童年故事: 周嘉玲 難忘儸奬的感受

我最難忘的事就是當我十三歲時，經過學校老帥的悉心指導與艱苦訓練下，終在一風琴比賽脫穎而出代表溫哥華地區參加在多倫多舉行的總決賽，心情既緊張又興奮。

當我抵達多倫多時,受到大衆的熱烈歡迎，令我戰兢的心情減去不少，首先他們帶領我們盡情了解多倫多的風土人情，然後晚上安排入住最好的宿舍，直至比賽前夕，心情緊張非常，很難入睡。比賽當日，我完成表演項目後,靜坐在後台等待賽果。當司儀宣佈冠軍的名字時，我根本不能相信竟是我的各字，我同時獲得最突出表演奬，令我興奮莫名。

經過此次比賽之後，我仍然努力不懈繼續練習風琴，立志長大後從事演藝表演事業。當我考入大學後，發覺學校生活包含很多不同類型的課外活動例如各興趣小組的會議及活動，又如女生聯誼會的一些活動等，已分佔了我很多課餘時間，令我根本沒時間繼續練琴。

其後我感覺到各種興趣及教育，是構成一個完美人生的先决絛件不是單獨栽陪某一種特長而成於是我便欣然接受種種的活動。
