So I have finally finished my speech for Speech and Drama. So excited to start the season I mean I look forward to it all year long. This will be third year in Speech and Drama and I have loved every I have been in it. My Freshman year I participated in Expository Speaking. I did my speech on Organ Donation. I loved my speech that year and I guess so did the judges because I made it to State! When I got to state I did not make it to the second round. In one of my rounds I actually had a coughing attack. It was so bad I actually had tears coming down my face. But when you are in the middle of a speech you can not stop the timer and restart because as soon as you stop the timer you are done and there is no starting over. Ya sucks right?!? Especially since my cousin and my sister came to see me. Oh well that is done and over with now.
Last year I decided to change it up and so I did Humorous Duo with a friend of mine. We were awful we didn't even make it to finals. I don't know what possessed me to want to do drama when I am good at speech. But it was an awful choice and I am glad I am going back to speech this year I have missed it a lot.
So hopefully this year goes better than my freshman year when I had the coughing attack at state. Probably one of the worst things that could ever happen. It just sucks to make it that far and then just choke literally haha.
I don’t think people realize how big a deal Speech and Drama is for us. I mean it is always such a huge deal when the basketball team makes it to state. But who cares who makes it to state for Speech and Drama. Everyone in Culbertson would go and see the basketball team. But they don’t even care about Speech and Drama or Cross Country. Our Cross Country team made it to state this year and won. And most people didn’t even give a crap. Its things like that that really get to me. It’s always like if you are not in basketball well then you don’t mean crap to anyone. People don’t understand that we work all year on our Speech and Drama pieces. But whatever besides that we are suppose to have our very first Speech and Drama meet of the season on Saturday, however we are being hit with a huge blizzard that is beginning today and will last all weekend so I am praying it doesn’t affect our meet.
I feel your heartbeat to the beat of the drums. Oh what a shame that you came here with someone. Lets make the most of the night like we are going to die young. Haha those are the song lyrics I am listening to right now I kinda just want to get up and dance. But at the same time I am sick so I can’t sing and dance which isn’t fun so boo. I swear I listen to this song everyday I guess you could say it is my pump up song. Oh and for all for all of you who don’t know what this awesome song is. It is by the one and the only Ke$ha. It is her new hit Die Young. So again it is amazing you all should definitely listen to it. So yesterday I had a pretty good day and I finally conquered one of my fears. I finally played piano and sang at the same time for the first time ever last night at my youth group. So wooo!! So excited I finally did that. It felt great and I didn’t even mess up one note so it was perfect for the most part. I played and sang Turning Tables and played piano with it. Then I sang the song Anyway by Martina McBride with a CD. So with all of that being said yesterday was a pretty good and now I am going to try and not talk for a while so I can recover and get my voice back. Haha like that is going to last I couldn’t stop talking if I tried. Oh well I will give it my best.
Hey everyone I’m back. So I have been thinking more and more about college. Yes, I know it isn’t for a while yet but still I want to be prepared. I can’t wait for college I mean I don’t know how much more of high school I can take. Everyone says oh well you are going to regret saying that well I don’t think so. There is no way in heck I am going to miss this place. Maybe that’s why I keep thinking of college because I am just tired of the drama and I can’t wait to leave. Thank God it is only one more year. Because I can’t take much longer, the people are getting to me. I guess what I am trying to say is I have senioritis BAD. But besides that Go Minot Beavers!
So the Minot music Festival was great. It is so much different to be in a big choir like that compared to the choir I normally am in. We went to a concert that the college put on. There was one group that was amazing. It was a group of strings with a girl singing over the top of them. I had never heard anything more beautiful in my life. I can remember just sitting on the edge of my seat and at the end of the song I remember crying. I kept thinking that in a couple years that could be me singing on that stage singing in the college choir.
I love Minot and practically have my heart set on it for college. Hopefully I can go to Minot because I can’t think of anywhere else I would rather go. So with that said Go Beavers!
