Its funny what 3 hours of sleep and competitive debate can do to you

yes. I said three hours of sleep.

Friday night was our first loss of the football season, and even worst, an away game. So what does that mean for the little flute player who is also in debate???

*In talk show host voice*
She wins a fabulous night of restlessness, followed by a 4am wake up call to go to a debate conference! *Audience sound effect here*

Lets just say, waking up at four this morning, I found myself partially delirious and walking around my kitchen singing (and I quote) "I'm stuck on Band Aid brand cause band aid's stuck on ME!"...Dont ask me why.

Anywho, We went to the debate conference today where I was chosen to do a demonstration exhibition round of debate. I thought it went okay...till we saw the observer's sheets with their opinions on the round....

"The debaters should have been better experienced", "I know more than them", and (my personal favorite), "WHAT A WASTE OF TIME!".

Funny thing though, Im not mad. Im actually pretty okay. Maybe it's the sleep deprivation.

Either way, I have to rest up. I have to get my homecoming dress tommorrow. Amazingly enough, I was voted to be a runner for the title of Homecoming Queen!

Sweet Dreams,

All I can say is, I'm glad I am not the only person to have sung a commercial jingle while in a state of delirium. My jingle of choice? Flintstones Vitamins...Wait, why am I volunteering this information?

We just had a pretty bad football loss, too, and we were on ESPN. In the first quarter, the score got up to Alabama 28, Arkansas 0. That was depressing. But in the next 2 quarters, we surprisingly caught up and tied them at 31-31. Then we got another touchdown! And they got a field goal. We were ahead 38-34! It was so awesome. Then they got a touchdown with 8 seconds left...it was so depressing...
