My Toast Masters 101

Hahaha!  Glad to blog again, if not with the brainstorming I needed for my 1st toastmaster's speech, I guess I will not be here.

Yes, I am now a member of the Toast Masters in our office with members from the Makati club.  I have attended 2 meetings and for our upcoming meeting this Wednesday, I will deliver my first speech.  They call it the Icebreaker, where new members will talk about themselves.  Just to give you a little briefing, this session is held every Wednesdays of the week at 7pm in our office, where members are gathered here to practice speaking in front of an audience.  I believe that this is a good practice especially for people who does a lot of communication in their jobs like Sales/Account Executives, DJs, Hosts, journalists, etc.  What I admired about this club is they correct your grammar, they make you think creatively on how to deliver speeches through their Table Topics and you interact with other people.

I am trying to squeeze out my creative juices for my working title as well as my intro and my ending.  Whooaah!  I hope I get this right.  I just needed a good start and I know, I can do it!  I'll try to post my speech.  Wish me luck!
