State Finalist!

I actually had a student in finals in prose at the state tournament! He placed 5th overall. It was very exciting. Of course that meant we had to come to the awards ceremony instead of going to the Magic Time Machine but it was worth it. We also won the award for the most qualifications from our region so we got a big trophy for that as well. So it was a pretty exciting day overall for us. We skipped out on the rest of the awards after we waited for the Dramatic results. We waited to find out the ranking of another student that was in finals. I felt kind of bad, but it was already 10:15 and we all had not eaten dinner yet. We went to Applebee's and had dinner and now I'm exhausted. I really hate that I lose an hour tomorrow when I'm already so tired. Oh well, we're not leaving until 10:00 tomorrow. (9:00 old time) I'll try to write more later, but I'm too tired right now.
