I think that every single person in High School should be on a speech team. The possiblities and opportunities are endless. Not only do you get to write your own material/perform published material for competition, not ONLY does it give many non-athletic folk a chance to branch out and try something they're good at (I'm very much not athletic.....haha) but you also meet people that you'd of never met in real life--people just like you, who like the same stuff, and are generally on the same brain-level.
Take for instance this thought--My dearest best friend Chauncey and I found a fellow Nebraska, USA researcher here on h2g2...after some poking and prodding, we found out that he's also on a speech team--leaving us a perfect opportunity to meet eachother; at a speech meet. Now, chauncey and I have been ranting and complaining about living in the US and being merely 16, because we can't go to any of the London Meet-Ups, regardless of how much we want to...So this was a cool experience; our first official 'meet-up' w/ an h2g2 researcher. In fact, that's precisely how we found eachother--we carried along our copies of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and spotted the books
Speech is life. From December till May, I live, sleep, eat, and breathe speech. Do I do it for the medals? Yeah...do I do it for the experience? Yeah...do I do it for the college/scholarship opportunities? of course...Do I do it for the cool people and friendships I'm going to aquire? Definitely. Speech kicks butt
Oh...and chauncey? I can't wait for District NFL this year Just so long as we don't eat at that STUPID philly restauraunt again!
