Two..Oh...One...
Welcoming you back to Toastmasters in 2013
BACK and Here is our 11th Term Meeting Updates!
President Zahir Ahmad welcomed everyone and got everyone to address each other with questions over their Resolutions, and Revolutions in the New Year.
Good Luck with that Book DTM Fan Chen Keat!
Next the Morning Toastmaster assumed his role.
Shaun Liew, the VP of Public Relation took charge of the Meeting and got the Role Players going with their task. Then it led to... Sacre Bleu!! Table Topics led by Yean Yi who doubled up as Grammarian as well.
Takers were...
Timothy Nakayama ( arrived just in time to be volunteered.)
Fan Chen Keat
Subbra
Aaron Ng
Joyce
(Topics not ordered accordingly)
Say what u mean mean what you say
Two wrongs doest not make a right
Honesty is NOT the best policy
Why love when u can hate
Love conquers all
Hesmond (guy behind YIN Yi) our compatriot from Monash TMC played Table Topics Evaluator. As an animated guy he demonstrated his opinions how the participants could have utilized their limbs more effectively. When he found the speakers talking too quick he mimicked them talking fast as a speeding train, which will leave audiences behind. Brilliant stuff. Bravo!
Prepared Speech Time.
Wilson's "Love is the new Revolution.".
The Forth Speech in the manual where every Word counts. We were treated with phrases like, "That face...Those eyes...", ""My Brain says take 1 step back but my heart brings me two steps forward", "We find the" - "Need to breed, or the Urge to merge". Wilson hopes everybody's love life gets accelerated this year!
Azwan's controversial "Savita".
Before the Speech, audience discretion is advised. We were in for more Hard Facts from Azwan as he have done his homework for his Research the Topic Speech. Quoting from many sources like BBC & Reuters he made it clear that "Evil prevails when Good Man do Nothing".
HALF TIME! We had food & Drinks for Once!
<No Pictures of Food & Drinks were taken in respect of the poverty stricken >

The funky "Oompa Loopa!" by Timothy Nakayama from Friendship TMC.
"My Crush was going to be MINE, ...until she fell for my best-friend"
Heartbreak, and also a story of friendship withstanding the test-of-time.
"Oompa Loompas get paid in Cocoa Beans","They don't expect too much to help a friend."
It was a happy ending where two long lost friends found each other back on the Social Network called Facebook.

Specialty speech #2 entitled "Crossing the Chasm" by Fan Chen Keat
Risk, in life, is everywhere. "Did I want to take up the Accountant exams?"
"If I failed one out of four, I could reseat for it", "If I still failed the same paper, I would have to retake ALL FOUR PAPERS AGAIN!"
"In the end, I officially passed my papers, which was clearly, the chasm in my life".
In uplifting the spirits, the crowd could see the kind of chances taken in overcoming Chasms.

General Evaluator who was David Lai (AmBank TMC) said that he's role was to do NOTHING but sit behind in the room. That was true until he came up to give his thorough observation of the Meeting Conduct!
He reminded the Club to off the projectors projection or someone might get cancer! Ok, he didn't say cancer.
Truly appreciate his comments and facilitation of the Evaluation session!! Thanks Scatman DAVID!
