A day of idioms. 22/9 (4th Meeting of the 2012/2013 term)

There was no 'word of the day' in today's club meeting. Instead, today's meeting was filled with idioms!

 The 'idiom of the day' was 'to have a ball'.


A big THANK YOU to Mid Valley TMC, Taylor's College Subang Jaya TMC, Speecom TMC and also Monash TMC for filling up our slots for meeting roles.


 Table topics master Isabell, our lovely immediate past president came up with topics such as 'The Grass is Greener On The Other Side' and 'The Pen is Mightier Than The Sword'. 

All of the topics were actually idioms except for one which is entitled 'The World Would Be Better Without Idioms'. 


IDIOMCEPTION. *Inception theme song plays..


The brave volunteers for the session were Seng Kiat, Shaun, Kessie, Fan Chen Keat, Wilson and..
Azwan, who got the award for best table topics for the detailed comparison between the might of a pen and a sword.


Next up it was the Prepared Speech Session.



First up was Shaun Liew who gave speech #3 in his CC manual about relating the iridescence of soap bubbles to life.
Shaun:"NO LA MA IT IS FLA-ER (flower), SINCE WHEN IS IT FLAR?!"

Azwan, was next with his speech title 'Benevolent Tyrant'.

Last but not least, Zahir entertained the audience with his quirky gestures whilst telling a story about his trip to Langkawi. Thus, the stone statue pose below.




Timothy Nakayama from Mid Valley TM gave an astounding evaluation: mind blown. Seriously. 
".. And that is the hallmark of a dreamer, thinker, and a great future Toastmaster!" said Timothy.

Dylan on the other hand, was cute! (According to Stefanie Yau of Monash TM ;) ) As usual, he reinforced the importance of good usage of body language and hand gestures. Well done to Dylan for getting 2nd place in the evaluations contest of area B4/B5 :D

 Victor Ong's (from MULTIPLE clubs) presence was warmly felt as he gave his evaluation for Zahir's speech. We hope you succeed in getting that DTM, Victor, good luck! :D

Last but not least, the prize giving ceremony.

 

BEST TABLE TOPICS GOES TO AZWAN FROM TUTMC!


BEST PREPARED SPEECH BY ZAHIR FROM TUTMC AS WELL!


 And finally, BEST SPEECH EVALUATOR FOR THE DAY IS VICTOR ONG! (from multiple TM clubs including Sunway University TM. Sorry, I could not remember all the clubs :p)
