Egak!

Hullo all. It's a new month so I thought I should write a post. That and I got up early for no apparent reason so I thought I should make good use of my time.
Time. I wish I had more of it. It's been what I consider a killer week at school. 1 major paper. 2 unit tests. 2 outlines. 3 speeches (granted 2 of those are for the speech team). 1 interview for the school paper. All due this week. Yuck. I deduced that I could probably survive the week if I cut out sleeping...I haven't been very sucessful at that. I slept for almost 9 hours last night. And I still feel deprived.
Our first meet of the speech season is this Saturday in Warroad. Thankfully, it's a short bus ride. We don't leave until 8:00....ahhhh...bliss. I am still getting my speeches to the level where they are presentable. I finally got one of them down to the proper time limit. I'm at 7 minutes and 30 seconds exactly. That is absolutly perfect. It gives me some lee way if I should screw up and add seconds to my time. On the other hand, my second speech timed out at 8 minutes and 15 seconds. So I have to cut...again. gag. I realized that with double entering I will be speaking 6 times a meet. I suppose I knew that before. But it just hit me. That is a lot of speaking!
I went and watched the One Act Play sub-sections last Saturday. It was excellent. The fabulous deserving Warroad cast took 1st. place by a mile. yayness. I never thought I'd be so happy to see Warroad win something. But their cast is full of wonderful-nice people. One of their cast said they'd dedicate their win to Roseau. Haha. After they finished their time on stage our cast cheered at the top of our lungs. How ironic. Roseau and Warroad, friends? Naw, it couldn't be. ;)
Well, that is my life at the current moment. I sure reading this has brought joy to your life and health and prosperity to you and your household. :P
