Woah...so dead tired today...but today really was fun...
Two thursdays ago, the JC1s had the first round of the Speak EZ competition, aimed at training public speaking skills. Each of us had to prepare and deliver a 2 min speech on a topic on family or total defence. Sounds like debate right??
Apparently so. Anyway I only started preparing my speech on last last thursday midnight, and presented it the following morning on the same day. Whaddya know, I actually got selected to represent the class at the semifinals.
This morning only I recieved some letter that said something like, Congrats, you're in semifinals, please turn up at LT3 at 2.00pm, on Wed 21 Feb. Which is TODAY!!!!!
Talk about last min work. I rushed through the whole morning editing and cutting my speech, I didn't even have time to rewrite it. I managed to finish on time.
Charlie from my class even folded a crane for good luck for me, then my class signed on it haha...
Today at the Semis I nearly cocked up, then I realised I couldn't win. All the other speakers seemed more charismatic and eloquent than me. But guess what?
I GOT IN AGAIN!!!
Woohoo! I'm through to the finals with 9 others from out of 800 students! That feels really good.
But I'm up in close competition. From Zhonghua, Grace Thiam and of course Geena Chat made it as well. So its down to the finals on this friday, precious little time to prepare.
So its me vs Geena vs Grace on friday. this is gonna be fun; the three of us. One with spunk, one with eloquence and the last with nothing but pure, red hot passion.
I'm also in the finals for the physics challenge also on friday, which really crams up my schedule. Now on friday I have 2 competition finals, one OGF workshop and CCA. then on Sat I still have OGF workshop 2 and fellowship and church service in the evening. And Sunday....well, I'll take it day by day
This is proof that last min work sometimes does wonders.
Tata!
