If there's any way to wait for 21/12/2012 to arrive for the world to end, BAT Toastmasters club did it in style by having its 23rd Club meeting on the 19th of December, 2012 celebrated the year end / new beginning (if the world has not ended on 21/12/2012) gracefully with the theme being Ushering In The New Year!
Party's Here Banner Fits the Meeting Perfectly
This meeting was called to order by Sergeant-At-Arms Rachael Renita, TM at 12.15pm, slightly behind time (yet again). That's strike two as the previous meeting was also late in starting.On the other hand, this meeting was quite unique in the sense that it was a Project 2 speeches marathon, i.e. all the project speakers were doing their project 2 speech! We were honored with the presence of Shell Cyberjaya (CBJ)'s toastmaster club's president, Tuan Hui and he took up the role as the general evaluator for the day.

As the video file sizes are big, we are still facing some challenges uploading videos so for now, please enjoy the photos as starters. As the old saying, a photos speaks a thousand words.
Table Topics Session:
Table Topics Session:
Table topics session was conducted by TM Vicknaeswaran and in conjuction with the date and latest craze on Gangnam style, the participants was treated to a Youtube video and spoken in relation to the video. Yet another new idea of conducting table topics by our favorite table topic master. :)
Unfortunately yet again, there wasn't any recording of the evaluation session this round, perhaps everyone was still amused and entertained from the table topics speakers.
Evaluation Session:
In conclusion, after the speeches and reports, all good things must come to an end, with the meeting adjourned on time at 2.15pm. Well good things did continue afterwards with a good sumptuous lunch provided to all attendees as well as the year end-cum Christmas gifts presented to all BAT Toastmasters club members as well as guest. :)
And we are still alive as shown by this post. :) It's a new year, new beginning folks! More posts to come. Until then, do enjoy the rest of the photos of the day below.
