A contest for AMSC

Today,there is a contest for choosing the delegates of AMSC.AMSC is asian medical students conference.This year,this conference will be held in Korea.I really want to go there so I join this competition.
One mouth ago,I had gone to EAMSC(east asian medical students conference).As I mention before,this conference was held in Taipei.I ,honorly,represented my school to go to this conference.I have made lots of friend in EAMSC.With the expectation to meet them again,I decide to have a try .Besides,I have never gone to Korea before.Therefore,I truely want to go there this semester.
The topic for this year is about the conflicts to cancer.As a result, the aim of the contest is to test the knowledge and ideas about this issue.The way of presenting our idea will be "speech".I am very nervous when speaking in front of lots of people(needless to say I will speak in foreign language)There are 10 competitors in this contest.One of the competitors is 5th grade!!!!This fact make me lose my confidence. I'm 4th to go on the stage.The more closer to my time of speech,the more I fell nervous!>"<.I said to myself"Calm down,everything will be all right."
The moment the judge called my name,my mind went blank.The only thing I know is go on the stage . I started to make a speech.The topic should talk about cancer conflicts,but all the contents I mentioned were about the mechanism of tumor forming.Originally,there were more ideas in my mind but now only few simple words still "exist" in my mind.Therefore,I spent 4 min. circling around the same topic.The teacher stoped me 4min. since I began.Now,I knew myself probably have no chance to win the contest;as a result,in Q&A time,I was relaxed.I answered the question in a free way without any pressure.Unbelievably,this made me increase some points.Besides,I showed my good attitude toward this conference.While teacher ask me how did I think about this conference,I answered"I consider it much important in culture aspects rather than academics.Making foreign friends is not just "making friends".It's a learning between different culture."I thought this is the most important thing in this conference.
Eventually,I didn't get the qualification to go to AMSC.I am 5th place in this conference.(only 3 members)However,I won't give up.Next time ,I will do much efforts to get the qualification.
