Mom once said, there are three skills which if you learn will never forget in your life time – riding a bicycle, climbing a tree and swimming.
And yesterday was one such day to practically experience this. We were in the pool after about 10 month’s gap and I was really surprised to notice that I am able to swim to the extent I was taught.
But yesterday’s session wasn’t much about training/practice as we were for the entire time playing hand ball. It was a real fun, enjoyed it!
Well, at the end it was pretty clear that, once you learn it, you will remember!

When was the last time...
If you have noticed me doing something unusual these days then that’s probably because I was trying to find an answer for "when was the last time i did something for the first time!?" :)
This question kept me doing some weird things for quite some time now, but nothing of what I did give me a convincing answer. it was that evening when I was coming out of Carrefour doing some shopping that Mr. Anil Kumar called me and asked, whether I could be the Toastmaster of the evening for a joint meeting? well, it was this kind of opportunity that could be a good answer for which I was looking for from a long time.hesitantly I replied, that’s a difficult job, i am not sure if I will be able to deliver my best, but I will take it up if you people are helping me. Well, that was the starting point of doing "something for the first time".
TM Chandresh was co-toastmaster of the evening and we both started preparing the script and PowerPoint presentation based on the theme for the meeting - "Learning by Sharing". The whole process starting from contacting the role players, preparing their intros, deciding who will do what, rehearsals and everything else...till the end of meeting, was a unique and completely a learning by sharing experience. At the end of the meeting i felt that this evening I found a convincing answer to the question "when was the last time i did something for the first time!?"
