Great Memories in Xiamen Spring Conference, Jess Cheuk

Why not? It’s the answer when Derek, our President invited me to go Xiamen Spring Conference 2011.

A wonderful journey was started from 13 May. Derek, our President, Betty, Edward, Steve and me flied to a beautiful place, Xiamen. In these 4 days, we listened to 72 Speeches and Table Topic Contests in both English and Putongua plus 5 workshops! (including the Keynote Speaker, Rory Vaden, the first runner-up, Toastmasters 2007 World Champion of Public Speaking) What’s more, we met a lot of people from Hong Kong and China.

Besides the conference, we explored the beautiful Island and bring a lot of joy and happiness memories.

In Toastmaster, I only expected to learn the public speaking skills. I didn’t notice that I have gain much more than I expected! Friendship, team spirit and an enjoyable journey… 

If you have more involvement in Toastmaster, you can also get more than you expected. “When is the next conference?” is my last question of the journey.  I hope to see more Oasis members in the next conference, November 2011 in Hong Kong.
