Debate JG quarter-finals yesterday, RGS against RI! We lost, sigh. But gladly not a shamed defeat, because they were strong opponents and our debate seniors were awesome. :D

I mean, visualise this: This person goes up, starts talking without a single stammer, gets POIed tons, never loses confidence, smiles nicely... They looked too scary, trust me. I think maybe it's because they've been training for very long. Like they keep the same competition team for three years, but we switch around frequently. But they debate was really enriching to watch, haha. I managed to pick up a few good tips from there and scribble down two pages of illegible(except to me of course) notes, a fairly commendable effort judging by the fact that me and Ariel ended up with no seats, and we got one only so I sat on the table and these two RI guys arrived when the 3rd prop was making his speech(wtf so late) and started talking to each other loud enough to distract anyone beside them, i.e. me. But this makes me feel so... dunno, inspired? To someday stand up there and broadcast my views to the world. Yeeeah. :D But I think we've got some already-awesome debaters *coughyenjeanandarielcough* so they will be THE FUTURE OF RGSDEBATE. Ooooh. I can only hope to improve, and try doing so for now. *determination grin* XD

Debate aside, let me reveal a horrifying, stupendously-depressing-to-me piece of news: I got below class average for English. *dies* 9/20! NINE! 70% of my class passed too... Gah. I really have to find out what's wrong and study or else I'll never cope in RGS. But the stupidest thing was, if you count all the initially correct answers I'd cancelled away, you'd get 14. :<

So last but not least, today is THE DAY. Earth Hour. Are you going to vote for Global Warming, or vote for our beloved Mother Earth? I'm voting for the latter. The choice is entirely yours, but the consequences are ours. So what will you decide? All it takes is a flick of the switch. If your lights are still on at 8.30 tonight, you've voted Global Warming. If they're off, you've voted for the Earth. Yep, you can go a step further and switch off everything else too: TV, MP3, computer... It's only until 9.30. Sixty minutes without electricity. Light a candle, talk to your family, look at the stars, go for a stroll in the park, go out and enjoy nature with your friends... so much you can do. 

And yes, the old EOC (FYI: my last-year's SL group of environmentalistic people! :D)punchline would be fairly apt to end this post.

Unless we do something, this monstrosity will not stop.
Global Warming is not just a theory.
It is reality. 
If we all do our part, we can do it. 
We will make a difference. 
We will stop Global Warming.

Act now.
