When I was told to play for a drama competition，I became nervous．I had never done anything like this before．But after reading Shakespeare's Twelfth Night，I was excited about what was to come．The story was great and the sentences were so funny．I wanted to give it a go．
I was playing Sir Toby Belch，a very funny old knight （騎士）．I had to remember a lot of sentences and very funny old words．I worked hard in order to act well，like a real knight from the old days．But the most difficult job was to be funny in all my acting． This is quite different from the way I am in real life．
"OK．It's time to be a different me now! " I said to myself．At first，I couldn't do anything naturally．I don't know what to do when acting in this silly way．But I always told myself that I was Sir Toby now and I should forget who I really was．Even when I was in the bath，I was thinking about Sir Toby's words and actions and trying to do everything like Sir Toby did．
The competition day finally came．When it was my turn to perform，I took a deep breath and began my part．I tried hard to make my words clear enough to understood and my actions funny enough to make everybody laugh．When the results were finally read out，I immediately knew we had won the first prize．I made it．
From this experience，I've come to know that I can be a different person．It doesn't mean I've changed my personality，but I can do something I had never imagined possible．
