Announcements

1. Club Holiday Announcement: Jan 29^th will not have meeting. The next meeting date is Feb 5^th.

Conclusion

The Spring Festival will coming! Are you ready for enjoying the long holiday? Maybe some of you already began the holiday. So at yesterday meeting the attendances obviously less than before, but luckly is we didn’t lack of great performance and outstanding speaker.

Mary, a lovely and smart girl, hosted the meeting smooth and interesting. Reading is a important way that we got knowledge and news. She gave us many good suggestions that how to read and which kind of books or newspapers are worth reading. At rest time, don’t forget to reading.

David, our experienced speaker back from A1 club, filled up the evaluator role at the last time and won the best evaluator. Welcome back to our club in the future.

Louis bring us a big surprise. He prepared a good speech in the break time, cause we had one speaker could not attend. Told us how to be a good listener. A good listener is not just listening with ear but also with mouth and eyes. Impressive speech.

In China, 2009 is ox year. Wish all CCTM members could have good luck in ox year! See you!
