Toastmasters

I just joined Toastmasters. It is a speaking club. My mother was in Toastmasters before I was born. I always knew it was something I would like to try. I had it on my list of life goals for years and years. I finally thought to myself, "What am I waiting for? What is stopping me from going for it?" I decided to do it. I looked on the internet and found the Toastmaster meeting closest to my home. I had no idea what to expect. After going to 2 other buildings I finally found the meeting. I got there late but they acted very excited to see me. They were all very warm and friendly. I was as comfortable as a person could be showing up at a strange place, with new people and standing and giving an impromptu 2 min. speech on holiday goodies. But you know what? I came home so pumped!!!
