My Assignment #2: //= paragraph
//I was sitting there anxious and nervous, waiting for the results. The tall and lanky annoucer proceeded up the stairs of the hall holding a slip of paper. It was the annual running competition and at the last competition, I was just a runner-up, I was so crestfallen, my friends encouraged me on not giving up. I got up to my feet and trained hard for the next annual competition and now I am sitting here, on the solid green chair, hoping that it turns out fine.
//The announcer was about to anounce the results: "Welcome, parents,students,and teachers of all ages to this annual running competition reavealing-of-result ceremony. Lets start with the runner-ups...... 5th runner up, David of 2N2. 4th runner up, ................" he continued.
//"Now for the third place! From 1E5 it is, ....." that call gave me the surge of hope. "Zen from 1E5 got the third place! Next up, 2nd place goes to..... Jack from 1N3, to those who had not been called, good luck as the first place goes to..... Yong Siang from 1E5!" the anouncer anounced. I was too surprised for words. I went upon the stage, took my prize, thank the coaches and my friends for encouraging me and strolled down the stage, overwhelmed with joy.
//"Congratulations to all winners and thank you all for participating in this event." I was so proud of myself at that time that I never took running off my sports list.
