Toastmaster Session on 17/07/2008

haha...
This was the second time I went to Toastmaster Session.
The last time I went for the session was 7-8years ago in Temasek Poly...
haa..
Hope that my third session won't be 7 years later...

This time I went to Tampines Changkat CC for the Session. Surprised with the warm welcome and good food! Since a long time to taste solid nasi lemak rice after shifted to Tampines... Oops... haha...

2 takebacks for the day:
1) Presentation Skill is a vital skill.
2) When young, we use health to trade for wealth.
When old, we use wealth to trade for health.

It was a fruitful session, I believed my third session will not be 7 years later. Seriously, I was very impressed with the presenters! They talked so smooth as if I was listening to a very nice song.

From very very long time ago, I knew that Toastmaster club would be benefitial to me, but dragged until today (after consist nagging by my father & sister). haha....

But I feel that there was justifiable reason for my delay. I was trying to train myself up to speak confidently by reading newspaper loudly at home. This method was taught by my Secondary School English Tutor (Mr.Koh). I found it very effective. But it really needs alot of practicing and determination. Later found out, presentation skill does not plainly depends on language. Gastures, tones, firmness & eye contacts are important too... So I decided to join Toastmasters Club to train up myself.

I am happy if I have 50% of presentation skill to what I encountered today. So got to WORK HARDER! 加油! hehe...
