Welcome back to
another exciting Chapter Meeting with Anchorvale TMC! At the same time, we
would like to welcome our wise and knowledgeable Club Advisor, Richard Tay who
was able to join us for another exciting afternoon.
Something
special about Anchorvale TMC is the number of guests we always have coming over
for our meetings – true to this homely spirit, we had the honour of hosting
visiting Toastmasters Lynn Poon and Gurmit Singh to liven up the atmosphere as
well!
Our Language
Evaluator for the afternoon, Richard Tay, gave everyone an early Christmas
treat by waiving the Word-of-the-Day, but at the same time, also gave a stern
reminder to the members that he will still be looking out for flowery usage of
the English language. Everyone were definitely on their toes hoping to impress!
Prepared Speeches
Anchoravle TMC
were in for a treat as they were delighted with a buffet of prepared speeches –
from the utterly humorous and candid (but no less true!) rendition of bathroom
etiquette by Sanjay Das to the benefits of leading a healthy lifestyle
expounded on by Sreemann, everyone were kept on the edge of their seats
listening! It was Zulhafni who went home with the Best Prepared Speech Ribbon
with his controversial, nostalgic look at his 22-years (old) life.
Congratulations Zulhafni!
The prepared
speeches were matched by the Project Evaluators who were eager to grab the
opportunity and share their nuggets of wisdom. While everyone was clearly
spoilt for choice, it was our own Club President Bernard Ng who managed to
secure the Best Project Evaluation Ribbon – well done, Bernard, Congratulations !
Table Topics
Not to be
outdone, Thomas, our Table Topics Master for the afternoon, prepared an
entertaining (and challenging!) series of topics for everyone to choose from.
While all those who took up the challenge clearly impressed us in many ways, it
was our impressive Roger who, once again, secured the Best Table Topics Ribbon
– Congratulations, Roger!
Our external
General Evaluator gave the Club an objective and indispensable assessment of
the conduct of our meetings and at the end of the day, everyone had something
to bring home with them as the lesson for the day.
Anchorvale TMC
would like to welcome our new members who have just joined us – don’t waste any
more time, come and grab your speaking slot early and get started on your
journey to be a Toastmaster.
(P.S. The writer
of this article also had an opportunity to celebrate his birthday during the
meeting and expresses his heartfelt thanks and appreciation for the Club for
always looking out for its members. Thank you!)
See you at the
next meeting!
Best Regards
Zulhafni - VP PR 2
