I'll hypothetically be on TBS eFM at 10:30 on Thursday discussing persuasive public speaking- give a listen at: http://tunein.com/radio/TBS-eFM-1013-s113003/

 

Hypothetically, as it was pre-recorded (I'll be en-route to Shanghai then). Hope it sounds alright!

Congrats EunShil! Looks great :)

Your Administrator has done something which turned out an extremely painful experience....she did her first SoapBox on our frontpage. And she can tell you all she really hates it to be in front of a camera (yes ! I am the person who takes the pictures on parties in order to hide herself;-)

 

So dear members.....your turn now! Any Korea related topic is ok for the SoapBox....and it can never be that bad.....

STAND UP SEOUL

 

Stand up Seoul loves its seasonal rant night so much, we're giving it it's own day. Thursday June, 23, we will be having our 4th Rant for Ramen.

What is rant night? Participants take the stage and bitch, moan, ridicule, debunk, whatever gets your panties in a twist. Funniest or most entertaining rant wins a fat wad of cash (80,000won) and some delicious bowls of salt (aka Ramen). The first loser gets Ramen too! It's a wild night, and usually hilarious. If you haven't been to a rant night yet, you definitely need to come to this one.

Here's how it works: Feeling angry? dejected? grumpy as hell? Great. Arrive early and get your name on the list. It WILL fill up fast.
-Each person gets a strict 5 minutes to rant and rave and impress the audience.
-Winner is by applause. Prize is 80,000won!

5,000 won to get in.

***Special guest professional comedian Danny Cho (LA) will be there!

I thought this opportunity could be good training for Public Speaking ... and/or vice-versa!

 

Joshua... what do you think?
