The general evaluator for the meeting was visiting Toastmaster, CC Irene and her evaluation team is as follows. TM Ronald (Timer); TM Rama (Grammarian); Ah/WOD Counter (TM Helda) and Ballot Counter (ACG CL Boon)
The table topic session was conducted by TM Ronald and involved answering tricky questions, which involved quick thinking. The table topics speakers included CC Rina, Nina, and TM Rama.
Following the Table Topics session we had a game session conducted by TM Billy. Everyone was divided into 2 groups and competed in 2 games designed to test our communications skills. The first game was similar to Simon Says, but aptly renamed Billy Says (^___^).
The second game involved communicating a message using nothing but body language. It was fun, yet it required high creativity and thinking out of the box. So, guys... Any idea how would you act to get your friends to guess “Kung Fu Panda” or “Sailormoon”?
There were 5 prepared speeches on that day.
First, TM Leonardi spoke on gestures and how they have different meanings in different cultures and was evaluated by CC Rina. This was followed by TM Billy who spoke on google and using it to answer virtually any question and was evaluated by TM Rama. Next CC Martin presented on the pros of opening a casino in Indonesia and was evaluated by CTM Dave. Following this ACB CL David told us a story about the pride of being the last and his previous racing experience and was evaluated by DTM Arlan. Finally, CC Niken told us an entertaining story about the Wizard of Menlo Park and was evaluated by ACG CL Boon.
The best Table Topics speaker for the evening was TM Rama, the best evaluator was ACG CL Boon and the best prepared speech was delivered by CC Martin.
After the award session, we thanked our lovely visiting Toastmaster, CC Irene who has helped us tremendously during the meeting (as always). Then, everyone hurried to the Christmas tree for photo session and to get their gifts (provided Santa agreed they are behaving nice this year). Good to know that we couldn’t recall anyone went home empty handed ^^
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year... Until 6th of January 2010
