16- SOM Speech Choir and Ignite Contest 2015




The second and the last day of English Term Culminating Activity held last December 22,2015 at APC Auditorium.And yes, English term finally come to an end.The day when there is a five minutes of shame in front of many audiences our block section lose confindence and we really want to quit the competition.Again, we disappointed our English professors just like our adviser in Filione in the first term.It's really a shame to me and to my blockmates that we are not prepared for the said competition. So our last chance would be AC151 to win on the Speech Choir Competition. Finally, it was nice performance.

The opening remarks who lead by our EEP professor Ms. Eliz Reyes and by welcoming speech about the intepretation of the Speech Choir poem piece which entitled " At Christmas" by Edgar Albert Guest and talked about her experiences together with her EEP students for the second term.After that, Sir Deeno who is the master of the ceremonies took the floor and talked about the brief mechanics of the competition.He also announced the order of presentation which starts in alphabetical order.

First ,the Accountancy blocks to be followed by Business Management , then Marketing and Advertising and Tourism Management.It means from AC151 to TM151 so we will be second to perform. We want to back-up already as we saw the first performers ,AC151 then we just cheer for them and we believe that they can make it to the top three best blocks .Us,never mind and don't bother.

Moreover , After every one speech choir performed,it will be followed by a speaker for the Ignite Speech Contest which represented their blocks.Any topics would do for their speech and with the use of powerpoint presentation consists of 20 slides and every slide will have 15 seconds .They talked about their real life experience and shared some of there confidential life stories.I would like to congratulate all of them who participated in the contest .Thanks to them for their inspiring stories.

After all ,the ignite speakers and all the blocks already performed. The most awaited part of the program was the the grand awarding ceremony.In the end, Tourism Management (TM151) take home the bacon .Good to know that Accountancy students (AC151) also won in the competition.For the Ignite Speech Contest, MA151 got it.
