I guess the two most important things I've learned being in humorous interpretation is that 1) Youdon't have to be considered a 'funny' person to succeed in humor and 2) Speech in general is a WHOLE LOT of practice an dedication.

When the team first had tryouts, I honestly thought that I was going to be in drama. See, I never thought in a million years I'd be picked to do humor because
I just was not funny. I would've done anything to be in humor, so I just added it to the list in :case I would've been chosen for something really crazy like debate. I learned later that that was kinda not an option... I did read them a monologue anyway. Oh God. I must've pretty awake that midnight when I snagged that monologue off the first thing that pop
ped up on google after loads and loads of crap writing because the next morning I was pretty impressed with my choice you
guys! guys. It was cute. A bit dramatic, well a girl was bitten by a raccoon, her crush ditched her for her bff and she watched them dancing together outside of a window, in a thunderstorm, with no umbrella...yeah I guess it was funny, but no!!! I was NOT FUNNY!! Because yeah. I'm just Jala. After tryouts at the next meeting, we all were going to find out which category we'd be in this season, and the coach scribbled names out on the board. First categories, and then names....At first, I didn't think I was reading the board right  Hey, I'd just broken my what, fourth pair of glasses? I blinked a few times and surely there was a mistake! Then she SAID categories and followed with the people in them. 'In humor...Jala!' I felt like I was at some sortof informal graduation. Thats how she made this whole thing seem like  Thats how she made everything seem like and I love it to this day! I adore it. At that moment, I thought I was invicible and I could not close my mouth I smiled so big and felt myself gasp. At the same time though, I wanted to cry. I was in humor. It was all too good to be true. I was going to be in humor! I'd always wondered why I wasn't in drama. And one day, I told the coach I usually practice with some stuff towards the end of the season. I went kinda like this 'You know, I always thought I'd be in drama.' I kinda chuckled. It was hard to imagine now that I'd been in humor, and if you know anything about speech, well if you know anything about anything drama and humor are opposites.
