surprise surprise

Yesterday was a very eventful day for me. Apart from debate as well

two things happened, which involved the same person. The first, made me think of 3 months ago. the latter, made me realise i could get through this. Kinda weird tho. I thought the complete opposite would happen..but no. I expected my heart to jump out anytime and beat like crazy. But no. It made me happy, still, but i guess it really is time to move on. There is nothing left but a platonic friendship.


see??? i told you everything happens for a reason.

What happened : got reason. lol.

the event yesterday : i see clearly how and why i should move on. =)

NEWS UPDATE : SSI IS NOT GOING AGAINST EC


sucks right??? damn..now they have to go against sdj..which they already defeated in the 1/4 finals. this is gonna be one hell of a boring debate to watch wei. coz we already know who will win. haha. no offence tho. but..who knows..maybe there wud be an unexpected surprise..like..sdj winning? fat chance but we cant be too sure now, huh? =)

we get what we deserve

Debate semi-finals 2008.

Convent jb vs. SSI.

Motion : This house believes that moral values are better caught than taught


It was a good debate to me. Not ridiculous like the others before. I enjoyed listening to the opponents and our team as well. From ssi there were the three great debaters(hehe), lisa, naqi and jaslyn, whom all of em i know. We got the opposition, which to us seemed like it made enuff sense. We didnt mind both sides but personally i do prefer the government. Coz i can relate to it well enuff.

I was the 1st speaker for our team. It really is nervewrecking. Haih. Sometimes i question myself if debate was truly where i belonged. And that is only being the 1st speaker. I cant imagine taking the role of 2nd, or even worse, 3rd.

It started quite late as the quarantine started late coz ssi was late. heh.

anywho, the crowd was damn huge. Bigger than during the quarter finals that is. Oh yeah, the sigs debaters managed to make it.

As the debate went on, ssi definitely did a great job. They were passionate bout it, of course. Like jaslyn said b4, she cant imagine not debating. They have done it for like..what? 3 years now? Since i do know all three of em, i do know that debate is something which they do because they love it, and not only for the sake of representing their school.

SSI won. Truth to say, i knew it would turn out that way even before the debate began. (i have this instinct thing going on). im not saying that convent isnt great, 'course we are! But..maybe it is time for us to just..accept our fate and step down to let those who deserve it get to where they wanna be.

At the finals, SSI will most probably, or definitely meet EC again. If im not mistaken, for the past 3 years they have lost to ec. So i hope that this time, since they made it to the finals, they would break the tradition and emerge triumphantly. I dont knw why im siding with SSI but i just think i would like to see them win for a change.

Im proud to call myself a Convent debater. I asked my sister to come and watch as i had a feeling this were to be my last debate in a very very long time. She really is my true supporter. Was glad having her there. She even mingled with my ridiculous frens aka cheryl, joey, ilham and kareema. hahahaa...

All in all, i have no regrets whatsoever coz i know i did the best i could, just as i have planned. Everything happens for a reason and so i know there is something that would come out of this.


GOOD LUCK SSI DEBATERS! JUST REMEMBER, U HAVE A SUPPORTER RIGHT HERE. =)
