ughg jfc im bleh righr now
i havent done contests lately.
in grade 3 i think, i did chess and i won my first game but it was because of stale mate i think
i remember feeling really proud about it and i even said, "this was the first game i ever won!" aaand my opponent looked at me like what a loser.
before then i was playing at lunch the days it took place and going to the after school club to practice. i never """"""really""""" won one. after that i just felt like a pile of crap.
i also remember going to chess one lunch and playing the clock against someone i didnt really get along with who happened to be really good... i was so nervous since i didnt want to look like a dork and my palms were sweaty and everyhting. it was also "touch move" so i just looked really shjdkh staring at the pieces. i could tell it that they were irritated to play with the spaz.
i kept making stupid moves so i wouldn't waste the time
it was silly that i was on the verge of a huge waterfall of tears.
when i got out of third grade, i didnt bother playing chess after that.

about a month ago, before testing, me and three other friends did a tag-team match for fun in chess 2v2. it was an enjoyable experience. we lost.
