This is the Bay Area. Who doesn’t love the outdoors?

The Word of the Day was avid, chosen by our Grammarian Monica.

Jian gave her speech titled ‘The Adventure Beneath the Meteor Shower‘

Jian shared with us her amazing experience of seeing beautiful stars and meteor showers with her friends. She even shared her photo with us where she expertly captured the meteor shower with her new-found photography skills.

Jagan gave his speech titled ‘A Big Leap for Me, A Small Step for my Skills’

Jagan reflected on his pathway to self-discovery and personal growth. With perfectly timed moments of humor, he described how he has grown through experiences like practicing public speaking in a women-led club and learning to shed his discomfort and share more personal details about himself.

For Table Topics, Table Topics Master Gail had a creative idea. Participants picked a number on a screen, which would reveal either a question or a skit they had to call on someone to perform with. The questions were all outdoors-themed, such as ‘You and a friend are lost in the wilderness, how do you get out?’

How would you get out? While you ruminate on that, stay tuned for next week’s meeting recap!
