Minute for Meeting on Oct 14th, 2008 Oct 15th, 2008 by Tammy Best Prepared Speaker: Robert Luo Best Table Topic Speaker: Allen Shen (member of Beijing toastmaster club) Best Evaluator: Emily Yang There’re so many excellent guests visit our meeting last night. And there’re 2 girls joined us as new member—-Jenny and Jane! (Another Jane, the same name with our past president, Jane Lee) Our gentle and humorous TME—Koby, guided us all the meeting, with him, we had a so enjoinable night! As table topic master, Jasmin gave us an interesting and expecting topic—What u would be after twenty years?

Sun said if he retired, he would be travel to all over the world, because he was interested in the culture and history in the different place. Allen told us her idea to keep healthy:1. Eat less;2. Green food;3. Do exercises. For he need to keep fit to keep young and could still work for his family. The healthy gentleman also won the table topic session! Robert reminded us about 20 years ago, at that time, we thought the year 2000 was the end of the time, and we worried about nothing… so what he want 20 years later was just like the time 20 years ago!

Our new member Jenny and Jane both want to go to the relaxed place and had a relaxed lifestyle… Sunshine boy Sun, gave his basic 5 speech, told us how to manage our time. He suggested us make schedule in our daily job, and divided the job into 4 levels:1. Urgent and important;2. Urgent but not important;3. Not urgent but important;4. Not urgent and not import. It’s really a good method, I’ll try it~! Our smile Robert, gave us great brain storming in his speech. As a game disigner, he is also our web site maintainer.

In his speech, he invited us to join the discussion of how to improve our web site. Almost all the person joined the excited discussion and gave our points, such as “Improve the looking”,”fulfill the basic information”,”upload more photos and video”,”add member’s own stories”…etc. So many good ideas! I believe our web site would be much more beautiful and useful in the future! And with no doublt, Robert was the best prepared speaker! Our evaluator team last night was the most powerful team in our history! In the leadin of our past president Jane Lee, firstly, our president Emily Yang and the president of Ship toastmaster club Sarah He, evaluated our speakers’ speech.

They not only prised the good points and advantages of our speakers, but also gave some advices. Our Timer Michael, Ah counter Sarah, and Grammarian Laura also did a very good job! Michael controlled our meeting time exactly, Sarah gave us a special role description and Laura really gave us a big surprise! As a English teacher, she was really professional to play her LE’s role. She gave us the word Enjoiyable and picked up many good sentences in our meeting, such as “Keep the dream in yr mind”.. At last, GE Jane evaluated all the details of the meeting, with her analyse and suggestion, each of us could make more progress! So enjoinable night! Do u?
