Debate.. again….
January 16, 2008
the 1st MDC was a relief, after struggling the previous year from fluctuating performances ( Square OFF, NDC ) i must say the training we had with sharms and lel proved fruitful, all the insight, the tips, the exchanges, they’ve definitely borrowed down to the sub-conscious and given us a better handling at how we look at debates.
sometimes, its not wise to overthink, i had a notion before that if i could just handle the principle behind my speech i could well transform it to better ones, truth is, i think its not at all about understanding but more of feeling, not being too conscious, and just letting Passion run through your intuition, im still no good, i refuse to stop here..
and as luck would find it, i am pushed to even greater lengths, we reached the Finals, beat really good teams along the way ( which is in no way an affirmation, it just means we had a little bit of luck, and perhaps we wanted it more ) but still fell short of my 1st….
sigh… i dont agree with curses… but i sure dont find it funny to be striking out close 3 times… geesh..
ehehe..
well… i hope the next tournament gives me another chance..
as with every debate, there are no guarantees, only the resolve to never surrender.
