My first Oratory Contest !!! Diana Jazmin

When I attended the first grade on Junior High School; I had a big emotion because the subjects were the best for me and I liked them , but I had two favorite subjects History and Identity ,Culture and Society.

  Both subjects dealing with policy issues ,social security ,ambient environment ,culture,among others , and  for me this topics were amazing.

One day in the middle of the course , my history teacher made the invitation to all fist grade students to the twenty -third internal oratory contest in the junior high school.

That invitation was really exiting for me ,so without thinking about it, I raised my hand and I said " I want participate ".

The teacher asked for an applause and he wrote my name on a list.

Next day of the contest , all students who made  their registration in this participated ;each one had to select one of the twenty eight topics ,and develop it orally about 10 minutes .This topic had to have introduction ,development and conclusion.

The students who passed the first phase ,obviously would continue to the second and students had to improvise a topic about 12 minutes .

Then only four passed to the final stage : and that was a Public Debate.

I was so nervous , but fortunately I passed all the phases and I was a finalist , I was so nervous again , I wanted to run away but that moment before I passed ; my teacher told me " I trust in you, you have all to win , you can!"

And seven years later I wont the twenty third Oratory Contest in Ciudad Serdan.

Currently with this opportunity I feel  as a loving woman of the word.
