So Debating

with a capital "D"

So like I got up at 6 today to be able to get to Central at 7.10 where I saw Mr. Payce, Maheena, Liv, Liam and Jules who were all in the debating team. And Paddy didn't show up even though he lives in like Redfern and he was like the strongest debater in our team [i]by default[/i]
So anyway we got on the train and got off at Campbelltown to swap to get the train to Bowral, where we watched Rock of Love Bus on Liams laptop and tried not to fall asleep.
We got to Bowral and ate crepes which was cool, and Liam was like "omg I love Bowral its so fresh here"
and then we went to debating via. taxi, and went to this catholic school where we were up against these two weird girls and two guys. our topic was "does a good fence make a good neighbour" and we said no it didn't! and we were ok but went too short and didn't have enough points. Plus jules admittedly screwed up which brought our average score down, but meh it was cool anyway. So i was 3rd speaker and i rebutted a bit but didn't really do much and then just said basically wat liv and jules said but for some reason my team loved me and we won by a tiny margin (well it was probably more of their loss than our win but you get the point.) Then the judge there said we were good but we needed heaps more practice and refining and he was pretty funny but he had rubbery cheeks which were mesmerising.
So then we talked with Mr. payce about gossip and teachers and teacher-student relations and his work life and it was pretty cool; i thought he was more anti social.
So anyway then we went back through bowral and had overpriced coffee and pastries before we got on the train back to campbelltown and just gossed about people and it was awesome.
then when we got on the to Sydney we slept and i forgot we were on a train whilst I was asleep (for obvious reasons.)
And finally we got back and I got the tram home and it was hilarious because it was jam packed full of old biddies all going to central (no joke - it was like 150% full, and of that 150% 160% of them were old people) and then I saw them lining up at Haymarket to get the tram to central (in like a massive line so it mustve been some sort of Johnny Cash concert or something.
And then I got home but other people had mock trials and now i've been procrastinating for the last 6 hours. :D
