One more week. Just one more week. This is the week of hell if there ever was one. We The People is on Saturday. The hopes I have for my team are so low. We're so screwed. There's no way that we can beat the other schools in our district competition. So, that's disheartening. Then, finals are next week. I'm not too worried about that. They should be pretty easy. Next week should be even better than this week, to be honest. I can invoke my finals tradition of studying until 8:30 and then relaxing for the rest of the evening. I have a whole week to make it through before that, though. Homework and finishing plays and answering long objective questions is not something I look forward to (not to mention Christmas shopping...).
I honestly just can't wait until We The People is over. I feel like my team is solid, two of our testimonies are really good. We have what we need to be able to rock this competition. The other groups on my team are another matter. Some of them have their stuff together, just like my group. Some of them do not. I honestly cannot see us knocking out one of the top three other schools and making it to the state competition. Those schools have established teachers, established programs, and they have something that works. They have a pretty long history of making it to nationals. I just don't see us making it. Not with where we're at.
I'm trying to be positive for this last week. If I just give in to this week being awful, I could certainly make it worse than it might be.
"It's Christmas! Let's be glad! Even if your life's been bad, there are presents to be had!"
