SZTM Speech Contest - Witness of Happiness, Growth, and Teamwork
A recap of the English and Chinese portion of the SZTM 2016 Spring Speech Contest, summarizing what several contestants said on stage: Hettie on where happiness is, Carol on facing fear, and Lila speaking from her wheelchair about learning to love herself. It notes this was the first part of the contest, with the table topic contest to follow on the coming Tuesday evening.

How do you feel about our last contest? During the English contest, mother Hettie told us where happiness is. SisterCarol suggested us trying to face fear, not escaping it. Sister Nina explained pretending from another perspective. Pretending is not only “zhuangB” but also a way to speak out louder indirectly. Boss Louis led us to experience mountains with his amazing pictures. 2B young man Seaborn acted and showed us the meaningof “come in from left ear and out from right ear”. President Cherry still sacrificed Ringo to tell us to stand out of your thinking. But I think Cherry is a good liar, as we can see that Ringo is not that bad Hongkong person. Charming Yoki told us that all good things in the world are very similar. Handsome brother Nick replayed his bad experiences to entertain us. The most senior member Steven showed us his unique way to be happy – to change body language, change muscle, and then you can change your emotion.

中文比赛期间,也是亮点多多,Steven 说道,每个瞬间都无可替代,珍惜当下,让每个瞬间都能完美地变成永恒。Lila 依然如我们所期待的那样,推着轮椅雄赳赳地上台,她说,如果要问我生命中哪一条最美好,那我可能会说就是自己开始爱上自己的那一天,她说的很对,我们确实很容易接受别人,但我们常常难以爱惜自己,改变自己的时候,请别太折腾自己,毕竟只有自己真真正正地存在的时候,我们才有机会去感受一切。Carol,就更屌丝了,她不经意间的一串:“小时候的考试,想拿第一,就是第一,比赛想拿冠军就是冠军”话说的,让观众席里的我感到好生的羡慕,不过要说那姑娘,思想不是一般的高,她说:“我们渴望创造奇迹,但也请接纳自己的平凡”其实我想告诉你的是,有些人,就比如说我,一直都觉得自己平凡到无法再平凡了甚至接近平庸了好吗?所以此条警告,不适用。Lilian, 一贯她的无厘头风格,逗乐大家,也逗乐了自己。再说 Seaborn,逗 B 鼻祖,他的中文跟英文几乎一样,两次都没讲完,匆匆下台。唯一不一样的就是中文时,衣服脱了,并且讲的是中文。当第二次 Hettie 问我们,幸福在哪里呀,这次我们都知道了答案,可见大家都真的很喜欢听她的英文篇,并且牢牢地记在心里。
