My prelims round of poetry was amazing. In that almost everyone else SUCKED.

Don't you just love it when you think you're not doing that great and it just turns out you have really high standards?

Good to hear. May the tsunami of fortune continue to wash away your foes in the next round.

Excellent places to finish! Especially in Poetry, which you didn't even know you were going to do until this week. :)

Wow! That's awesome, Angela! Congratulations!! :grin:
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

Thanks all.

And I'm now 95% sure I am qualified for state championships in Dramatic Interp because of my 3rd place finish.

All poems are songs lacking music, but I do like a good reading.

Also, I find that poems to me are better heard allowed than read from some internet page...post a recording :wag:
