OI SEMIS;FINALS

[phillyone]

well, since duo is doing it...

who do you think will be in semis/finals of CFL nationals?

best prose/ poetry of the year?

[phillyone]

alex weisman(i know, alex, but you would have...I'll see you in NFL finals my man)

Monique Robinson

MIchael Jones

Shannon Mitchell

Liam Higgins

Reginald Baptiste

Ashley Litsey

(this is basically emory finals and other people i've seen...i'm not really sure if they all qualified though....how about we post qualifiers from our districts)

[Josiahzacks]

Liam Higgins
Monique Robinson
Merideth Teasdale
Joshua Isaacs (Hey, if I can do it last year, I might as well be able to do it this year)
Teddy Creccalious (sp?- he's from boston in any case)
Celeste Huey

I don't get to see much OI action up here- mostly boston and NY, but then again boston and ny OI kick ***, so we'll see.

[phillyone]

merideth and celeste sound very familiar...i wish i could remeber everything ive seen, but i havent done OI since emory (been in duo from harvard on, time to get back in the groove)

[Ryan]

Reginald Baptiste
I don't think that Reginald qualled in anything. Too bad, I heard that his poetry rocks.

[phillyone]

i competed with him in semis and finals at emory....i thought he was good....if anything, it was the jumpiness of his poetry that turned judges off...too random to follow for some people, i guess

[reins485]

I am on Michael Jones's team and we never go to CFLs so he will not be there. However, he will be going to NFLs in duo.
Alex

[phillyone]

that's a shame, he's very talented...what's his duo

[reins485]

Micheal is doing Jane's Park. The reason we don't go to CFL is our graduation is always falls on the same weekend.

[phillyone]

good reason for sure

[JoeleDaCuban]

Well... I just started doing OI late this year. I think that I might have a chance in being in those elite six. Afterall, I made it to nationals in the same district as Monique, and Alex Weisman. Yeah... I'm confident enough to say that I can make it.... yeah....

[Ryan]

You've the got potential Joele and I hope that you shine this year in Boston. If not, then there's always next year...

i made it to Semis at Emory...but i don't think you were in my round =|

[phillyone]

i was doing stuck in neutral, if thats any help

[aaron]

:shock: I just realized I got to watch you in your quarterfinal round of OI at Emory. You were really awesome. I had seen your piece performed in DI alot so it was nice to see it performed a little bit differently. I definetly had you and my teammate, whom I was suppporting (Mauricus Lofton: he did the church-type poetry) as the top 2 in the round. See you at CFL, I'll be in Dramatic Performance and Mauricus will be there in OI again if you remember him. (I'm guessing you made it?)

hmmm...doesn't ring a beLL, sorry :( . I did "Interview With A Not-Poem" I was in the other Semis room with MichaeL Jones and ALex Weisman. Too bad I didn't get to watch the FinaLs round of OI at the Emory tournament. Oh well, maybe i'LL see you perform at CFL Nats! Wait..I don't know you and i don't know wut you look like. LoLz "Hi! I'm Rowena. I'm from Lake HighLand Prep in OrLando, FL. I do OI." LoLz I hope I get to meet you Mr. phillyone! :wink:

Dan!!!!!!! Hi!!!!!!!

[phillyone]

ah, mauricus was very very good....i enjoyed his poetry...i think it was his poetry...very much. wish him luck for me.

i actually didnt know stuck in neutral was being performed as a DI until the actual NFL tournament...the funny thing about that prose was that i hadnt done it since nov 22, and i was supposed to do another prose, but at 2am, no lie, the night before the tournament, my coach asked to hear both proses and told me to do the old one...

well, i should be doing something different for CFLs but if i dont get it ready in time then S I N it will be.....until then, take care

[Josiahzacks]

someone in my octo at cfl last year did stuck in neutral. I think he ran into trouble b/c the piece was too performance oriented for the cfl judges.

[OneMagicDay]

Hey there, I'm from Minnesota, I was in Alex and Monique's final at the Pinecrest tournament in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Anyway, they're both wonderful, and good luck to all! Seeya in good ol Boston Mass:).

[Josiahzacks]

100 points to me for accuratly picking half of the CFL final round.
