octafinals

it's nice to know that i improved from last year. one step closer, one step closer. except next year i'll have to improve three steps more to get into the final round.. :/

i was two ranks away from quarterfinals. kind of bummed, but i would've dropped then anyway. so idk what to think of that.

do wish i could've advanced in impromptu, but it just wasn't meant to be.

it was a very fun week though -- lots of laughs, curse words (lol), and amazing performances. i honestly cannot believe that there's only ONE more season left. one more nationals, and one more chance...

i feel the pressure to make my speech career something. i've only got one more chance to make it something, and it's got to be next year. no more mistakes.. i'm going to have to use everything i've learned this past week and more to make sure my senior year speech career goes with a bang..

it's nice to be home though. so nice. :)
