* * * * * *
Note:
- This is my second impromptu speech delivered at the 3rd Batch of Speechcraft of Toast of Comsofil
- Personally, I do not suggest delivering impromptu advance speeches unless you have wide experience to do so. Note that this speaker has won several awards in Table Topics contest in club level, area level, division level, and was the 2nd place winner in the Quick Wit Marathon contest.
- Below is the outline of the speech

Introduction
- Ask a question "Have you ever been to a situation where you are loosing an argument simply because you don't know how to explain yourself"?
- Salutation
Body
- This could happen between you and your boss, between two lovers, between two married couple
- For me: between me and my mother
- Story of Jorge the silent
- Tortured soul because he was forbidden to speak
- Uncles who are hyenas - snarls all the time
- Aunties who are chimpanzees - talks all the time and never listen

- If only
- I could express myself - I would be understood
