Meeting No. 137

Theme: Holiday Traditions

Word of the Day: Joy

When we think of holiday, there must be a joyful time. We step out from study and relax. What is your unique holiday traditions in your family? 

The Toastmaster of the Evening, Fatima led us by sharing our holidays traditions among our members and guests. We got to know the traditions of different background. 

Table Topics Master, Pei San did a wonderful job for her first attempt! CC Yik Ming volunteered himself as the first table topics speaker with the topic, "Who will you spend your holiday with?". The audience were excited with the topic and expected some secrets to be shared with us from Yik Ming. However, he would spend his holiday with his best friend, Kevin by watching horror movie in the cinema. 

Next, the best friend of Yik Ming, CC Kevin had his topic to reply on Yik Ming's invitation: "How do you spend your holiday?" Kevin rejected Yik Ming's invitation because he has to complete his assignments.

The table topics session continued with guests, Yahya Imran and Yee Yuan. Both of them spoke very well. Guest Yee Yuan became the Best Table Topics Speaker. Well done!

Moving on, our new members TM Chern Ken and TM Mhiruna delivered their icebreaker speeches. Chern Ken told us that he is a shy person. However, after joining toastmasters, he will transform himself. Not shy, but shine! TM Mhiruna let us know more about herself and her family. She loves cooking! 

Scope of the speech from CC Sara is wide. This time she spoke about volcano! She demonstrated how volcano works.

We had an special occasion by ACS CL Jing Yi who presented a toast to a humble teacher. The teacher
has guided the club members for many years and she is none other then DTM Dr Devi. 

A meeting cannot be successful without a team of role players and evaluation team. The team of evaluators gave positive and constructive feedback to all the speakers including table topics speakers and project speakers.
