More unhappy goodbyes.

Heya all, you been well? Good! I've been pretty well myself, thanks. Planned on posting on Monday but I've just been so busy lately and avoiding the computer at the same time! Joy!

Right, well, that Monday morning, I did have something to do, namely meet up with a friend (suprisingly, one of the two crazy girls from the online chat the other day) and, guess what, prepare debating work! As our final was the day after! Double joy! I got up late that day and just rushed completely from the moment I got up. But I ended up being the one there first by, at the very least, 20 minutes. Wheeee, I won the race. Anyway, it didn't quite go as planned... We got no work done, whatsoever in the space of 6 hours.

I HAVE EXCUSES. First, my partner's friend, Charlotte, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and she and her mother had a huge chat with my partner. I read my awesome book in the background and glared frigidly if any of the three attempted to talk to me. Later, we got distracted by awesome things online, such as Wikipedia; definitely more important than revising debating, yeah. I liked going to the bakery and getting iced fingers though. They're so tasty, it's like, one of the few things I eat. She was paying too; I'm such a gentleman. Oh and because I was rushing pretty much all morning and early daytime, it took me a little while to realise it was my friend's birthday. I can't wish him well right now so I'll do it here: have an awesome birthday! (Oh gawd, and it's another friend's birthday on Thursday!)

Moving on, next day was the final, meaning the debate team will cease to exist after this tournament, bad news! All the other members were amazed how calm and relaxed I was, to such a high extent I got accused of taking drugs, why does everyone seem to think that? Seriously. Anyways, yeah, my partner looked like she was going to explode from her nerves, even more so than the other teams. Then you'll never guess what happened, our teacher ACTUALLY gave her some pills, a kind of relaxing one, and I stood there amazed, what a guy. Giving drugs to minors, wow, I wanna grow up to be just like him now. And, as a matter of fact, she did calm down, and she grew much quieter and sleepier at the same time, all good news!

When we arrived, things went bad. Listen to this, right, every person debating got to wear their own badge but thanks to ANOTHER slip-up from our teacher, our group didn't get badges! I was shocked AND appalled at this! I LOVE badges! Instead, we got retarded little stickers that failed to stick on a persons chest! Anyway, what where was I... oh yeah, debating tourney. I was happy later on though 'cause our debating tutor, the coolest guy on the planet, showed up and encouraged us. He'd be a huge for some of the compitition too. We saw how many other debators there were and it was astounding how many turned up. I teased my debating partner and laughing saying she's the shortest one in the whole room, and I was probably right too.

Let's get on to the actual debating. First round, we came in fourth out of four teams, me and my partner, which... Isn't good. To say the least. The other teams were so brilliant and you could tell how much they practised too, I'm blaming my school's complaining over debating overlapping certain lessons which restricted us from achieving our full potential. Yep, we didn't get into the final four, obviously, BUT my partner and I did come first in one of the debates, it was awesome! Also, we got our pictures taken, certificates AND free food when we were there! Triple joy! I'm kinda sad now though, looking back, because was probably the last time I saw my debating teacher... The coolest guy on the planet... That's really bad. Awww... I'm actually going to miss him more than debating.

Now I'm all upset! If I wasn't male, I'd cry! I need to go now to listen to depressing emo music because of all this..... Kidding! I listen to depressing emo music all the time, especially when I'm happy! Byebye, you all~
