At 1:35 what is the tiktok name for that so I can check it out! Also I was so sad that you guys didn’t film the first couple of rounds. Would really like to see the other people in action when debating.

Congrats on your win! I’m a rising freshman and I love debating but I’m not sure how to approach during high school. Can you post a video or let me know personally how you started your journey through it. 💗💗

[kaihwaa]

valley high school was a very confusing school to navigate LOL, and the arena was the worst place to prep imo😭😭

Third time watching this; I do every time I have a debate tournament 😆
