New experience!

Hi, everyone! It has been a while. I just wanna share something. So, two days ago, I did something new in my life. This may be common to some people but this is new to me. What did I do? I participated in a public speaking competition in my campus. So few days before the competition happened, I was informed that my name was picked to be the representative of our club. I was shocked since it was so sudden. Plus, the competition will be held during the weekend, so I didn't have enough time to prepare myself. It was a dilemma for me but I chose to just go with bcs I feel like it's my responsibility and everyone is like counting on me. So, I prepared a text. Again, the next day, I was informed that there will be two rounds and the second round will be impromptu speech which means I have to give a speech spontaneously. Everything was so sudden to me. But thanks to our president, who trained me the night before the competition. I'm just so glad that I have those people who supported me all the way through. Oh, and I am qualified to the final round. But still my impromptu speech went horribly wrong. I am quite sad bcs I know I can do better than that. But since I will be competing with other speakers next month, in another campus, I'll just have to do better. I'm okay with any results bcs it's a learning process for me. Since this is my first time, I think I did great. I mean, not everyone has the courage to stand in front of everyone giving a speech. I believe practice makes everything better so, I won't give up. I will strive to be better for the final round. Thanks to my family members who supported me endlessly. That's it for today. It was quite a rough week for me but I tend to just go with it. Yes, there will always be ups and downs but it makes us stronger than before. Alhamdulillah.
