being disabled (specifically having a diagnosed stutter), and being extremely extroverted and opinionated, is SO funny, because ALL of my 4 electives this year are:
Musical Theater
Speech and Debate
Student Council
and Cafeteria Aid.
NOW what do all these have in common? If you said constantly speaking, you would be right !! Especially with speech and debate, which prides itself on fluency. I may be cooked this year, but I’m cooking in style </3
ANYWAY no I am not doing more speech therapy to change how I speak, I was diagnosed at age 9 with a stutter and went thru 2 years of speech therapy, 5 years later and it has barely gotten “better”, but idrc because I make important and valid points, and just because of my disability DOES NOT mean they shouldn’t be heard </3
THIS DOES MEAN I HAVE TO EXPLAIN TO THE JUDGES AND TOURNENMENTS THTA I HAVE A DIAGNOSED STUTTER AND TO ASK THEM NOT TO TAKE OF POINTS FOR NOT BEING FLUENT </3
