Yesterday was the Lynbrook Speech and Debate Banquet. The theme of the night was the 1920′s, but many people conveniently ignored the theme and just went for semiformal (including me). The first hour or so of the banquet was pretty boring, since all we did was play various card games in a really loud room. A certain group of people decided to exclude everyone else and play a very un-fun three person game masquerading as a four person game.
After the food was finally put out, there was a huge line for over half an hour. Some of the foods were penne with marinara sauce, rotini with pesto sauce, ravioli with alfredo sauce, and some sort of italian bread. Overall, the food was pretty good, and better than I expected for a club banquet after hearing stories of the FBLA one (they got an “all you can eat” 4-pizza buffet).
After we finished eating, the leadership team did a passing of the torch, giving gifts to the new 2009-2010 leaders. A highlight was Carl giving Belinda a scarf:
As you can see, Belinda is very short… …I read somewhere that short people are colder because they are farther from the sun… … So I got her this scarf.
We also got to see a slideshow of pictures from throughout the year, with amusing captions added in.
Finally, Alice Lin presented the book to Sean, in JPEG form. This was mostly because we ended up with too little time to have it printed and bound, so we’re giving it to him later. If you’d like an electronic copy, go to the LSD forums.

Post Updated. What’s the bread called?
The picture is so stretched out. The fork looks like not a fork.
It’s just taken at a weird angle
it’s fusili not rotini
and those are just normal breadsticks
Kind of hard to tell, as the two are very similar. Could we get a picture?
I don’t have a pic of any of the others…
Dkao: It was taken at a weird angle, then strangely sized in an attempt to keep it from taking over the post.
Uh why did you take a picture of food in the first place?
In fact, why would anyone do that?
the food was really really good x]
we’ll see him later?
