I did it...again!:)


Last Saturday, I delivered my Level 5 Speech at Toastmasters Camanava. I actually crammed my speech - composing it an hour before our meeting. Hurray I'm such a Master Crammer! Tsk tsk not such a good title. Haha!

By the way, Toastmasters is a non-profit educational organization that operates clubs worldwide for the purpose of helping members improve their communication, public speaking and leadership skills. Through its thousands of member clubs, Toastmasters offers a program of communication and leadership projects designed to help men and women learn the arts of speaking, listening, and thinking. It's an international organization. It's an organization for cool people like me. Wahaha! May pagbebenta! Seriously, if you want to know more about the club, you can rely on google.

Anyway, I've been a club member for 10 months now and counting! When I joined Toastmasters, I didn't only improve my public speaking skills (yehess,kala mo ang galing na talaga!), I also gained a lot of new friends. Sadly, I just finished my Project 5 of the Competent Communication manual. So what does that mean? It means...hmmm... ang tamad tamad ko magspeech!! Hahaha! Oh well, from now on I vow to regularly attend our meetings and to deliver my speech each time.

As I've said, I made my speech an hour before our club meeting and what made me really happy is that I got the Best Speaker Award! Wohoo! Akalain mo bumenta yung speech ko. I shall post it here soon. I will edit some parts or rather I will finish it first! Hahaha! Actually, I wasn't able to finish the draft of my speech. Impromptu yung ending talaga. It's my second time to win the Best Speaker of the Day (We have a contest every meeting for the Best speaker) and I'm so proud! Most of my speeches are based on my experience,with little modification of course. That's the good thing about Toastmasters, you can talk about anything under the sun. For my speech last Saturday, I talked about flaws and imperfections. Now, I'm pressured to think of another topic.
