Attended their meetings as a visitor. Knowing the culture in Toastmasters, it's easy to get along. I've already known the Toastmaster of the evening, and some of the members who were working in the same place as I am.

My collegue is attempting his first assignment, the same one I did last week in-house. He was bad in his granmar, but it's a good attempt for him to step out of his comfort zone and speak up. Mr Y is vulgar in nature, and 4 letter words might be the most common english term he use during work. But I do hope that with the Toastmasters program, he'll learn to gain respect and improve his English at the same time.

I've also learn a new Tamil word - "Chandran" which is one of the words to describe Moon. I've also get to understand more about the 4Cs in diamond, and motivated by Jessica who presented an uplifting speech. I've also met some TM from Intel TM Club, and also a meticulous English teacher who taugh all of us what "articulatory verbs".

Table topics is rather eye opening, where we have to make up a story out of a few words mixed and match by another person. Most of them barely make a sentence out of those 5 words, but it is a good attempt from Peng Yew. The Vice President of Education (VPE) for this club is an officer in the place I work, hopefully I can arrange to have my assignments done that as well.
