Great event! Toastmasters public speaking

It is a sub organization of that International one. And it is like a wrap up event for the whole school year.

There were prepared speech given from the former members, and there are table talk given by random audience. I was chosen, and my topic is this:

I have to say I panicked a bit, I didn\’t start my speech very well and got a bit off topic at the beginning, and after that panic and nervousness left, my mind got more clear and I seemed to make a fairly good point~

My point was that, towards toxic people and things, we should just say goodbye, instead of keeping them in our lives. And towards good energy, we should say \’freut mich\’, witch is what you greet people when you first met.

I am impressed by other speakers as well, they all made great speeches! And what I learned the most is that, it is not that difficult! Public speaking used to be a thing to me, I am afraid of it and thought it was very difficult, but after this event I realized that it is the same for everyone. And I think I did a good job in this one already. Needs improvement, yes, but good enough. I wasn\’t as afraid as I thought I would be, and I was actually pretty confident in making eye contact and telling little jokes.

I love it so much! Will definitely join more event like this next year. Many thanks.
