Christmas Meeting


"I am dreaming ..of a white Christmas..just like the one that I used to know...



We had a unforgettable Christmas meeting at Carmelita's house; to start the meeting, Carmelita as host welcome everyone to the 12th Chapter meeting in her house. Saravanan first time did the Invocation, a teacher of the 'Secret' book...(must read book for the new year). Mark took the role as Toastmaster of the Evening and he introduced Jey Shin as Table Topicmaster for the evening. We had only allotted 30 minutes for table topics session, members and guests were readily to 'speak on their feet' in the garden of Carmelita's house...



After the table topics session, President Kannan gave a very positive 'evaluation' on 'table topics' session; At the same time, he mentioned a few 'tips' on answering the table topic. Members, get ready for the Table Topic Contest that is coming up in March/April next year.



Later, members and guests enjoyed the session on exchange of gifts and food specially prepared by the host, Carmelita Baluyut.



It was the 'first' time that we had a Toastmasters Meeting in the 'open air'.



President thanked the members and guests especially the host, Carmelita and Mr. Pang for inviting us for this 'annual' Christmas meeting in Taman Perling.



Hohoho......Merry Christmas and happy holiday.
