Second is the best

I competed in my first Area Toastmasters Table Topics Contest this evening. It was a lot of fun and I met some interesting people and heard some funny speeches. I won second place in the "on the spot" speech segment of the contest referred to as "Table Topics". I was asked to answer on the spot the question of "What was the greatest gift I have given or received". I talked about my career opportunities at my company and the value of the people over a product.

The first place contestant will go on to represent the Area at the District contest. If for some reason, they cannot make the competition, I will take their place.
