Division S International Speech and Table Topics Contest @ AIA Changi 26 April 2008
The turnout was surprising low, and we realised that it was because 2 other divisions in Singapore was holding their contests as well. As usual, Cheng San contributed the most number of supports in a single club… WHOA!

The people who were there including the contestants were Shuling, Albert, Hwee Ling, Cliff, Lani, Shenoy, Hung Jui, Regina, Fuilong, Wee Jee, Chay Buay, Esther, Daniel, Ronald and Guan Hau. A total of 15!

Guan Hau was 1st runner up in the International Speech contest. Congratulations! This was no mean feat as he was in a field of giants which included a past district champion, Benjamin Cheng, the AIA dynamo, Mohd Hijazi, and the 1st District Governor and veteran DTM, Gae Ban Peng.
Ronald was unplaced but he thought he provided the best laughs of the day. Huh?! What “tudes”, the only one I know is You-tube. Anyway, the killer table topic was "Altitude, Aptitude, Attitude".

Nancy, I hope you are feeling better already.
Cheers,
Ronald

Relationships

Hanwen...


Hung Jui came up with some controversial table topics which spiced up the evening.
"Is choosing a girlfriend the same as choosing your wife?" Han Wen's response was: In her presence my answer would definitely be YES! The audience burst out laughing because his girlfriend was with us tonight. Ah... you just have to love these people.

The Importance of Effective Communication

We were Here!

Food Cheap Cheap!
Certificate of appreciation
Esther and myself put our public speaking skills to use at Nan Chiau High School speaking on the topic of the Importance of Effective Communication to the Sec 4 and 5. The experience was indeed very memorable and we hope more opportunities would come our way to display our talents from Cheng San Toastmasters Club.

Outing at Cottage Waffle Place

We had our February monthly gathering at Cottage Waffle Place. As the name suggests, it serves waffles with a variety of fillings. If you missed this time, fret not! Join us again in March!

We had about 18 people, of all in the picture. Even those long-time-no-see people turned up!
