Two days before the first day of November, the event coordinator for Halloween knock in my door, as my mother open it she mentioned my name and so my mother summoned me from an instance, we have a short talk and she's asked a favor to me, she told me that if I could talk in the event for opening remarks, at first I hesitated because I just don't like it. Though I used to talk in stage in our school but not in our small community. Because I really don't like it, I brag other's name to replace me but my mother told the event coordinator that I will gonna accept the offer.

A day before the 1st day of November, I really don't know what to put in the opening remarks, I don't have any idea on it. And so I search in the internet about what should an opening remarks has. I even look at the youtube for tutorial on it. I then contact the event coordinator so that I could gain knowledge about the event that I could connect to my content. After almost 5 hours of searching and trying to make a speech I then finished my drafts for opening remarks. I know memorized everything I put (one reason I why I kinda missed reading all your article sorry)

The first day of November, I know what to say and everythings on my mind, the only problem is my accent, my tone is for radio broadcasting and not for public speaking like that one. I just changed a little bit of my tone by practicing on it.
The time has come
It was 4:00 pm I am preparing what I should wear and I'm thinking of what to wear, a formal attire will do but I found more interesting vest. My sister offered me to put some foundation to my face so I gladly accept it. The program will start at 5:30 pm and I am the opening remarks so I should be there early. After everything of preparing I'm ready to go it's just my mind who's not ready, I'm not used to speak in this small community. Before I go out, I contacted mahhh badiii and she immediately went to my home, she was surprised about how I dressed because I kept a secret to her that I will be a speaker for opening remarks. She compliment me to how I dressed when we go out the program still not started so we just take pictures of me and with her.
Opening remarks is more on welcoming everyone, giving thanks to everyone who contributes and give appreciation to them also I needed to put some quotes and real life experiences so that I could get their attention. I added what Robin sharma says "that being scared is part of being alive" I take this quote because it is connected to halloween, horror, scared, fear etc. Are connected to halloween. I then add some scenario about how this thing, this quote can be used. For example is that "you're scared of jumping in a sea even with a life vest on. You should jump on it no matter what because if you didn't you'll be scared for your whole life until you gave it a try. Being scared is part of being alive, it is part of our characteristics and behavior and nature being scared is okay, everyone has this fear inside their heads and mind it's just how you will gonna handle that fear of yours.
Closing Thoughts
Yesterday after my opening remarks we all just watched everything from it. My circle of friends also come to watch the event, we all enjoyed everythings and was entertained to their dances, intermissions and even their songs. One of my friends who sang in stage gave a flower to the girl his courting and even out her to stage, well one memorable experience of mine it is. Something to be cherish. I love how mahhh badiii is super supportive to me yesterday. Even after the event we talk through phone. That's what happen to me yesterday the 1st day of November.
How about you guys? Did you wear a costume yesterday November 1st?
It's awesome that your community organized such an event. You did well for sure :)
