Public Speaking is FUN

Today I attended the fortnightly Phoenix Toastmaster Club Meeting (187th). Phoenix Toastmasters Club is design to help people with their public speaking and impromptu speeches. I was one of the chosen speakers for today, with only one day to practice -since my Spain trip- I thought to myself 'Fk this! I'm going to give it my best and that's it'


My Speech title was 'Be Yourself'. I started the speech with a good evening to the crowd and a question 'What Characteristics do you look for in your partner/friend?' I got some feedback form the audience.

On the board it's written 'Fastidious. Friendly. Fun. Fantastic. Beautiful' Chey sounds like me, I Kid! I went to explain the similarities of these characteristics, which are they are all positive. 

I went to explain why it is so important to be yourself and ended the speech with a quote 'To be yourself in a world that is constantly making you something else is a great accomplishment' Ralp Waldo Emerson. 

To my astonishment, I managed to win best speaker for the night. Being as a youngster among the seniors was quite a jubilant feeling for me. 

In addition, I also got nominated for Vice President Education (VPE) for Phoenix Toastmaster Club term 2015-2016. 

Thank you my lovely team for the great support and always believing in me! 

Also thank you to this guy for always continuously giving me such incredible support in whatever I do in life <3
