Club Speech Contest
2 weeks ago, I was jotting down points on my laptop during TLI2, nothing turns up
Last week, I was still struggling with a title for my speech
Last night, I'm having trouble getting the pieces of idea together
I tell myself, just go up there and talk for 5~7 minutes. Just like any other 1st timer in a speech contest.
But in the morning, my mentor have a look at my speech and tell me...I can make it. He gave me some pointers, and guide me in the delivery.
Just a few hours ago, I went up the stage and touched the hearts of the audience. When I'm sitting there listening to the other contestants "I tell myself, I'll be going to the Area Contest!"
I even called up my mentor and tell him the good news. Sadly, when the results were announced, I only came 2nd. WHY WHY WHY??? I dressed smart,the delivery is smooth, and it touches people's heart. But why did I lose out so easily? And then I got to know that the expression on my face is all being hidden under the shadow. Damn, the stage "feng shui" was just not right for me.
3 hours after the competition, now...I'm listening to Watson Russell's "Faith Of The Heart" to soothe my dissatisfaction. Will I quit? Hell no! I'll move on and complete my assignments and one day....I'll certainly reach the top. Congratulation to the winners, and I got faith...that I'll go wherever my heart and will takes me --- Reaching for SOARING heights.
