Speak!



Weather: Sunny
Level of Happiness: 73%

9 Nov was the public speaking competition organised by TARC with the collaboration of CIMB bank and I was lucky to be one of the contestants there. When I was heading to DKE, i saw many of the banners hanging around and I knew that the public speaking was not merely a competition, but exhibiting the image of TAR College to the outsiders. Many of the VIPs were there, including the CIMB representative, Head from Ericon language center, Head of School, Head of Division and other VIPs from the college that I haven’t seen before.

When i first stepped into the hall, i saw some of contestants there wearing extremely formal, with a coat and tie. It caused me to feel even more nervous at the moment. Anyway, i kept reminding myself not to be scared by their exteriority.

The public speaking competition took around one hour. Unfortunately, I only managed to get the first runner-up. Thus, the purchase of my DSLR has to be postponed!!! Anyway I’ll appreciate this opportunity given to me and I felt so contented that I had made a right decision. (Actually I didn’t participate at the beginning as I skipped the classes for two times and I was totally unaware about the competition. Thanks to Yee Lin for informing me^^ I decided to contact my tutor in the last minute to participate~)




That’s all for today and the next post will be very soon~
