Answer:
*Before the Debate*
Dear Diary,
I'm feeling nervous and excited all at once! Tomorrow's debate at Zolile High School is a big deal, and I'm still preparing my arguments. I've researched and practiced, but what if I forget something or stumble over my words? I want to make a good impression and show everyone that I'm a strong and confident speaker. I hope I can stay focused and calm under pressure. Wish me luck!
*After the Debate*
Dear Diary,
Wow, it's over! I'm relieved and proud of myself. I did it! I spoke clearly and confidently, and my arguments were well-received. I could see the audience nodding and taking notes. My opponent was tough, but I held my own. I'm thrilled that our team won, but even if we hadn't, I'd still feel accomplished. I faced my fears and pushed through. Bring on the next challenge!
