Motivational Speech

I was blown away by a motivational speech that was held in the school hall on Friday. The speech was given out by a former head prefect who had dedicated so much to the school in every possible chances that she had encountered. She advised us to 'Explore' every single thing in this world whenever things come to us naturally. If it doesn't, it is rational for us to go seek it for our own benefits. She used all her knowledge in high school to survive in her college life. The survival that she was saying was in a way that, she did many events planning, entered marathons, goes to camp, learn to become a leader, etc etc. She was a bright student in her high school years based on everything she told us about herself. She was a girl who every girl wished to be. But something else caught my attention. She mentioned to us that each and everyone of us are different. We should never copy anyone because we are individuals which differ from everyone in everything. In that vivid point, I finally realized that I couldn't try to become like someone but to create that someone in myself and be me. That was the answer to it all.

I thought about a whole lot of stuff after that from every possible angles that I could think of. I was a musician, I wanted to go for a music camp. One that is more like camp rock. Besides that, I love doing volunteering work and I have never experience such things. Therefore, I trust myself to take the challenge of giving up to the society. I would rather be someone beneficial to others rather than a nuisance. Next, I was a person who thinks language is important. I would love to enhance my knowledge in English. Thus, I was thinking of joining competitions that may bring me one step ahead to my goal. Other than that, I love going for homestay programmes because it is the perfect time to socialize with people on the other side of the world about their cultures, traditions and country. I had gone once to a country where it was hard to speak. I did caught their language from the beginning of the year but explaining to them about my country was a bit off for me. Besides, I was quite young during that time.

I just hope these opportunities would be up for grabs soon enough. I just wish my life would be much more adventurous with all the brilliant stuff coming about. I will explore and I will try and seek new things in my life.

Yours truly,
