I said a dumb thing and tried to make up it to make it more interesting and innovative 😂
Ikr. Plus just 90sec.

The last kira I did was 60 sec for other school. And I could wrap up easily in 60 sec including a hello to the person who asks questions and a thank you note in the end.
But McCombs felt tough.

Or I wasn't composed enough. But okay.

So someone posted a question here some days back about TMAT when you had power on someone but you didn't use it.
First thing which came into my mind was ' today I was walking, i could have stepped on an ant, but I didn't ' 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Whatever you rehearsed it never worked at the time of Kira. I posted in MIT group. I got a very simple question What is your favourite color. I said Red/Yellow, and was actually wearing my fav color that day that didn’t click my mind at all. Made all the stupid story for Red/Yellow for What reasons even I don’t know😂😂😂😂 Energy, positivity blah blah. The moment video got over then I realised oh what the heck I just did😂😂😂😂
