Area G3 Speech Contest

Today I am going to share you

my first experience

as contestant of

Area G3 International Speech Contest

which held on last Saturday

at Monash.

I am satisfied on my progress in this journey

so far

Until I received a message from our Area Governor

that we shall send representatives from TCTMC

to participate in the Area G3 IS & TT Contest.

I would like to say

speaking during meeting

&

speaking during contest

are 2 different environments

2 different feeling.

I never take part in any kinds of speaking contest before

except

the Poetry Readings contest in secondary school

which I didn't know why I took part. 

Therefore,

I started to craft my speech script for the contest.

Actually I have some ideas in my mind,

it just felt not matched with the contest standard.

Until few days before contest,

an idea flew into my mind

"What is Education?"
[Will tell you next time :) ]

So,

I crafted the draft,

rehearsed my speech,

took notes from other people,

edited the draft,

and rehearse again.....till the contest itself.

After that,

1 crazy fellow took risk and moving to the contest venue.

First of all,

of course greet to my fellow friends
have a fine meal
then proceed to the final memorization

When the contest chair announced my turn,
IT'S SHOW TIME.

After I gave my speech,
I was totally released.
I had given my best shot on the stage
and
I was enjoying to speak in the contest stage.
That's where I want to be.
That's where I will be.

As a sum,
it was very fun
First time contesting
even didn't get place
At least hoped to give strong impression to the audience

about me :)

Wish to have a second chance to participate in the contest.
