HA! Nice one, Jolly, Hammurabi :)

But seriously, that's the thing - she doesn't suck at all. She's a brilliant speaker. I think she deserved a better mark than me - and everybody else in the class agrees that her speech was awesome. I don't want her to feel hopeless about her HSC chances because I beat her on a fluke for a speech she worked really hard on.

BTW I appreciate the advice, everybody. :)
