There is one thing that really surprised me that I would like to talk about.That’s the time when I won a singing competition in university.I love singing,and I am a pretty good singer–in fact,I think I am a really good singer and it’s been my main hobby for years.I’m not a sporty person and I’m not that social either but I love singing.So,I spend a lot of time listening to,and singing along with,and practicing my favourite songs.I go to KTV at every opportunity I have with friends,and I often go to a little bar near to campus where they have a KTV set-up.So,I’d say I get quite a bit of practice in.

Anyway,the second-year students on campus arranged a singing competition just before the summer holidays.I,of course,put my name down as one of the contestants,and I have to say,I was really quite confident about winning.However,after registering,I discovered that loads of really talented students had also registered.I saw them at some of the meetings and saw the rehearsals in the sports hall…I couldn’t believe how good they were–they were amazing.I then started to really worry–I mean–I am quite a competitive person to be honest,and this is my only real talent,so I for some reason I cannot explain fully,I was really thinking I could win easily.After seeing some of these other guys practicing,I felt really demoralized–they were brilliant.

So,I put in a special effort to practice and drove my dorm-mates crazy in the process.I practiced as much as I possibly good.The same song,an Adele song,over and over again.Although my dorm-mates were sick of it,they were also very supportive of my efforts and really were gunning for me to win.

Anyway,on the day of the contest,everyone performed really really well.I honestly thought that if I was lucky I might get third place.You see,I still felt I couldn’t properly hit the vocal range of Adele and get to and sustain those high notes while singing.

Well,the surprise was–when the votes came in from the judges,I won!I came first!I couldn’t believe it!Everyone,including the other contestants,were actually really praising of me and thought that I deserved to come first.Of course,I was super-happy and also I felt that my hard work,efforts and determination had paid off in the end!
