MARCH "OCCUPATION"
Hello!!! I'm back. You all must be thinking, sure i've a long long nice break. Unfortunately, yes, i've a long break, but a 'unbreakable' break. haha...twist your brain a little and you will understand :P
OK! What do i mean by march occupation?
It means, during the month of march, what are the things that exactly occupied my time in march.
1st!
I had attend a course on "Public Speaking for Engineers". There are 3 lessons altogther.
First day was on the 6th of march 2007, i've learnt the Essential Skills of Public Speaking:
-Importance of speaking
-How to organize a speech
-The purposes of speaking
-Gestures
-Vocal
-Visual aids
etc.
That day's speaker was Casey See King Clai. He seems to be a very experienced speaker when i first heard him conducting the lesson. But after hearing from Mr Ee Cheong, it was really unbelieveable that Mr See(Casey), had only joined the club (two years ago).<-- not sure whether is it correct. It is a beneficial course. I'm fortunate to be invited by a toastmaster to attend this useful course. He's none other than Ee Cheong, the ex-president of toastmaster club. =) Below is a photo of him and me! :P He has two children. They are very cute and shy. Too bad i do not have photos to show all of u. =(

That day, learnt some new terms: 1. Technically unsound--not good in technical, ie engineering issues
2. Inadequate--not enough
3.Numerate--give numbers, be specific in numbers
The 2nd lesson, is held on the 13th March 2007. The lesson is about: Effective Public Speaking.The speaker for that day was Kenneth Cheong. I've learnt:
-Writing a report -Spicing up a presentation -Posture again -Sign posting
Mr Ee Cheong taught me new phrase again! He uses this phrase to descibe me.
"IRON FIST IN A VELVET GLOVE"
which means, although i look weak at the appearance, my inner self was actually stronger than what is expected. =) So, *don't provoke me* *wuahahaha*
The 3rd 'lesson' is basically a presentation given by the participants. Luckily i'm not one of them. This was to train them in Impromptu speaking.
I took alot of photos that day too!
