NEXT TIME is a SUCCESS

                               

A STORY OF MINE
 
Never say stop, just do it…

I thought being accepted in a society with a high standard will complete my personality. I thought that I know it well.
I was third Year College then, I was also an officer of an organization. As we promised to each one of us, if we won’t have any representative in a particular competition we need to place ourselves to it, even if we don’t know it much or in other words we will venture our reputation to save the organization and to achieve its goal which is to win.
On the second day of LITVIMUSDA, at 12:35 noon our adviser saw me in the cafeteria and he told me that we don’t have a representative in extemporaneous speaking Bicol. As we promised I decided to do it for the sake of our group. Sigh. I only have two hours to prepare and to familiarize myself to what really it means. Then I went to library and search the word Extemporaneous. I tried to know it, if how can I deliver my speech and what are the points that I need to remember in order for me to articulate it coherently.
 
A loud rang started the hard beat of my heart. . Even the time ended, I still don’t know if how I can have a catchy lines and striking attack. I don’t know if how I can do it. I felt like I was from nowhere trying to find the way back home. I wanted to escape but I should do it because I am on it already. I was on the side of the stage and the Emcee called my name. My knees were trembling and I couldn’t imagine myself.

Till I found myself amidst of the crowd, but the topic which was given to me was quite confusing. I started to talk and it seemed that I can’t catch my breath and I uttered the words slowly like I am starting to learn new Words. Because of the fact that I am not ready and I was just pretending, well I was too apparent to all the audience because I stammered. What a shameful scenario.

I took my exit, even I gave at least four sentences. I know already the result that I will rank as the last. As expected I am the last placer.

Then that time I promised myself that next time I will be the champion.  Then I did. This year competition I am the champion.

I learned that in every competition there is a loser and a winner but if you are determined you’ll just need to disregard the word if only and change by next time, see, because next time so just like a hope or a dawn that gives us a brighter chance.

I also learned that quitters never win and winners never quit and you have to strive and if you loss today there is always tomorrow and you can still strive for your next objective which is to win and bring home the beckon. Another thing, Never let your fear be your weaknesses, instead make it your strength.

I also remembered the saying that “there’s always a room for improvement.”

I hope you all learned from my experience.

AN AUSPICIOUS ME...

THANK YOU and GOD BLESS! :)
