28th Chapter Meeting - 18 Aug 2012


Ladies and Gentlemen


Anchorvale Toastmasters Club witnessed another eventful session with members and estimeed guests joining us for a fun filled, educated Saturday afternoon on 18th Aug.

We have added one more feather to the crown by adding one more “Competent Communicator” to our club and that's none other than our own Roger Yap, the VP for education. 

Its alawys a pleasure to welcome our fellow Toastmasters from various clubs in and around Singapore, and we never miss an opportunity to learn and collaborate from our exeprienced guest speakers.

After the meeting kick off by myself as a “Sergant-at-arms” I handed over to our club President Bernad who addressed the Toastmasters with an inspirirng short speech, with that we straight plunged into the prepared speechs.

We started with our first speaker Venkat who presented an excellent topic titled “Pranks of a Nobel Laureate” and entertained the team . 2nd speaker was me and I presented a topic on self help about how to be successful and not get distracted standing at the cross roads of  “focus actions” and “distractions” titled – “2 lists to refer every morning”. Sreeman impressed us with superb body language through his speech and his Ragging experience in college, titled - “Ragging and my experiences”. And last but not the least the star speaker of the day Roger took us thorough his journey, stunned all of us by sharing his life threatning incidents, quite an emotional, and thought provoking story, titled – “I shall die another day”.

A big Thank You to all our esteemed guests Jean Ng, CC; Ted Chong, CC, CL; Christine Lim, DTM; Chng WeiLOng; Paulin Chan, CC, ALB; Gurmit Singh, CC; Vincent Leung, Karen Woon and Sabrina Seah for not only holding various positions of the day but encouraging our toastmasters throughout the session with undevided attentions.
