Humorous Speech and Evaluation contest - review

On the 17 August 2013, Taylor's university Toastmaster's Club held our Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest. Lots of people attended the event, well, considering our event happened to fall on the same day as a talk by How to be a Professional Emcee". Yean Yi (oraganisng chair) really did her best pulling this this event.

At 1.30pm, contestants (me included) were briefed on how the contest is going to be like yada yada yada.. and the event started at 2 something.

We have four contestants for the humourous speech contest:

"I don't understand how my girlfriend who is afraid of cockroach dare to pour hot wax on her leg," says Kent 

Zahir 

Azwan

Ashikin (who bravely did her 1st speech in a contest!)

After the break was the evaluation session:

Zahir 

Kent

Ashikin

Lalitha

As there are only 4 participants competing in the humorous speech competition, only two winners were chosen. 
Zahir won 1st place in the humorous speech contest

2nd place for humorous speech contest

 Next up was the evaluation contest prize-giving session:
1st place for evaluation contest 

Zahir won 2nd place for evaluation contest 

3rd place for evaluation contest

The event officially ended a few minutes before the stated time-5pm. The 1st place winners are then moved forward to the next level, Area B2!
