458th Chapter Meeting- 15 August 2013
Meeting recap:
President Gurmit Singh, CC told us a story about a marble tile and a marble statue, and how the two ended up in different places due to their resistance to being sculpted.
Toastmaster Joe Wan brought a guest, Jack, and his speech was about how he felt like he had known Tampines Changkat TMC for years.
Richard Lam, ATMB, CL, told us about the dangers of consuming aspartame, an artificial sweetener, and the insidious dangers of it because of its symptoms.
Toastmaster Ronnie Wang, gave a stellar performance in his "The Power of Picture" speech, talking about, what else, the power of pictures. His gruesome illustration of the dangers of smoking will be imprinted in my mind.
Toastmaster Jane Yeo showed us the Stuffed Strawberry Doll she got for her 18th birthday, one of her wedding photos and a video of an ex-Area Governor dancing... unforgettable.
All the project evaluators: Toastmaster Gladys Tye; Coen Tan, ACS, ALB; Roger Yap, CC and Wesley Ho, CC, gave insightful, enriching and helpful evaluations to our prepared speech speakers.
The Table Topics consisted of a sentence-completion exercise, such as completing "I had a dream of...", "I was on top of...", "My Mum always said that..." and making that your Table Topic. Table Topics Master Nui Thantong Bang-on is always innovative with her Table Topics. For some strange reason, Toastmaster June Tan's words "Happiness is spending time with my 2 boys" resonated with me and brought tears to my eyes later when I thought about it some more.
Our Language Evaluator Yew Run Bin, ACS, CL, gave our Word of the Evening as "profound" and she gave many examples of when we used the word, and emphasized the cuteness of the phrase "Polka-dot Strawberry"
What a marvellous meeting it was!
