Mihye, a charming lady, is a new member of our club. She shared her life experience in China in her “Ice breaker speech”. I like her speech very well, because it let me know a truly Mihye. And I appreciate her view on life. I still remember the last sentence of her speech “If you are happy today, you will be happy tomorrow.” Yes, life is not great as we think sometimes. If you face it optimistically, you will conque the difficulty and enjoy your life. Ines, a famous environmentalist in toastmaster, brought us another environmentalism class yesterday. But she let me know protect environment is not just an object to discuss day by day, it had became a problem to solve by ourselves now. Have you done like Ines said: “Reduce, Reuse and Recicle”? It is really a revelatory speech. Practice public speaking and leadership skill is our club’s aim. And at the same time, we can share our experience with each other. It is also enjoyable, right? See you next week. |
