Today was a very long day, but I got to spend a good majority of doing something that I absolutely love. Judging, I don't know why but I really like doing it. Even when I get no more than a twenty minute break between rounds and there is no free lunch and the pay isn't the best ever, I love it. I even love it when I am the squirrel judge on a panel and one of the judges on the panel begins to discuss how they thought the round went and I am thinking, "blech, that kid was terrible!" The only thing I feel bad about though, I must admit is judging people I know. Not because I am a biased judge and will automatically let friends win, but because I force them to earn my vote.
One of the reason I was so willing to go and judge today besides the fact that I was getting to do something I love, was that it was an important tournament. I got to judge regionals for 5A! I still am kind of shocked that I was able to judge for such an important tournament however I am stoked because I get to put it on future judging resumes and things of that matter! I love judging. And now I can officially say, I have decided on whether or not 6 different students get to compete at state. And I am perfectly fine with how I judged.
Haha I love the title :)
