Speaking Corner...

MY IDOL

  On 17th November, my turn to make a speaking corner in front of  the class. Initially, I was a bit nervous waiting for my turn. Eventually, after I saw and I heard my friends present their speaking corner, my confidence started to grow. I speak to myself that I can do it. While I was considering what I would say later, suddenly our lecturer, Madam Umi was called my name and I was a bit surprised. Then, I got up from my seat and went to the front of the classroom beside Madam Umi. Before that day, I was thinking who I want to talk about because our topic for speaking corner was My Idol. After I think for a few minutes, my minds suddenly  was focused on the someone who is eligible to become my idol. So on that day, I was presented my speaking corner on talks about Dato' Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor as my idol. After I mentioned him as my idol, my classmates were cheering on me. I don't know why but I think maybe they were jealous because I take him as my idol.:) I then continued my speaking and when I was talking about the education he takes for his degree that was at Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, India. I was make mistakes in pronunciations for the word Manipal and then my friends laughed at me. They think I was funny when I wrongly said that. Anyway, I was really weak for speaking in English. Moreover, I would work harder to speak in English fluently. I would learn more to improve my language and pronunciations. Sometimes my friend would corrected for me if my pronunciations was wrong and I was thanked to them. From that, I would learn little by little. Finally, my speaking was ended with why I take Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor as my idol. This is because he inspired me to success in my life. He was work hard for 18 month training program in Russia and finally he was chosen as the prime crew member. He has made Malaysians become proud of him because he is the first Malaysian astronaut. I'm also the one who is very proud to him. After I finished my speaking my friends clapped. I was very glad because I was finished my speaking corner well.
