Jerlynn, with my pet, Chelsea.

The world is really small. I often like to click on my site meter to find out who are the readers of my blog. I came across a blog reader who has her own blog address of http://idyllism.blogspot.com and was thrilled when I found out that she is also a toastmaster at Buona Vista Toastmasters' Club. Her name is Jerlynn, a petite, and somewhat charming young lady. She is versatile as well, being in the insurance industry and is also a free lance make up artist cum beautician. During her free time, she does make up of brides and actors and actresses.

Jerlynn is an active toastmaster and is quite a good public speaker and evaluator.
Despite her busy schedules, she manages to play an active role in toastmasters' activities. It is interesting to note that when you give a busy man a job, somehow he always gets it done. Hence it all boils down to time management. Jerlynn finds time to write in her blog as well as time to keep some hamsters as pets. She is now taking care of her friends' car while they are away in the States. Jerlynn is quite generous in giving rides to her friends and family members. Once we both went to the Leng Kee Toastmasters' Club and met a visitor who is handicapped. We were touched that he came all the way to the meeting even though it was raining cats and dogs. Without hestitation, Jerlynn volunteered the drive him home in the heavy rain after the meeting.

Although a financial specialist, Jerlynn is quite competent with the computer and has taught me how to download pictures into the computer. Not technically inclined, I always admire those who are adept at mechanical and electronic gadgets. Jerlynn had mentioned that if she had not chosen accounting, she might have tried engineering.!! It is easy to understand where she gets her genes from...her father is also an engineer.

It is encouraging for me to find youngsters who are mature beyond their years. When I look at Jerlynn, I feel there is hope for our nation. I always tell my students, "Let no one despise you of your youth. Show the world, and hear the lions roar!"
