When someone asks me what my last name is, I say it, and then go right into spelling it. Are there people who don't have to do this?

Welcome to Mission Control Extemp Prep! #SpartanSpeech21

[Nate Ritsema @NateRitsema]

@TheMIFA Broadcasters and Extempers in both Class A and BCD should be back in the prep room no later than 12:15pm for semis postings.

Upside to running a prep room during Forensics State weekend: Nearly 30,000 steps.
Downside: I don't want to move very much the day after.

[Nate Ritsema @NateRitsema]

I think adrenaline kept the headache away all weekend. Forensics withdraw hits hard. #puremifa

[Nate Ritsema @NateRitsema]

And just like that, the last Broadcasters have left the room to practice. Congrats to ALL of the 2017 State finalists! #puremifa @TheMIFA

The deafening silence of Broadcasting prep; shattered only by the sounds of scissors against paper and footsteps out the door. #puremifa
