[Natalie]

Saw Cinderella with my youngest niece. We had fun. Good night!

[Ruth]

Oh cool! Sounds like fun! :D
Say, have any of you guys heard of a play called Smith? It's got something to do with the army or something I think, but I was wondering if any of you knew the plot

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

I don't think so...

[Ruth]

Dang it. Okay thanks anyway lol. It's just the play place I did Alice at is gonna do that next and I was trying to find out what it was about lol.

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

Ah, okay! Nice! :) So, auditions for our musical were today...I'm Assistant Stage Managing!!! So excited!

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

No problem, H99! Doing alright! How are tournaments?

Awesome!!! Oh, yes, I'm all Speech (we're actually doing PF in class right now and I almost cried during CX :P). The season's been kind of up and down...mostly ALMOST breaking, but never quite enough, although I placed 5th at the last tournament in HI, and I've dabbled in Storytelling. Keep me updated. :)

[Natalie]

Good night!

[Ruth]

winning! :D:D:D:D:D:D

[Natalie]

Hello. How is everyone's day?

[Ruth]

Hey Natalie! It's been good so far! hbu?

[Natalie]

Me too. We are staying home to keep my youngest nephew. BTW: I have 100+ comments in this group as of today. Yay!

I think so...it's team debate as well. The structure is:
4 minute constructive
4 minute constructive
CX
Rebuttal (I think that's the correct term?)
Rebuttal
CX

Grand Crossfire
Final Focus

Ugh, I know!!!!!!! Usually, it's a matter of Speaker Points.

Usually it is...unless you do Duo Interp, which is a partner event where you act 10 minutes without making eye contact with or touching your partner. Look them up on YouTube. And Humorous Interp or HI, my event (start with Lindsey White :) ).

Congrats! :)

[Natalie]

@Leah: Thanks! I realize it's not a big deal. but it';s still an accomplishment.

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

Very true...but Nationals pieces...*dramatic sigh* they're wonderful!!! Perhaps not the quality that most local tournaments compete on, but they're what everyone aspires to be.

Grand crossfire is when all of the debaters get a chance to ask/answer questions at once, rather than one debater from each team.

Speaker points can be the devil can't they? :)

[Natalie]

I might take a debate course in college at some point. I would also get credit of some sort, which is always good.

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

It'd be great experience. And probably a lot of fun!

[Natalie]

@Leah: Yeah.
I will be back tomorrow.

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

Hey! How is everyone???

[Natalie]

Just finished school for the semester today. I am so relieved. How is everyone's holiday shopping going?

[Ruth]

Haha I haven't gotten any Christmas shopping done yet I'm sorry to say. I don't know if I will- I just totally suck at knowing what to get people.
What about you guts? Lol

[Ruth]

[Natalie]

Hello! We are probably starting ours in a little bit today.

[Ruth]

I'm afraid you are sadly mistaken ;)

And cool :D hope you can find everything you're looking for lol :D

Idk what to even think about getting lol

[Leah, I'm HI-larious! (Head Mod)]

We've got one more week until Christmas break, and I. CAN'T. WAIT!

[Natalie]

We made some progress. We still have a decent amount to do, though.

[Ruth]

I know right? Well, the part about school being out lol- Christmas is just kind of meh for me lol. But thankfully we're getting to stay home this Christmas, so maybe there's a slight chance it'll be really fun lol :D

At least you got some of it done lol :D
