Meeting No: 153

Theme: Expecting the unexpected

Word of the day: Startled

Things often go out of expectation. The rain, the red hot sun, the water shortage…

This trait of life had yet again been highlighted by CC Wei Chin’s car-breaking-down experience. Perhaps she should have expected that it needs constant check-up and maintenance. In another words, do expect the unexpected..

After a round of cries of disappointment, or in certain cases, joy over the unexpected, came the Table Topic Session.

What is TM Jacky became a mad scientist one day? Nothing bad would happen as Jacky’s latest invention was a transformer technology readily to be incorporated into the modern modes of transports. Problem of traffic jam would have been solved. What’s next, not-so-mad and ethical scientist?

What if one day lion is not the fierce creature that you are impressed upon but a lion that preaches good deeds?

Given a choice, CC,CL Fatima would choose to become the king of the Jungle as it symbolizes great personality  and character.

Next, Jing Yi cheekily shared how one can become a millionaire and be declared bankrupt just in one day. Tip: Just go to any country that has small currency notes and let economic reality shows you how one can literally transform from numerous zeroes behind the figure to mere nil.

Pencil, to CC Rishi, is not merely a pencil but also something to be tossed, a good source of ideas and good appettizer if only you are willing to make the first bite. TM Jacky, the first project speaker introduced something novel by talking on Graphtology. In layman terms, it was about how your signature was intricately linked with your personality. One literally understands himself or herself better after listening to his speech!

Ever wonder how does the hype of selfie all come about? CC Rishi led all of us to probe its history and the psychology behind the selfie. Coming into being in 2012, the word “selfie” was later ranked as word of the year and even secured a place in Oxford Dictionary 2013. Besides, CC Rishi also shared with the audience tips to take a nice selfie.

This session was ended by CC Fatima’s sharing of how a slight change in attitude and the manner of discourse can make a drastic difference in relationships. All it takes is awareness and sensitizing yourself to another’s feeling. It is a simple yet profound gesture that can light up the whole world.
