A CBN - St Johns final..history repeats itself..
Early in the morning,we all reached Setapak High,met with the teachers..they said we looked stressed..heck yeah we are..we felt so down..what if we got government?WE HAD NO SPEECHES!!!Then Daddy came.My hero.To motivate us..he injected me with a little boost..but still I couldn't contemplate on our chances of winning..but what were we to do if we got gov?WE HAD NO SPEECHES!!!and yes..we did get government.
Quarantine:Me,Darsh,and Maizura hugged each other..this was it..this was the end..we were crying our eyeballs out..but then..we wanted to give St Johns a good fight..they deserve that too as they might have worked super hard on this motion..so within this one-hour quarantine..we wrote our speeches..
Debate:We debated.We gave our very best.And personally speaking,I was stunned by Drash and Maizura!!They were fantastic!!Did we actually write the speeches one hour ago??Did we actually come up with contentions at 2am??I was impressed and immensely proud of them..To Darsh and Maizura..I LOVE YOU GUYS..not forgetting Petra,,you are a very vital key in the team..with your rebuttals which actually makes sense rather than those who don't..with your effort..and commitment..and unrelenting support..Thank you dude!!I LOVE YOU TOOOOO!!!!(you might be cringing now as that might have sounded a tad bit too gay)I totally didn't expect us to do this well..St Johns did extremely well too..this was a REAL DEBATE.And to us..it didn't matter who won..because we totally pulled it off..We debated spontaneously!!No preparation whatsoever!!
"And the winning team is.................................THE GOVERNMENT!!!!"
We enveloped each other in hugs.The teachers were leaping with joy..It was a moment to remember..and Darsh really pulled it off by getting best speaker..proud of you dude!!!!This is not how the previous teams worked.They actually prepared for the debate.And our team..we used the one-hour quarantine(about 15 minutes for crying..)and we pulled it off..This is how we'll work from now on..spontaneous debates..Right after winning..we all terrorised KLCC with our mayhem..watched Transformers..hit Chillies..and sashayed the day away..being happy to the ends of the earth..but we had flaws to rectify and in fact..Mr Ramesh who criticized our team the day before called back and apologised!He said he underestimated us..but then again..like a good teacher once said.."It's always good to be the underdogs.."
