6 Months in APAcS Toastmasters Club

Hello, As the title suggests, this blog post will be about how I've changed after 6 months of joining into APTC. I like how members treat me. Most of them are older than me by 1 - 4 years and yet the choose to treat me as an equal. It was strange at first. They were so comfortable with me and that made me uncomfortable.

Timer

Toastmasters and Everything Else

Hi, Ainna here. It's been a while, I'm sorry for my absence. This post will be about all that has happened within the last 6-8 months I've been away from blogging.

What's Next?

Hello, I realised I haven't told you lot about my exam results so I shall, now, if that makes any sense. I'm deeply sorry for the delay, I have a lot on my plate right now and updating my blog isn't on top of my list. However, since I have some spare time, I might as well get on with it. On the 20th of March, SPM results for the candidates that took them on November/December...

Results, Expectations and Self-Doubt

20th March 2014 T-minus 10 hours until they announce the results of the SPM candidates of 2013. I can't seem to get my head off it so let's talk shall we? Coming into the year 2013, I knew what I had to do. I had to study and work my butt off and not disappoint.
