Speech and Drama

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.
