Meeting No: 134
Theme : Autumn
Word of the day : Relish
Autumn comes. Leaves change its colour. The will to learn doesn't waver.
As usual, the meeting room was packed with members and
several guests. After a brief round of introduction, here came the Table Topic
session.
Instead of being volunteered ,
the session saw off people like the courageous TM Nickolas and the spontaneous soon-to-be
TM Yahya taking the stage by storm.
As for assignment speeches, the
animal activist CC Sara enlightened us with the amazing facts about dolphins
and many ways how ships and boats cruising on the sea may harm the cute
creature.
Next, we had CC Wei Chin giving
us a good laugh with her dramatic talk titled ‘Ignorant is not a bliss’. Lesson
learnt. Remember to apply VISA beforehand when you want to visit China.
Moving on, ATMB Mustaza transformed
herself into a formidable CEO, rolling out a slew of policies that encouraged
commitment in Toastmasters endeavor.
However, the session proved to be a stormy one with confrontations from the heads of departments. Nevertheless, she braced the
storm well and the policies were amicably accepted. Phew...
Like her hair, she definitely
commands authority.
Guests must be wondering what
Toastmasters can offer to them. The
Successful Club Series Speech by Jing Yi, the Area Governor came just aptly to give
them a picture how a Tosatmasters journey would be like. At the same time, it
served as a reminder to the members to
constantly walk out from the comfort zone.
The success of a meeting is not
only made up by the fervent participation of members but also the skills of
Toastmaster of the Evening (TME). It can hardly be discerned this was the first
time that TM Nur Syafinas assuming the role as a TME, with the composure she showed on
the stage. Good job!

As for the evaluation session, it is never short of big names such as venerable DTM Dr. Devi and CC, ALB Mohammad Saifullah, the founder of Toastmasters in Bangladesh.( Impressive? Just google it up!) With their words and advices, improvement in oneself is just a matter of time.

Best Table Topic Speaker. CC Wei Chin. |
If you deem yourself a good speaker, just come and add variety to the club. The stage always
welcome you.
If you find yourself to be inferior one, don’t be afraid.
True. The thought of speaking in front of public is enough to make you shiver.
However, as a students-based club, University Malaya Toastmasters Club definitely provides you the room to improve your English communication skills. The environment here is not too hostile that kills one’s will to improve nor too placid that stunts one’s personal development.
It is now or never. See you!
