Chapter 60: Campaigning
My preparation was already decent, because I was nervous, and I stumbled in my thoughts, and there was no merit, so it was clear who was good and who was bad.
After the end, the audience was led by Lin Wanwan Hulai, and there was still sparse applause.
With such preparations, I felt really weak, and I returned to my seat in frustration.
It's just that it's like this in the class, what can I do next week when I go to the school leaders to participate in the election with many outstanding students.
I couldn't sit still for the whole class, and when I heard Lao Zhang say that I could go, I grabbed the things on the table and rushed out of the classroom first.
Unexpectedly, Lin Wanwan also came out with me, and she grabbed my shoulder: "This is not the end yet!" ”
I leaned on Lin Wanwan's shoulder, full of security, and pouted in frustration: "Am I doing particularly badly today..."
"Hmm...," Lin Wanwan thought for a while, "Actually, it's okay, but maybe An Qi is a little better than you, but there's still a chance!" ”
"I still feel so embarrassed!" I covered my face and buried myself in Lin Wanwan's shoulder socket.
She patted me on the shoulder: "Actually, you don't have that many audiences, and everyone quickly forgets about it." ”
I thought about it and felt very reasonable, but as soon as I met An Qi, or someone better than me, that little inferiority complex suddenly jumped up.
In the evening, I was secretly looking for a place to practice the script, so I found an open space and read it quietly.
A nice voice suddenly sounded: "The host should be louder!" ”
I looked up and exclaimed in surprise: "Senior Sister Shi An!" Long time no see! ”
Shi An's smile was still like a gardenia: "It's my third year of high school, and there are more things." ”
"yes, the third year of high school is terrifying, I feel like I have to face all kinds of pressure!" I couldn't help but smack my lips, but I was glad that I was only a freshman in high school.
Shi An walked over to me: "Actually, time passed quickly. ”
"Senior Sister Shi An..."I said my confusion, "You say, excellent people don't have any worries, don't worry about exams, don't worry about campaigning, and don't even worry about the future." ”
Shi An sat down next to me: "Hmm... Actually, no, excellent people will also have a lot of troubles, but their troubles may not be known to you. ”
I nodded, thought about it, and took out my own competition draft, wanting Shi An to help me read it.
"In fact, it mainly depends on the hosting skills, first of all, the words are clear, the voice is loud, the confidence is sufficient, and..."
That day, Shi An told me some things to pay attention to, and in addition to telling me about her previous campaign for student council president.
Sometimes I feel that excellent people are far away from me, and I always feel that we are not from the same world, but occasionally I feel that I am very happy to know them.
After chatting with Shi An, my confidence increased a lot, and when I returned to the dormitory, I saw Lin Wanwan practicing singing, and I couldn't help but come up: "What kind of program are you preparing here?" ”
Lin Wanwan took out the lyrics and showed me the lyrics: "There are you all the way." ”
"Wow, sing this? It's so sensational! I can't help but sigh, this lyric is very much in line with Lin Wanwan's state of mind.
Especially that sentence, meet you for the sake of separation.
Lin Wanwan pouted: "Because Lao Zhang said that the theme of this school celebration is to have you all the way, so this song is also dedicated to our alma mater." ”
I raised my eyebrows: "I think you can also sing this song to Yi Ran, how good, he doesn't necessarily know anyway." ”
"I think so." Liu Meiran stepped forward and echoed with a gossipy look.
Lin Wanwan pursed his lips lightly and smiled, and continued to practice singing.
For the past two days, I have been preparing a speech, and every time I promise to ask me to help me read the speech, I politely refuse.
The class seems to have already decided that the hosts this time are Xu Promise and An Qi, although they didn't say it explicitly, they all felt that I had no hope. I'm not going to let them get their way.
Two days later, the election of the host was finally ushered in.
The contest was contested in two rounds, one for boys and one for girls.
The first round of the campaign was the boys, and I was nervous for him when I watched Xu Promise prepare to go in, but he was very calm.
The election venue was in an activity classroom, where tables were put together in a row, and several judges sat there, including the person in charge of the school celebration, the principal, the director of education who had not been seen for a long time, and some teachers.
As soon as there were more people, I started to get nervous.
After promising to go in, he never came out.
An Qi also sat next to me calmly: "Nervous, right?" ”
"You... Not nervous? I watched as she was chewing bubble gum in her mouth.
An Qi shrugged his shoulders: "People as good as me and Xu Promise will not be nervous. ”
One sentence excludes me, as if she and Promise are the same kind of person.
I pursed my lips and stopped talking to her, thinking about the impromptu hosting for a while.
The door of the activity classroom opened, and several male students walked out of it, and after I saw the promise, I immediately greeted it, but I didn't expect to be preempted by An Qi: "How is it?" You'll be fine. ”
Xu Promise nodded: "It's okay." ”
Several girls from other classes also came up and asked if they would ask questions about the promise, or other questions.
Looking at them, I wanted to step forward, but I slowly retreated and sat back in my chair.
A teacher pushed open the door: "Please get ready, girls, who's going to come first?" ”
The female classmates immediately picked up their campaign drafts and looked at each other, not daring to go in, who knew that An Qi was the first to walk in, and she didn't take anything in her hand.
I was getting more and more nervous.
At this moment, Xu promised to take the water that was already half-drunk and handed it to me: "Drink the water, and your throat will not be so crowded." ”
I glanced at the mineral water: "You this... Why only half? ”
"I've drunk it!" Xu Promise looked at me with a calm and breezy look, "Disliked? ”
"Don't dislike it! How could it be! "I took the water in Xu Promise's hand, took it and drank it, don't say, my throat is really dry at this time, but this is... Indirect kissing?
I put the bottle cap on it and gave it a promise: "Thank you! ”
I looked at him and suddenly asked, "You say, what if you were selected and I didn't choose?" ”
"Then I'm not going." Promise answered without hesitation.
I was suddenly moved: "Really? ”
"When did I lie to you!" Xu Yu winked at me, "Wait a minute, you'll be the second to go in, it will be more impressive, and the more you get to the back, the more nervous you get." ”
"Good!" I nodded obediently.
The promised water and his words worked especially well for me, and I felt myself slowly calming down.
I watched An Qi walk out with a confident look, and when the teacher called for the next one, I gritted my teeth and followed in.
Seeing that the teachers were there, I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, took a deep breath, and stood in front of them.
I used all my imagination and took them as promises, and I thought, in front of him, I would be a little more relaxed.
I didn't use that formal speech anymore, but I expressed it according to what I thought.
The first is the details, bow and say hello to the teachers first, and then try to relax as much as possible during the whole process, turn on your own volume, and say what you want to express.
When the whole process is over, bow again, then say goodbye, push out of the classroom, and gently pull the door open.
When I came out, I saw that An Qi was talking to Xu Yue, I approached, it turned out that An Qi wanted to drink the water in Xu Xu's hand, and I had a little bit left.
The promise was directly refused, saying that he didn't like to drink a bottle of water with others.
I snickered, that just... Well?
