Finally now i'm a VPE :)

Hi everyone, Yesterday 20th April 2010
I had an election at my club, SIM Students Toastmasters Club
a club that i've been with for more than a year now.
I was running for a position in the EXCO, i'm running for VPE (Vice President of Education)
So i was suppose to write a speech for 5-7 minute on Why should i be the EXCO? and tell the reasons, and what will i do if i be one...
at start, i really got no idea on what to say
Prepared my speech in the morning 4am, and i watched video of Obama speech on Youtube
heard a lot of his speeches and finally i get and inspiration and i finally finish my speech by 8am :)
and i would also thanks Sean, the current president of the club to give me an important tips
and that is this speech is not about ME and I, but it's about the members and i'm should use more 'YOU' on my speech... it's really helped me a lot.
The election start at 7pm, and i was nervous... no matter how many times i went in from of the stage and speak, there is always this sensation of nervousness.
Here below is the video of me doing my speech :)

(Will Upload and update later)
Thanks Weimin for helping out with the Camera :D


i was competing with 2 other contestant that was running for the same position as well.
and when all us of done giving our speech, came the Q&A sessions.
some of the questions asked was:
- What's your greatest weakness that you think that can make you fail as a VPE? (by: Kenneth Lee, the past President of our club)
- What's your favorite day of the week? (by: Zhen zhi, the first President of the club)
Luckily I managed to answer all the question :)

The Q&A Sessions, everyone is so tensed ;p

Finally, the moment of truth come... and the result finally come out
and.... I win the Position together with Zhen Chong :)

Me with the Current President, Sean Loke

The New Exco member
Nadirah, Anggun, Min Zee, Crystal, Zhen Chong, and Me :)


Now that i got the position, it means that i got a responsibility to take
and i promise that i will do all my best for the club
This will be another journey in my life that i will remember for the rest of my life
This Journey will be a walk to remember, and i'm sure to learn a lot
and with this i would like to say thank you everyone for your support
without all of you, i won't be what i am today
Thank you

Good job well done man! Well, with great power comes great responsibility - it is true, it's not about us but what we can do for the people. Dude, I think you have a great character, and VPE will be able to help you to help more people. Keep up the great work, Suwandy.
