big tournament as a team, we weren't so sure we would do well. We ended up doing just fine. We came home with a record of 5-2. Which was awesome in my opinon as a lot of the schools we went against, had awesome teams and help.

We ended up breaking to octives. We won against one of our own Newark teams from Science Park High School. It was really close though. We continued onto Quarter Finals, but we lost there.

I can't say I'm not sad, but hey, I think we did pretty well. I praise Ana alot, this was only her third tournament, and her first big tourney and she did awesome. Her speed was incredible and she really learned our case well. I think she did great and there was no way i was going to get where I did this weekend without her.

I got a third place best speaker award, which is cool I guess. But I want that first place one. I'm going to get it. I'm going to get a lot of them, just watch me. :)

I had a lot of fun. Eve, Ana, and I were in the same hotel room, which as you all already guessed was a recipe for disaster. Ana was completely traumatized. I don't blame her, poor girl. Eve and I kept throwing dirty jokes at each other, but then again, what else is knew. *goofy grin*

I did however had to put up with a lot of sexual comments from guys, that really made me want to stomp on their faces. Oh you know what I'm talking about. The whole "you and your partner are so hot, you know what I'd do? Permutation...do both" -_-

That was laaaaaaaame, and your absolute losers for coming up with debate jokes as pickup lines. Really bad pick up lines at that!

It was tough, and a lot of work, but I loved every moment of it. I want to do this for the rest of my life...I won't be able to debate forever, but I sure as hell am going to go and help others till I'm too old to leave my bed...

  1. Haha, i told you i'd get around to checking this bombass blog of yours! That tournament was one hell of a time. But don't go being modest, because let's face it, i REALLY screwed up that last round but for the most we kicked ass!!! You and Eve's "adventure" is completely scarred in my innocent brain. It's a shame how much two months with you has changed me. I hope your happy!!! The "perm" thing was BOGUS. High school kids and their bag full of hormones. lmao. Btw, it's Ana, before you think it's some idiotic stalker. haha.
