Voice of Indrahanians - Alice @ Indrahana

Standing alone to give a talk had me madly petrified

Thoughts of home assignments torment, I felt terrified

Ten long years since lapsed and realization sets in

My confidence and leadership skills were totally missing !


The search for good clean fun begins

My priority for mind fitness goes beyond the shin

Fully aware that before dementia sets in

Find a club to direct my senses reigns supreme


Which club? – I have to seriously select

Indrahana 2 decades old, earns my due respect

Where camaraderie attitudes every member project

Great values and charming friends just seems perfect


Indrahana - like family members take good care

Every experience is gleefully shared

Good cheer and laughter fills the air

My journey onwards a wondrous toasting affair


I must confess - my icebreaker was not one

First speech shook me, made my mind undone

Evaluator mindful words well crafted finely spun

My mission towards CTM goal thus begun


My journey was fun and made swift

And I earn a CTM, my first rewarding gift

ATM bronze and silver follow like a breeze

Boost my confidence to all time lift!


I consider Indrahana the second home

Where Queen’s English dreams are truly hone

Great champions of Indrahana do set the tone

Be shining stars for Indrahanians to clone


Welcome to Indrahana - where age does not matter.

With longevity there’s wisdom and good chatter


Come enjoy the thrill of claps, and witty cheer

Savour Indrahana magic through the years !

Ice Breaker Speech: Myself by Ang Poon Kenn

Good evening everyone, my name is Ang Poon Kenn, everyone calls me Ken. Today, the title of my speech is about Myself. As far as I could recall, me parents were not staying with me since I was 3 years old; they went overseas and started their new working life for some reason, and did not come back ever since. I'm staying with my grandmother, and she look after my elder brother, younger sister and me. I actually have not met my parents for more than 18 years and only communicate through the phone and social media.

However, even though I have the love from my grandmother and relatives, I felt that I'm different from others. They have parents accompany them during...
