MY FIRST PUBLIC SPEECH
It was yesterday 2-sept-2006.I had to speak on any topic infront of my whole class. I prepared well for six A's of successes. It was mostly about having positive attitude. But I was quite nervous,I am late beginner, avoid most of difficult situations till it is possible. Most of speeches was on positive attitudes so after the lunch time I decided to change my topic.I wrote down my feelings about India because it was the most easy topic about which I can write much. When I was about just going to deliver my speech Govind sir who was there for our evaluation, was busy in giving some tips, so I got time for long breath and started my speech......
Good afternoon sir and friends. Today I am going to tell something about my love....(I stopped for a while) "What-What, what about!!", Sir asked me and the whole class including sir had a smile on their faces.I started again.. What I love being an Indian? The thing I like most about being an Indian is living in a cultured society.It is the most colorful and beautiful country in the whole world.It has many states and cities, each has different story to tell. I like the verity of foods, clothes and rich culture. I like the verity of foods, clothes and rich culture. Culture and traditions have the top most value for Indians. There is no other place in world but India where people use to touch the feet of their parents and elder ones. It our culture that one avoids smoking before their younger one or elder one.( Till this time I was on the right track, during these statement I saw the faces of audience to see weather they were getting me or not. But as soon as I saw towards girls I became little bit nervous I was not accepting that they were so attentive to my words.I was just lost the track for a little bit of time,and try to get thread again) As we know bangalore is cosmo-politian city. We are here from different states, speak different languages,follow different traditions, still we have a great time under same ceiling. In which country will you find a Muslim president, a Sikh Prime Minister, a Christian ruling party leader and a Hindu Vice President.
Let me share something that make me worried, it is about higher education . India needs enough universities that can not only produce bright students but also support sophisticated research in scientific and scholary field.Many IIT graduates and well trained in technology have chosen not to contribute their skills to burgeoning technology in India. Half of them leave India and most of them about 86% do not return back. I would like to have a job in India than go abroad (still I want to see the whole world.) so that I can make a positive contribution in development of my country. After the speech some drops of water was sweating out of my face. But I was quite satisfied my first debut in the field of presentation.I got a lot of confidence from my performance.
