It was the best day of my life. I and my three friends
walked on to the stage shyly. I started the introduction with my legs shaking
and I made sure that I do not overdo my actions so that I would not forget my
dialogues.
After I had finished my speech, I snapped my fingers
to alert Neo to start saying the first half of the body. Neo followed my rhythm
of speaking and I realized that he too had butterflies in his stomach. Of
course Neo did not make any mistakes and that motivated the girls to speak very
well. Ruhin, who narrated the second half of the body, also spoke flawlessly.
Everybody was looking at her which I think made her a little bit shy.
The thing that helped us the most was Neo’s words
which were – “Too many actions means you will forget your words”. I am glad
that we all did very well and after our turn the girls were surprised about how
I and Neo were predicting the outcome of the other class’s speeches. We
predicted that they would forget their dialogues because of overdoing their
actions.
After the results were out, our class got to know that
we came in the first place. We shrieked with joy and I was speechless. Even our
class teacher Anushree ma'am came running into the MPH to congratulate us. It
seemed liked God was on our side.
After the school got over and I met my mother she told
me that my classmates had told her that Grade 5-E had come in first place
because of me. This was because I had included a very important point in the
beginning of my speech which said that “Instead of using chart papers and other
materials for the presentation we had instead made a PPT to save our Mother
Earth”.
This was a huge victory for us!
