THE END.


Dear Reader,
           
    Finally, it is actually the final blog. It really is the last one (everyone whoops and hollers in the background)

              
So today was our speech choir thing (and also the ignite speeches). My block plus AMBA 155 had to perform today, and I was tired as fudge because I didn’t get to sleep the night before because of the stupid AVP for speech choir. Which I miraculously completed by the way! (though the audio didn’t render through, oh well, beggars can’t be choosy). Although there were slight hitches in the road to today I can confidently say with my chin held high that we did great, we were able to capture our audience’s attention and relay the message we were trying to get through, which was oppression, we focused on that part of Maya Angelou’s “Caged Bird” because we felt like it would bring a greater impact. Sad to say that we didn’t even get a place, which I am still bitter about, because our interpretation of the piece, I think, was very well thought out. The thing that confounded me the most though, was the winner of the AVP. It was not even technically an AVP! It was a freaking music video and it had absolutely nothing to do with the piece. The music video was shot poorly with lots of camera shake and low lighting. Why the heck did they win?! I would have understood if another one got the best AVP award, but seriously man. Seriously. All my rage. And as for our performance, even the other participating blocks said that we did an amazing job, why the heck did we not get a place?!? Seriously. I am that bitter.
              
   
  Urgh. Anyway, whatever, I have ranted. Now you all now know my thoughts about the competition.


I AM OFFICIALLY DONE WITH MY ENGLISH ENRICHMENT PROGRAM SUBJECT!!! THREE CHEERS!!!


I hope to never write to you guys again.
