Club International Speech & Table Topics Contest, held on 25th February 2014 at RSUC

This club event was successfully held with two participating in the International Speech and five in Table Topics. Our Treasurer, TM Kay Ku started off the contest in place of our VPE who, unfortunately was temporarily sidelined. Dilaasha showed much enthusiasm and spirit in talking about "Living Dangerously", challenging us to consider options outside our comfort zones while Indra gave a polished delivery, starting with a story on "Little Acts of Kindness". Our five Table Topics contestants were challenged to elaborate on "Don't Judge a Book by its Cover", an easy topic with wide possibilities for discussion.
