Update


1.) Alright so I was freaking out about my debate that I had to give this morning.

But it went well.

Whew!

I think we presented our argument well enough, it could have been better, and I think that the affirmative team definitely won.
But hey we did the best we could.

2.) My tonsils are currently the size of ping pong balls. I don't know why. They just swelled up last night.

And yea it was fun trying to give a speech like that....but whatever....

It's uncomfortable trying to eat :/

3.) I just got another moleskin notebook!

I love them so much....


I have my vine journal for lengthy entries, my red journal for random thoughts and poems, my lil red moleskin sketchbook for sketches (duh) and now this one.

I have no idea what to use it for but whatever. I'll find a use for it :P

4.) I just got the call saying that I'm assured my summer job at Homecrest, a cabinet making factory back home in Goshen.

Woot! Woot!


I'm gonna be back working in the same place I was last summer.

What I loved was that Kerri said that Bob, my supervisor, was glad to have me working for him again :)

It feels good when others appreciate your hard work :)

5.) I have an 8 page paper, a video project, another debate, and numerous art projects due in the next 2 weeks.

Funnnn

But yea I'll probably talk (whine) more about those as time progresses.

Dip!

Oh my good golly gracious!!

I am SO ready to be done with my debate class.




We just got done with our value debates, which she gave us like 2 weeks to go over information and what'll be expected of us, and now we've got policy debates starting next week.

WTF??

We've hardly gone over what we need to do.
We have to talk in 5 minutes intervals rather than 3.
It was hard enough coming up with 3 minutes of information and now she expects us to come up with 5.
AND
Since I'm the negative side there's not much that I can actually prepare.
I have to do my speeches impromptu.
Granted I have a partner, but still. It's not like it really helps me out any.

Grrrr

Then next week I have to prepare the other side of the argument.
That should be easier.
Just because we can have more things thought out and written down.
But the fact that this is going to be mostly impromptu for 5 minutes has me frazzled.

I DON'T WANT TO WORK ON MY DEBATE STUFF!!!

grrrr

I have this argument and debate class.
I hate it.
I don't really like the prof.
And I'm paired up with this doofus.
So I bet I'm going to have to do most of the work.
And I'm stuck with him for the next 2 debates, which are our last two.
And I don't think I have a good grade.
She doesn't have anything posted so I don't actually know.
I just donnnn't liiiike it.......

meh
