The author is a national-level debater with a love-hate relationship with debates.

Their biggest issue is their coach, who is incredibly skilled but extremely frustrating—oscillating between pressuring them to excel academically and win every debate, and then ghosting them if they miss a competition for urgent reasons.

They find parliamentary debate prep exhausting but still enjoy arguing, despite the stress.

  3. couldn't find enough friends irl who did debate
