17th Chapter meeting

11th March, 2010

I am a new member to this club. When I was  first approached by CC Michael Chu to take up the appointment as the TME (Toastmaster of the Evening) of this meeting, I was naturally apprehensive.

I totally had no idea on what to do.

Amidst all the encouragements from senior members and the infighting with all the negative thoughts within me,I told myself  'I can do it'.

I am now glad that I made the decision and took the challenge.  I completed my duty with relief and excitement. Relief because I have completed another project under the CL manual.  Excited because of the knowledge and experience gained.

As the TME:

1. I discovered from the theme " Ladies Night" -how powerful and influential women are.

2. I am motivated by the support I received from members during and after the meeting.

3. Not forgetting the feedbacks.  The feedbacks  gave me a better understanding of how Toastmaster meeting works and how to improve myself in future meetings.

15th Chapter Meeting

Feb 11, 2010
It was a good meeting with 20 members and 1 guest: SAA Carmelita started giving away 'hong pau' to all the singles members and wish everyone a Happy Cinense Lunar New Year. TME Abiramy was good to hold audience participation for solid 120 minutes. For table topicmaster, Jocelyn Cheok Wei Yin preapred topics on both Chinese New Year and Valentine, guest what, Valentine questions are more popular than the Chinese New Year topics. Well done to Jocelyn being the first time T.T.master.

I did my AP1 at the eleven hour, I must thank the DivA, Cindy Wong, ACS for the sincere evaluation. Of course the better speaker went to our President Kannan on his 'The Sales Training' (AP9)..wow, he will be the next ACB by having to complete just one more advance project (hey, can I envy you?) By the way our club does not have many ACB as most of the members were 'graduated' after the CC...



'GONGXI FA CAI" Happy Lunar New Year Selamat Tahun Baru Cina!
