INTER HIGH SCHOOL PUBLIC SPEAKING COMPETITION

At first, this Inter high school public speaking competition was quite boring, why? First, most of the students waited about an hour at the Asia Pacific College's Auditorium and yet the competition started after an hour. Anyway, the competition was tough for the high school students and different schools competed. The high school students told their own stories about their best and worst times. All of their stories was very touching for most of us, the audiences. Because they really know what is the importance of TIME not just in their lives but also the lives of other people. 

I was very touched when one of the participants told us that he thought he could never walk again because of what happened on his ankle, I was amazed to him because he didn't give up and he did his best not just for himself but also for his family. I know that all of the participant's family and friends are very proud of them because they still keep on having faith in God that they can achieve there goal, maybe not now but sooner or later they will. 

Going back to the topic, the competition taught me that I should conquer my fears and not to waste my time, like by not wasting the opportunity that the Lord is already giving me. Because at some point that opportunity will be gone and maybe I cannot take that opportunity in the future. Time is precious, so you should know that when you have an opportunity to do something, go for it.

In the end, the competition was enjoyable and I learned many things from it. I am thankful for all the things that I learned today. I know that someday I will conquer my fear and face my problems like all the participants did.
