The Word of the Day was jest.

Kirti gave her speech ‘Beyond the Will: The Power of Mentorship’. She recounted her initial fear of driving, which was alleviated by a mentor-like driving instructor who not only taught technical skills but also provided emotional support and encouragement. This mentorship experience led Kirti to reflect on the broader role of mentors in life, emphasizing that mentorship can come from various sources and is not limited to formal programs. Kirti acknowledges the impact of mentors and unseen guides in their personal growth and encourages others to recognize and pay forward the mentorship they have received. The speech is dedicated to the speaker’s mentor, Jagan, and to unseen guides who have influenced her.

Table Topics Master Monica had a fun and creative prompt: phrases spoken in different countries that have funny literal translations in English, guess what it actually means

For example, ‘Le echa mucha crea a sus tacos’ (Mexico) – That person puts too much sour cream on their tacos. Can you guess what the real meaning was?

See you at the next meeting!
