Sep 28, 2019 Toastmasters Meeting

The sun was up and bright today after a rainy week. I left home early today just so I could arrive in time for the Officers Meeting. The Skyway Extension Project is in full swing and has been causing massive slowing down of traffic.

Alabang Community Toastmasters Club Visit - Sep 21, 2019

It's my first time to visit the Alabang Community Toastmasters Club in their new venue at Unit 716 of the Civic Prime Bldg. The last time I visited the club was at the Cafe 8 in Crimson Hotel when I was Area Director.

Amazing Harbor Toastmasters Club Inauguration

There was something amiss when I was nearing the Bureau of Customs (BOC) compound at NAIA. It wasn't just the car tire trouble that I was having, there was something strange at the road.

There was a long line of cars parked on one lane near the sidewalk. I asked a watcher if that was the way to the BOC. He said yes and that there was an event right inside the parking lot. This meant there was nowhere else I could park and so I was just instructed to back up and park at the tail end of the queue.
