Meeting @ 27/9

What a night! 33 people turned up for a regular meeting! This number includes guest from Sunway University! The night started out by the presidential address, Lim Thian Seng took the floor and asked the guest to introduced themselves. Next! the usual energetic, hyper, fullofsarcasm  yet humourous, Victor Ong took over the control as the Toastmaster of the Evening! He created an blissful atmosphere in the room to start off the meeting. 
Table Topics, done by Undarma( 1st timer ) gave opportunities to 5 speakers to try on deep topics that require the participants to think hard, thoroughly, and critical. Topics such as eg: 1) What is the significance of life? 2) Who inspire you most and why? 3) If you are the ruler of the world for 1 day, what are the 3 things will you do? 
Participants like Fanny, Angie and Tong Fong, took up the challenge and gave it a go towards the given topic! All the participants did extraordinary well. 

After that came the assignment speeches. First one up is Angeline Loo on her project #2. She gave a thorough informative, educational and yet interesting presentation on the way to prevent breast cancer. Next up is Teoh Lee Lian doing her project # 3. She did the presentation regarding the advantages of donating blood, also rich in knowledge and plenty of good information for the audience to bring it back home today! Michael Kum was next to talk to us about what is a job scope of a project manager. He came in with full of details and points to give us all a good overall view on his job. Speaker number 4, Chan Weng May came in to give us a good laugh with her speech #2 from the Advanced manual - Humorously Speaking Manual. She talked about how body language and a smile can change a person's attitude towards you. Last but not least, Kay Wong did her final project on the Successful Club Series. She taught us to break from our own comfort zone and gave us a good headstart on where can TM bring us in the future. She wants us to go beyond in Taman Indrahana and be more initiative in joining other clubs and pick up some roles to play. 

Overall, an amazing night it is! Full of laughter, joy, happiness and good fellowship! That's the way a TM meeting should be! When a person just got off work, and wants to release all the stress load for the day. A toastmasters meeting is where someone should be! Especially Taman Indrahana, where it is filled with people from various types of jobs and background! A place to socialise and make new friends.

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. Can you imagine, 15 years of not seeing your own parents? 18 years of not having parents around the house, school and life. My grandmother take over my mother's role, she does all the housework for us. She takes care of us. My relative, they are not rich but they sponsor me for my education and pocket money. 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...

Meeting on 27 October 2009

Dear Indrahanians, Greetings to you. Last meeting we had one of the most unusual Table Topics Sessions I've ever attended. It was conducted by Jen. She gave out a few topics & participants were supposed to tell us a lie based on those topics. Basically Jen wanted us to tell a Tall Tale. A tall tale is a story with unbelievable elements but told in such a way that it could be true. So you can believe it or not. During the session, you could tell who are the true liars (a.k.a. Dominic), those who can't a tell a lie in their honest-to-goodness life (a.k.a. Alice), those who try but didn't quite succeed (a.k.a. Dr Choong), and those who are probably true blue liars - like our guest Victor and our very own Yuan. For the record, Yuan won the Table Topics Award that night. Congrats to Yuan for being such a good liar! And kudos to Jen for such an entertaining session. Those of us who were present had a 'belly' good laugh. Anan gave his ice breaker speech. Those of you f...
