16th of July: Supernatural

The meeting kicked off with an announcement, about the Speech Craft which is on 30th of July 2016 at HELP Subang 2 campus, as well as the Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest that will be held on 13th of August 2016. If anyone is interested in knowing more details, kindly contact us!

After the introduction of role players and guests, there was a question for everyone, which was "Your understanding on the sentence 'Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.' from Sun Tzu, The Art of War". There were plenty of answers, such as "It is more like a business strategy" from Jonathan, "Strike whenever there is an opportunity" from Mahathir, and "To keep plans hidden and fall like a thunderbolt to hide from his parents" from our humorous speaker, Stanley.

Next, Nedsome had his humorous speech delivered. He talked about a story between a talking frog and an engineering student, which had us all laughing in the end.

As for table topics, Chia Chun, our table topics master of the day came up with some interesting questions. Mark and Jia You talked about never wanting to have a supernatural power; Ethan asked us to become someone beyond who we are; Stanley made us know the differences between vampire and zombie; Jony talked about the fear towards supernatural; while Mahathir had chosen an interesting topic, which was "how to stop animal illegal hunting if you are werewolves". He finished his speech with a message, which is to end animal cruelty.

Next, we had Joshua with his invocation speech. He said that toastmasters represent the voice of millions, which is why we should join toastmasters and become one of the voices of the world.

As for our prepared speech session, we had Simon with his CC#6 speech entitled "Fifty shades of yellow", talking about the real life of a Pikachu. Our second speaker, Jonathan had his CC#8 speech delivered, which was about cancer treatment, chemotherapy, metastasis and others. Vincent, the ACB#1 speaker talked about the art of selling, which include Belief System, Prospecting, Rapport, Sales Presentation, Objection and most importantly, Closing.

We thank you everyone for joining the party yesterday! No doubt, we look forward to meet everyone again in the next meeting, gracias! And of course, as usual, we had our group photo before the end of the meeting. Cheeeeeese!
