Speech and Debate-NOT WHAT IT SEEMS
I am on the Speech and Debate team at my school, and whenever people hear that, its immediately "EW" or "I debated in my high school's team"
NO.
Its not decathalon no mo'!
Its an intricate art!
Debate, is too complex for me to explain.
But I can explain the Speech half.
There are persuasive speeches and interpretations.
Persuasive speeches are about issues in the world/local community that the world/you needs to fix and how to fix it.
Interpretations:
Dramatic-a DRAMATIC piece (movie, play, story, scripted thing) that is cut to 10 mins and done in the performer's own interpretation of it.
The same goes for Humorous.
Duo- is the same except with two people. Plus, they cannot look or touch each other.
Then, Thematic is a collection of scripts to support a similar theme.
Like, I had one about potatoes.
Didn't do well.
Then there is Oratorical...
It is a speech previously made to the public by a public figure.
Then, prose/poetry which is an original, unpublished script.
Suck a 'Tac.
Gosh, I'm so Modest!
My pic was so old, so I sifted through my recent Nikon folders, and first one I found is the one I used, and I realized-I'm so pretty!!!! But it is a lot of work on the camera's part... : D

"We're in the Nazi killin' business and cousin, business is a-boomin'."
I saw Inglorious Basterds a while back (long time ago) with Poppy, and I loved it!
Sure, the movie was two and a half hours long and almost all in German and French, but it ROCKED!
Tarantino does not disappoint!
It wasn't as good as the Kill Bills or and didn't reach the memorable caliber as Pulp Fiction and Res. Dogs, but by GOLLY it was good!
It was very Tarantino-y, but it was also cinematic.
Very movie-like.
Authentic...ish.
Definitely one I want to add to my enormous movie collection.
Plus, it fed my monster of a deep interest in WWII.
And experiencing the French and German languages for that 2.5 hours opened a whole new world for me.
Languages are cool!
Now, I really want to speak French and German!
It was really cool to see Brad Pitt in a Tarantino.
What was even cooler to see was Tarantino's alternate ending to WWII.
Not to mention see that SOB Hitler get shot a couple hundred times then blown up.
So, overall kinda good movie.
Ode to My Bagel
Up until recently, I haven't had a bagel in over a year!
I like bagels.
Of course, with my picky eating I only like plain white bagels (I'm a bagel racist).
I usually cover the top of the open bagel halves with shredded cheese and stick it in the microwave until the cheese melts.
It amazingly delicious.
Well, I didn't have it for over a year because of the internal body explosion I had around a year ago that only affected my pancreas -_-".
I finally remembered how much I frickin' love bagels and nabbed some at the grocery store.
I enjoyed my BAGEL.
Brief
SO, I have this list.
Its a list of things that I need to blog about.
Its on my white board.
That I never use.
Hmmm...
Well, I added to this list over and over and over and now I have all this crap I need to write about.
Everyday I'd look at it and just sigh and procrastinate more and more.
Procrastination is great with the help from Stumble (http://www.stumbleupon.com/home)
I've been incredibly busy, but I have reserved this very empty Monday evening to update the crap out of this frickin' blog!
So, sit back, relax, pop a 'Tac and enjoy the following random of my day-to-day life.
(((((
Here's the stuff that was on the list, but didn't make the final cut-
"Sudoku->Free Time"
"Deviant Art"
"Having a Life V Wanting to Have a Life V NOT Wanting a Life"
)))))
