Next Year

[Theatreguy]

Hey this forum is full of alot of Kentucky stuff.... so i thought i would try something....
Whats everyone thinking about doing next year.....

Seniors what college? are you gonna do speech?
Freshman-Juniors what pieces and events?
ect. this is all about next year......
ohh and noone better steal anyones ideas for peices..... casue i will hunt u down and throw my shoe at u.....

[Interper05]

I'm a senior and am going to be on the WKU team.

[KY_Liberal]

NEXT YEAR:

Still not sure where I'm going, or if I'm doing speech. I'm going to try out for GMU's team and see if they'll take me.

Regardless, I plan on helping coach my team whenever I'm in town.

Yeah, I've become a speech junkie.

[veronica]

I am going to MSU next year. I might do speech; thier team isn't really competitive.

[poonan]

I will be a junior next year, and as of now I have no idea what any of my pieces will be. I'm thinking about Pinocchio for HI and maybe Harry Potter for duo, but nothing is official yet. Quite frankly, I am not even concerned with that right now. I still have nat quals and hopefully nationals to worry about right now.


Zach, I feel that i know u from something. Perhaps I hit you in one of my rounds throughout the year or something. Did you ever hit a Drugs Are Bad in HI, Grief-Struch in DI, Time Flies in DUO or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in DUO?

[BansheeSoccer13]

I'm a senior, and next year I'm going to WKU, and I'm doing speech!

[jman255]

Next year, I hope UTNIF will be a big help in helping me choose a winning HI, but for DUO/DUET, my brother and I are looking at Harry Potter.

[Interper05]

I am going to MSU next year. I might do speech; thier team isn't really competitive.

Is that "MSU" as in Morehead State University or Murray State University?

[Theatreguy]

Joe i dont think ive hit u we stay close to the dallas area... i talk to ur brotehr online, but i think thats about it.... Im doing Annie the Musical for Hi next year... i think
And looking at the duet ann frank or the guys... or something i dont know... i kinda want comedy..... and my prose is a big suprise.... i probley will only do it once.... but still

[vertigo_dx]

I'm a senior this year.....so next year, it's off to frigid Hanover, NH (Dartmouth College) and no speech whatsoever. Their debate team is really good, but I probably won't participate.

[veronica]

Morehead State University

[xxLusciousZechxx]

"Footloose" or "The Sound Of Music" for HI.

Maybe "The Nightmare Before Christmas" for Duet/Duo.

Nothing set in stone, though.

Not even the fact that I'll be competing next year.

::Sigh::

[poonan]

If Zech doesnt compete, then Joe doesn't compete :evil: !!! That's the truth!


By the way Zech, why wouldn't you compete next year?? Also, who would you do duo/duet with???

[Theatreguy]

why wouldnt u?

[veronica]

our ur guys duo partners?

[Andrea_Lovoll]

the sound of music as an hi...lol that's awesome....

i'm a senior...i'll be goin to OU next year (Oklahoma University) sooners baby!
and i will DEFINATELY be competing on the team
but..i have no idea what pieces i will be doing.

[MamaClaire]

HEY KY_LIBERAL!

I tried out for GMU's team in October. Peter Pober is awesome! here's my e-mail if ya wanna chat

flutetooter87@hotmail.com

[ria]

i'm a senior, totally doing WKU speech w/ryan and rachel! woot!

[jman255]

poonan is my brother and future partner. Duo partner.

Many ideas have been running through my head for HI--Ghostbusters recently came to mind...

[xxLusciousZechxx]

Jordy, love, Jeff did Ghostbusters for HI at WT Camp.

Never competed with it on the TFA circuit, though.

The reason I wouldn't compete next year is because I'm drained of it.

It's not as fun as it used to be and it costs way too much (we pay our own entry fees and all that jazz).

And if I did, I'd be a partner whore.

Shaun Meglen, John Michael Guevara, and Alyssa Linder are the people that come to mind when thinking of Duet/Duo partners for next year.

I'll qual with them all, one at a time, then just choose who I feel I could/would do best with at State.

I don't know.

Right now, my future is very much up in the air.

We'll see how things go.

[littleknown]

I'm thinking of doing Night Mother for D.I. :twisted:

[littleknown]

I'm thinking of doing Night Mother for D.I. :twisted:

i'm totally joking.....but i'm sure you knew that!

[Darooster57]

Hey Im Rachel Roos, I;m going to UT next year, but not sure i wanna compete in college. Its comsumed so much of my middle school and high school life i think it would do me good to break away...plus debate wont get me into grad school at NYU like good grades will.....i dunno maybe ill miss it and join later...? haha

now that ive told you my life story....

