debater like whoa

so everyone knew i couldn’t stay away for long. I became a debater at wu this week. i’m not really sure how it happened. one minute i was sitting on a bench talking to Steve and then he was like “Well i have to go to a forensics meeting” and then i was like “well i’ve been meaning to talk to them about joining the squad so i’ll follow you…” next thing i know BAM debater.

the process was actually much slower. i shall summarize in my acclaimed nonfiction “How to Make Jess a debater.”

1. I loved debating in high school and worked with sarah who debates at WU and always talked about how great it was.

2. When I got to college, all of my new friends were debaters and i liked them a whole lot and always hung out with them. plus peer pressure works and they all did it all the time. like whoa.

3. Ryan always tried to harass me to become a debater because he wanted a parli colleague or something and he’s ryan so i guess that’s it. he can be pretty persuasive.

4. I really missed having a family of people that claimed me. even though sometimes they don’t claim me because i’m radical. rawwwr.

5. When i realized I wasn’t qualified for the speakoff I went to go talk to them about whether i was or not and the coaches were like “no. yo’ure not. but you should debate for us come in sometime after class.”

6. It was revealed to me on a shopping adventure that S&K was dealing women’s suits!

7. I talked to Joe and brandon and they were like “you should debate.”

8. I talked to Ryan and Jackie about it and they were like “you should debate.”

9. I was sitting on a bench with steve and then decided to follow him to the meeting.

10. I talked to Kevin and he said to watch the round.

11. I watched the round and Kevin and i talked.

12. He said “money money money money money money money.” but in fewer words.

13. I said “i want to debate.”

14. I became a debater.

15. my colleague for parli is sarah and i’m supposed to have an LD Aff by break.

16. rock on.
