Debate Tournament

When you show up to a debate tournament dressed in the same color, and your not partners: it leads to being embarrassed. On Friday and Saturday I competed in a Debate Tournament at Dixie High School! Friday I had an oration on American Sign Language (an oration/oratory is where you stand up and give a speech to inform people.) I was pretty sure I did good, and wouldn't be able to find out until Saturday at the award ceremony. Saturday morning I was to compete in PF (Public Form where you and your partner go against two other people; our topic this year was to be aff or neg on keeping the Electoral College- you didn't know if you were doing aff or neg tell you got there) Showing up I was very nervous- tell my partner never showed! I had to drop out of the tournament because my partner decided to up and not show. Later that night I still went to the awards meeting where I found out I placed FOURTH!!!!!!! I was so happy! I made finals on my oratory! My school also placed first all together! GO DESERT HILLS DEBATE TEAM!!
