title: THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE
the best day of my life in SN was actually yesterday (lol) but i couldn't blog about it cos of persuasive speech so yeah. it was during debate(one of the bi-weekly srew-ups) and worse, in front of all our juniors. but luckily i was third so that's not that bad. i was so screwed as i really had nothing on my paper when i went into the room and everything started. megan, vet and i against alibabason, way and marthamama. so screwed!(our initial thoughts) but as the debate went on, the sec ones slowly left. that felt really good cos there was so much less pressure. so finally, it was my turn. i rambled on and on about why prop's case was flawed and even crapped out a rebuttal for POI by ali. damn. the stupidest thing ever. ali: "the fact that the parents give birth to the child means that they will care enough to go for the parenting workshops!" i was like: -stone- errrrrrr....... it may be because ........ errrr...... the parents are too busy or do not....... errrrrrrr.......... believe in these workshops." CRAP! oh no. but right after the debate, claire announced: by the way, the debate goes to OPP! i was like, are we prop? oh no, we are OPP!!! so we jumped and shrieked and hugged and almost went crazy. we were overjoyed as that was our very first victory throughout my year in debate. i was so glad when shirley gave me the thumbs up sign. during debrief, claire said the most important phrase that picked me up from the dumps. she said: "sharon lim, your speech... was very good" i was almost bursting. claire had never said something like that to me ever before. the usual ones were: naive; disappointed; bad. but now, it was VERY GOOD! it totally made my day, no my LIFE! and better still, claire shouted to me something about
BEST SPEAKER! i was ... what the heck?!?!?!?!?! best speaker?!it was too much for me. but congrats to megan, vet , martha, ali, way and sweeen(for escaping)!!!!! hahahahaha!
11/04/08 will always be a day i will forever remember:D
