NFA (National Forensics Association)

This year I joined the speech team. It’s a lot of fun and surprisingly I don’t suck at it!! I’m actually pretty good and as the season goes on I am learning and improving. I really enjoy traveling and meeting new people from schools all over the country. This week is the NFA (National Forensics Association) competition. It’s the BIG one. Hundreds of schools from all over the country travel to one place to compete against each other. There are around 300 people in each event! This year NFA is in Spring Field, Missouri at Missouri State University. This competition is five days long… which means I get five days of vacation time from classes. YYYYAAAAYYYYY!!!! Well, it’s really not a vacation because we have rounds from about 8am to 8 or 9pm. 15 hour days are sssssssssoooooo FUN!! Lol but it is worth it. Northwood has a great team and this year we have a really good chance at coming in at the top 3 in our division. I can see it now Northwood University’s speech team ranked “number ONE” among all the small school in the country. I’m thrilled to see how everything will work out. We find out on Monday so keep us in your prayers and I’ll keep you posted.
