This house would place quotas on the number of women in the elected office.
*Sigh*
We lost. I lost. It was a problem with the set-up again. It seems that every time we lose, something is wrong with the set-up. And unfortunately, that's my duty as proposition first speaker. Maybe I'm just not picking it up fast enough.
What's done is done, I guess. I sort of expected us to go against a tough school this round though, and true to my expectations, we went against ACS(I). It wasn't a big loss at all I think, and we might have won if we didn't make some of the mistakes we did, if I didn't make some of the mistakes I did.
Things was already going wrong at the start of the day. I was almost late when I had to meet the coach since he was fetching me there, then I realised that I forgot to bring my lucky charm, the Daivd A. autograph. My team mate also forgot her lucky necklace too, lol.
Or if, just if we managed to get opposition, we would've won too.
When I went out to deliver my speech, my shoe almost got tangled with some OHP wires on the first step I took, and I almost fell.
The surprising thing was that a himbotic thought ran through my mind that split second.
"Shit, that must have looked so un-glam."
And later in the match, I knocked over a few bottles when I stood up to give POIs and dropped my bottle cap not long after.
Aiyah. Screwed up la.
Kinda disappointed that its the end of the MIDC journey already. I was starting to really enjoy debate and feel that I could actually be a debater.
Still, I'm glad we made it to Top 8.
Not bad for a first-timer, eh?
We had quite a good time with dinner today, and Swensens ice-cream for dessert. It was good i tell you. Cookie tower or something. Must try. :D
Thanks Edwin, Estee, Nick, Sonam, Amreeth and rest who came to support us today! :D
