The members of the club as well as the visitors introduced themselves and what they feared the most. Everyone has his/her fears, that's a fact but as Toastmasters, no one in the room had any fear of public speaking whatsoever.
In lieu of the Table Topics portion, a Prepared Speech Contest was held instead. Unfortunately, only two contestants were available and they were the contest master himself, CC Peter and the TME, CC Erika. Nevertheless, the contest pushed through and Erika showed that she had what it takes to be the champ.
Ariel finally followed up on his Ice Breaker speech with his second delivery about shopping in the country's premier bargain center, Divisoria. After Ariel, Rodzon then delivered his pieace about his admiration for his father's dedication and love. Ariel's speech was evaluated by Bobby, who made his debut as an individual evaluator while Rod's delivery was gauged by Cecille.
