Elocution Contest Second Placer

Before anything else I would like to set the record straight. This was not some school-wide contest. There were quite a number of sub-groups and Steffi's sub-group had a total of five contestants, so she bested three of them.



Still, you have to keep in mind, this is a child who as a baby would literally cry for hours upon seeing new faces; whom her pre-school was hesitant to admit at first because she refused to reply during her interview.

So we're very happy she seems to have come a long way. It's a decent performance wouldn't you agree?


(and apparently, to her mom's eternal relief, looks like she is not the shortest one at her grade level. :-) )

  1. Such a wonderful performance. I love how she focused on both the words and the actions, and how she emphasized the most important point of the piece by falling down on the ground. Her message is profound: keep the fly and it'll die; let it go and it's happy!

    Great job, Steffi!
