Chapter Meeting - 12th August 2009

If you haven't been able to attend chapter meetings regularly, don't feel left out. The door to Cheng San Toastmasters Club is always open for you!

Here's a snapshot of the chapter meeting, by our dear VPE, Fui Long.

Thanks to Tricia for taking up the roles of TME with many last minutes changes and disruptions, she pulled through despite physically drained with so many recessions going on at work. I knew she wanted to polish her mastering-the-ceremony skills, indeed she had grown and discovered many more opportunities for improvements through yesterday's session. Tired, Tough and Tremendous effort! Hi Tricia, Cheng San will always be a place for you to DE-STRESS and BE AFFIRMED!

Thanks to all the speakers, Ming Cai, Ronald, Daryl for putting the effort to prepare for the speeches. Daryl made us clearer that we were blessed to live in Singapore. Ronald, the BEST Speaker, certainly prompted us to check our Type of Output in the toilet! Ming Cai, for rushing over to chapter meeting after work to tell us a story that touched us.

Thanks to Lani coordinating the Table Topics session with the theme "I Love SPORE". And Mr. Table Topic was Guan Hau again....with SAM telling us why SIA was a great way to fly. Kumar on why Singapore would not win world cup, Xin Hong on why Singapore is an ideal home and Ivana looking forward to opening of the IR but not the Casino.

We all benefitted from our newly appointed Resident Language Evalutor Sylvia Ang who lead us to "PLEDGE" the WORD OF THE EVENING. We also learned that "ZERO" is not "GERO". Well Done!
While we were having fun, we missed Albert(staying at home), Cheng Lin(busy), Shuling(down with fever) and Chay Buay(staying back at office till late evening....., Steven Sim (busy at work) and many of you not here with us.

The next meeting will be on 26 Aug 2009. It will be the birth of 2 Cheng San Champions! Please be here to celebrate! See ya!