[veronica]

Next yr in college forensics i have narrowed it down to doing DI, DUO prose & possibly HI

[Interper05]

Next yr in college forensics i have narrowed it down to doing DI, DUO prose & possibly HI

There is no HI in college forensics. There is DI which can have both serious and humorus performances in it

[veronica]

awh.. well a dramatic impertapation with a humorous touch...seems pretty cool

[ria]

veronica, it's not the same d.i. as in high school. it's w/a black book for one thing, and it's funny or serious, whichever you want.

i'm doing...umm...let's see....everything in college. except limited prep. i still can't think on my feet.

[nick]

I am a senior...and I will probably either go to WKU or Seton Hall. I'll definitely be on the speech team. I just don't know where I am going to go.

[Sebastian]

I am a freshman, and Ill be doing Impromptu, Extemp, Congress, and maybe a declamation by Kurt Vonnegut next year.

[vertigo_dx]

Sebastian! Good to see you join :P



-(Courtney)

[Sebastian]

Haha

[dukmeister]

I am a freshman, and Ill be doing Impromptu, Extemp, Congress, and maybe a declamation by Kurt Vonnegut next year.

.. Mmmmm, Vonnegut.

Anyway, for my bit: I'm a senior, going to University of Louisville next year. 'tis been a fun one year, but I'm done with competition.

[veronica]

veronica, it's not the same d.i. as in high school. it's w/a black book for one thing, and it's funny or serious, whichever you want



Well whatever I do, it will be AWESOME!

[CorbinSpeechCrazy]

Next year I want to do even better! I was 7th place in storytelling this year at KHSSL and honestly I feel great about it due to the fact that Corbin has just begun to participate in speech in the past three years. I had an awesome story this year, Willy C. Sparks was my story and I'm so pround that through this story I made it as far as I did.

SHOUT OUT TO THE UPPER KY RIVER REGION AND CONGRATS TO KNOTT COUNTY CENTRAL[/u]

[Theatreguy]

I think im doing vagina monolouges for prose.... :idea: haha
maybe not? lol i owuld probley only do it once... cause im a boy

[AguyWHOisME]

Well extemp wasn't my favorite thing in the world so I'm dropping that and I'm pretty sure im movin to doing Duo Interp, Prose, and maybe Poetry if i can find one i like.

[ATrueSouthernBelle]

Wow. I can't believe that was my last KHSSL state tournament... {sheds a tear} But speech isn't over for me; I'm going to WKU and I'll be on their team.

[BansheeSoccer13]

I feel great about it due to the fact that Corbin has just begun to participate in speech in the past three years.

Were there only like three of you guys at state this year? If so, I think you guys were sitting right infront of us. Congrats!

Southern Belle, I'll be on WKU's team next year. Do I know you? lol I feel like I don't know anyone!

[Lord Chancellor]

SouthernBelle is Ashley Litsey, KHSSL 2005 Poetry Champion.

--BDLA

[ATrueSouthernBelle]

Thank you, Brice, for that introduction. You are my homie, and I'm gonna miss you after graduation. You'd better write me lots of emails, and I want an invitation to your and Courtney's wedding! LOL.

[ria]

oh, cool, i didn't know you were her. i'll be on western's team too. fun times!
and by the way, congrats on your win at state!

[KY Acid Trip]

Umm... i havent posted in this thread and i thought i would put out a lay out of what im planning to do nextyear

Im trying to do a variety of events but only take certain ones further than others, events im hopefully doing ATLEAST ONCE next year are:

-Storytelling ( OF COURCE )
-Duo Interp
-Broadcasting
-Poetry or Prose
-Err.. Kimmy is making me do D.I.
-POSSIBLY congress
-Solo

And that is it... Im not so sure about congress, im not up to my current events as other people are...

Wow.. i just realized im gonna be a busy busy sophmore next year.

[veronica]

I am gonna be on MSU's speech team! with my favorite Prose Champ Jennifer Morgan... oh yeah


Congrats to Bria Stacey!!

[ATrueSouthernBelle]

oh, cool, i didn't know you were her. i'll be on western's team too. fun times!
and by the way, congrats on your win at state!

Thank you! I can't wait until next year; you and I will have to hang out.

[vertigo_dx]

I want an invitation to your and Courtney's wedding! LOL.

But of course :P

[veronica]

love is in the AIR

[ATrueSouthernBelle]

I want an invitation to your and Courtney's wedding! LOL.

But of course :P

YAY! I'll make sure to get you a really good gift, like a lifetime subscription to The Economist; at least I'll know that you'll appreciate it. But just remember one thing. When you guys have kids, The Economist is not considered good bedtime reading! Just remember that.

[Lord Chancellor]

Actually, it could be. For those who find it boring.

Wait! It's the Economist--the veritable bible of Extemp. No one finds it boring.

[vertigo_dx]

Um......

*raises hand sheepishly*

Me?

...Actually, that's not entirely true. I almost like The Economist. But I try not to tell people that; it would be bad for my reputation :P

[ria]

alright...party at western! and anywhere else us cool senior speechies might be heading next year! woot!
i'm am seriously going to miss storytelling, but i really do look forward to all the new events. like poi. and ads. i'm definetaly trying those.

and thomas, tearin' it up at boone county! you listen to kimmy, you'll be an awesome competitor next year!

