The Results Are In...

::drum roll::

Victor... you get 7th place!

The competition was really really tough. Yeah, I messed up like twice... but, even without those mistakes... I think I probably would've gotten one or maybe 2 places higher.

The winner deserved his 1st place victory... dude was hella good... and funny!

I'm just glad it's all in the past now. It was a pretty tough process getting ready for this contest... and very stressful.

I'm just surprised at how easy it was to deliver the speech... and at the calm and peacefulness I reached before and while delivering my speech. There seemed to be a peak of nerves... and just before my turn... it all disappeared.

I guess I'm more comfortable in the spotlight than even I realized... and with that... I give you my speech:

私の名前は Victor, グリマッチョ


Thanks for all the support!

You did great! I did catch the two mess ups and the couple of time you caught yourself but other than that you were amusing, expressive, fluent, and very easily comprehensible. I can't stand it when foreigners abusive the Japanese fillers (えっと、なんか、etc..) and you didn't do that at all which I think makes a speech a speech and not just a normal conversation. Most importantly, you were yourself :)
Thanks for sharing! Miss you! <3
