Sixth Meeting

Our 6th meeting was held on 3th September 2008 with the theme of the day – none. You might be wondering whether the theme is none or there’s no theme at all. Well, actually there was no theme at all as we have to finish up the meeting quite early in order to attend the Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest of Area W5. You can read the achievement that UM TMC has made in the contest just below this post.

The word of the day was ‘Euphoria’. It means state of extreme happiness. We were quite euphoria to use the word ‘euphoria’ for several times in the meeting, especially TM Fun Mun Wah. Our meeting started at 4.30pm and the Toastmaster of the Evening was TM Grace Kang. The table topic session was conducted by TM Teo Bee Guan with brief explanation and questions regarding copyright and home or school education.

Our Table Topics Evaluator was TM Kimmy Foo. She indeed gave a very encouraging evaluation to all our table topic speakers. Well done Kimmy, you inspire us. In this meeting, we had only managed to have one speech project due to the rush. Our project speaker was TM Deborah Chow and she gave a practice on her contest speech. She made us all laugh aloud till we were in the position of euphoria.

Thank you to our General Evaluator, ATMB Christine Ong, and our speech evaluator, ACB Simon Tan to show us the way of improvement for a better speech, evaluation and overall meeting. The Ah counter in this meeting was very excited. He sometimes was in a position where he was too interested in the speech until he has forgotten to count the pause fillers. Luckily the Grammarian came into rescue.

Finally, it was the award giving time for the best table topic speaker....drum roll time………drum roll…..drum roll…..
