Speech Choir

Have you ever tried or experience to join in speech choir competition? Well if you don’t know try to join speech choir in your community because if you don’t, you miss a part of your childhood or miss the fun that you should have experience.

I’m going to tell you what is my experienced in speech choir competition.

The story begun when my professor in college tell us that our finals would be the speech choir competition, first my expression is very angry and sad because I don’t like be a part of a group not because I’m anti –social but because of I don’t really like it especially when you are going to perform in front of many people that you don’t know, performing in front of the people is one of the things I really don’t like to do because I may not be able to perform well. The practice continues even though I don’t like it, time passes, some of my classmate are not participating and my leader are going crazy because of the my classmate, even though there is ups and downs we are always happy and not giving up.

When the final day of completion arrives me and my classmates are nervous even they don’t show it I feel it even I am nervous, when the host called our group were all very nervous and excited, when we execute our performance I feel relief and happy that the performance is indeed worth it, although we don’t won the completion I can say that it is very exciting and unforgettable thing that happened in my teenage life.

Media literacy is very crucial to everyone to know because of the ever-changing electric environment and communication with the large amount that surrounds us

To become a responsible citizen we should always exercise and develop our expertise in new technology so that we know what is happening to our surrounding and know how it affect us.

Today’s information and entertainment technologies connect to us through influential combination of words, images, and sounds. That we need to develop to a wider set of literacy skills helping us to both understand the messages we receive and effectively use these tools to design and distribute our own messages. The set of skills required to be a literate in media are critical thinking skills that empower us as we make decisions, whether in the classroom, the living room, the workplace, the boardroom, or the voting booth.

Media literacy can also help youth and adults by developing critical thinking, understand how media molds our culture and society, help us to know what is bias and lies, discover the parts of the story that are not being told to us, and help us to evaluate and create our own thoughts

I as a student and a concern citizen will take full responsible to do what is best to my country and will not turn my back against it.

The Phantom of the Opera

The phantom of the opera is about a talented man with a disfigured face and his love for the beautiful girl named daae and his straggles on his life. With a very good and amazing vocalization and orchestra that is very entertaining

I’ll be telling you the summary of the phantom of the opera. I’m sorry to those who don’t like to spoil.

Our story begins with Opera Populaire's manager, Lefevre, leaving. His successors, Andre and Firmin, take over the opera, and bring with them their new patron, le Victome Raoul de Changy. To celebrate their new managers, the opera throws a gala, at which the leading diva refuses to perform, due to the mysterious 'Opera Ghost' who seems determined to have the screeching diva leave. Without a diva, Andre and Firmin are strong-minded to find a new leading lady, so they invoke the talents of a young, chorus-singer named Christine Daae, who has been taking lessons from a mysterious tutor. Raoul, Christine's old childhood sweetheart, who recognizes her at her triumphant gala performance, wants to bring Christine back into his life. But, suddenly, Christine's mysterious tutor reveals himself to her. An architect, designer, composer and magician. He's a genius who must hide his facial disfigurement behind a mask and in the tombs beneath Paris's Opera Populaire, known only as the Phantom of the Opera or Opera Ghost. His one companion is his young singing protégé, a soprano who is drawn to and mystified but at the same time terrified of her Angel of Music whose joyfully voice sings songs in her head while she sleeps and whispers in her ear during day. Everyone at the opera house is used to the Phantom's deadly pranks when his demands are not met .The show casts her into immediate fame. But when Christine, whom the Phantom has fallen in love with, accepts a marriage proposal from her childhood sweetheart Viscount Raoul de Changy, the Phantom's heart is broken. His despair quickly turns to furious, jealous rage and is willing to do anything to win her, even if it means raising the stakes to the ultimate level in Christine's choice between her love for Raoul and her strange attraction to the Phantom.

The story of the phantom of the opera is amazing especially the vocalist and the music played by the orchestra it is very entertaining, I assured to you that if you watch it you will never get bored to those who don't like opera well it's about time to know that the opera is not bad at all, i recommend to you to watch the full story so that you may experience what i have experienced.
