Public speaking competition


 Today April 20, 2016. A Public speaking competition was held at Asia Pacific College's Auditorium. Now there were 30 participants during the competition but only 9 will be left for the finals. Each has their designated room to go to for the elimination round. Of course we can't leave the venue coz' we're going to be marked as absent if we do that. So while waiting for the final participant the APC speaks prepared some games related to the event. I know that everyone  was scared to be called as a representative for their block. That's why I even prayed and hoped that I will no be called. According to research that one of the most fears a person could have is the fear of Public Speaking.
Fear of public speaking is the most common of all phobias. It's a form of performance anxiety in which a person becomes very concerned that he or she will look visibly anxious, maybe even have a panic attack while speaking. Over time, people try to protect themselves by either avoiding public speaking or by struggling against speech anxiety. Now after the games. We got back into the event. Fortunately there 9 blessed, lucky speakers who surpass the elimination round. They spoke different examples regarding on the topic given to them. Some exemplified their life with their parents. Some spoke about fairy tale, past relationship etc... After all the speakers are all good since they deliver it with all their might.
