On a dark evening, 30 October 2013...Taylor's and Inti Toastmasters members met up around 5.30pm to set up the meeting at Student Life Centre(SLC), Taylor's University Lakeside Campus. As the wind blew and the floors creak, we decorate the place with tombstones , scary horror pictures, white balloons with glowing sticks and barbie dolls on the lectern. Also, we dim the lights and set out our jack o' lanterns in the form of oranges. (pumpkins for the western, eastern uses oranges.*just kidding*)