[Interper05]

Wow. I can't believe that was my last KHSSL state tournament... {sheds a tear} But speech isn't over for me; I'm going to WKU and I'll be on their team.

Oh you will be, Ashley? So am I. This is Ryan Brown from Rowan Co., btw. You remember me from KYNFL and KHSSL, my piece is called "So I Killed A Few People."

[ATrueSouthernBelle]

Are you serious? Next year is going to be awesome, especially if you're going to be there. Your DI was amazing.

[veronica]

State rocked... and I now know who Ryan Brown aka Interper05 is. I saw you on stage accepting a 2nd place trohpy... congrats Ryan.


Yes...Maria I will miss Storytelling, too.
You storytellers better watch out for next year bc my lil sister is gonna kick some butt!... and thomas you better too!!

[Interper05]

Thank you very much. I can't wait for next year on The Hill!!!

[KY Acid Trip]

WKU's campus is amaZing. . .

I'm thinking about attending there camp but i dont know anyone else that might be going.. :shock:

[veronica]

I like U of L 's more...


who prob will see someone you know... go ne way and make friends.

plus you are totally awesome Thomas

[ria]

alright thomas, i said this elsewhere, but i'll say it here too, so you make sure to see it: don't skip camp for a reason like that! you will recognize people once you get there, and you'll make new friends, and the western speechies will help you get the pieces you need. and it's an awesomely fun experience, and you're only a freshman, so that means you have three opportunities to go! i'm still sad that i only got to go once. so do it! it's so totally worth it.

[KY_Liberal]

I know, I'm late to the party, but...

I'm invited to the wedding too right?

Now, to Thomas:
GO TO CAMP! I went twice, both times for Extemp. It was amazing, and I met a ton of people (among them: Brice Acree, got to know der Reese and Kat better, Chad Meadows, Stephanie Hale, Laura Newton, Laura Campbell, Clara Shaw, etc. etc.).

Seriously, you should go. It gets you ready for one of your events right away, and if you really do want to work on new events it can teach them to you (do they have Congress this year? Or since Evil-O is gone, is it too? Is Chris Grove still teaching EX? Is Cortez still there? Who works where now?... just curious). Also, the lecture service from Mr Cosby is amazing. So, my advice to all under-classmen... GO! Especially if you are from Boone, lol.

Also, if you can't go to Western's due to date, go to GMU, UTNIF, or wherever else! Trust me, they are worth it!

[Interper05]

I was the only person from Rowan Co. to go to WKU's camp last summer and still had an amazingly good time. I met new people (Ria, for example) and old. Fun times, fun times.

[ria]

ah yes, great times in our lab, ryan. oh, and remember HAFTA? oh, that was great.

last year, cosby wasn't there. i'm actually holding the application for this year, and i see debate, interp, limited prep and prepared speech listed as options. ovelio (wow, i totally can't spell his name) was still there last year, though.

[littleknown]

WKU's campus is amaZing. . .

I'm thinking about attending there camp but i dont know anyone else that might be going.. :shock:

a few kids from campbell county are going to wku's camp....i think dustin caudill (storytelling guy) and amber tiemeyer (our captain) and maybe some other people too....our coach is organizing a fundraiser right now for the peeple who want to go.....to help us pay the $300 fees.....we should hook up and maybe carpool....since boone & campbell are practically neighbors...

[ria]

that's a good idea, especially with gas prices being what they are...grr...

[veronica]

:wink: car pooling rocks!!

[KY_Liberal]

That's a great idea! I'll mention it to my team. Maybe that will convince Thomas to go (you're reading this, right Thomas?)

[veronica]

oh Thomas go for me!!! Since i live too far away... :x I always miss the fun stuff!!!

[ria]

tell thomas if he doesn't go he must face the Wrath of Ria.

[veronica]

:shock: not that!!!

[ria]

yes, that. he needs to go. it will help him more now than it will if he waits. he's still new to all this, and now is when he needs to start learning, not later when he's closer to graduation.

[mintyfreshdeathbreath]

We'll make Thomas go. Don't know how, but we will.
:twisted:

Next year? I'm sticking with extemp (first true love), congress, and I want to do maybe solo or an Uh Oh (O.O).

are you serious about congress... did u actually enjoy it at state?

[mintyfreshdeathbreath]

I lub congress. Its fun'oriffic. I also like being stuck in a small room for several hours at a time with a bunch of congress hotties...

Lol. I really enjoy it. Why, didn't you?

[veronica]

Our PO was a pain in my A-hole. I don't enjoy being stuck in a room for hours on end..bored out of my mind and stressing over the next day. Although they were some hotties in my room and they lessened the bored some. :wink:

[mintyfreshdeathbreath]

Its a fellow student like bloke what we elect.

Yeah, I've never had a crap PO. I'm lucky. I guess.
