I had a bad temper. When I was twenty, I got a severe liver disease. Upon hearing the commercial chanting "Liver Honey! A bottle only twenty." So I drank and drank. My nervous system became blocked and short, from then on I had a bad temper. But Beethoven had a bad temper, Abraham Lincoln as well. So why did I have such a problem with my own temper? I came up with two reasons: 我是個壞脾氣的人.當我二十歲時我患了嚴重的肝病，聽到廣告一直唱Liver Honey，一瓶二十元，我喝了又喝，然後我的神經系統阻塞又短路，從那時起我就有不好的脾氣，但，林肯、貝多芬都有壞脾氣，為何我的特別干擾我，我想出兩點： 1. I learned from TV shows. I like to watch TV. Sometimes I noticed that the leading actors erupted in violence. No one condemned them. Therefore I believed that if I tried to release my anger, erupting in violence is OK in the society. So I smashed things, kicking dogs and smashing trash cans. Ha! Ha! I felt so happy. But all my friends left me. They couldn't tolerate me.I became all alone. One is a lonely number. One is what ? Yes, a lonely number ! 第一，我從電視學來的：我喜歡看電視，有時候主角使用暴力，但沒人指責他們，我認為只要抒解憤怒，使用暴力是可被社會接受的，所以我摔東西、踢狗、垃圾桶，感覺不錯。但朋友一個一個離去，他們受不了我，我變成孤單一個人。"一"是個孤單的數目。 2. I learned from my customers. A few of them had very bad tempers. They rushed into my office, and made unreasonable requests. As we tried to explain, they yelled " Call the manager! " I said :" Call the security !" to show them who was in charge. One day my boss called me and said "Rosa ! This job is not suitable for you. You had better go home and eat on your own . When I picked my belongings, tears dropped, I saw all my coworkers look at me with strange smiles .I became all alone . One is a loney nember. One is what? Yes a lonely number. 第二，我從我的客戶那邊學來的，有些有很壞的脾氣客戶，他們「衝」進我的辦公室，講些無理要求，我們試著解釋，他們喊「叫你們經理來」，我說「叫保全的來」看看誰真的在負責。有一天，老闆叫我說「蕾絲，這份工作不適合你，你最好回家吃自己」。當我收拾行李時，我的同事都以很奇怪的微笑看著我，那實在很難受，我變得很孤單，。"一"是個孤單的數目。"一"是甚麼？是的，是個孤單的數目。 Finally, I stayed at home all day and through the night .I didn't know how to deal with people. No one consoled me. No one heard my cries. Loneliness destroyed me. I had to see a doctor. The doctor said "Hi ! Don't stay at home . Just walk out of your house, and walk into the crowd. Find a good club." Yes, I find a excellent club ! Do you know the name of the club? Yes, Toastmasters, and all my bad temper has been cured. You don't believe me, neither do I! At least I learned two things from you. 然後我最好呆在家裡不出門，因為我不知道如何與人相處，沒人聽到我在哭，沒人安慰我，孤獨毀了我，那時真難受。後來我必須去看醫生，醫生說「不要呆在家裡，走出去，走入人群，找一個社團」，我找到一個很好的社團，你知道她叫甚麼嗎？是的，吐司主人，我病也好了，你不相信？我也不相信，但我學到兩點： 1. I learn from all the members. All of you have good tempers except me.When I give you irrational evaluations ,you never get angry.When I say redo your speech,you never get upset. As anger comes, I must know the reason why I am so angry. Find the way out to solve it.Don't fight, but flight. Distract it .Yes,bad temper can be controlled. Especially I learned from Redhill club president Gorden Tsai, he has no temper. No! No! No! He has an excellent even temper. He forced me to join the contest. I said "No! No! No!", He followed me wherever I might go, like a paparazzi follows a movie star. At last, he even begged me said "Please ! Joining the contest. You can have a free ticket to Malaysia.I answered angrily" I know what happened to the Malaysian airplane. But he never got angry and still followed me.Yes,it was a good time for me to learn from him and follow him .Now I grow with him. １、我學到你們的好脾氣，當我提供無理的講評時，你們都沒生氣，當我說你的演講不及格，重講！你們都不會生氣，所以我一發脾氣時，我該了解時麼原因，對症下藥，不要跟人家起衝突，逃離現場，如果你想到好玩的笑話或幽默演講，你會生氣嗎？不會把！舉個例，我的赤崁分會社長Goldron他沒脾氣，不！不！不！他有最好的脾氣，他逼我參加這次比賽，我說，不要！不要！不要！他追著我跑，像狗仔隊追明星那樣，他甚至哀求我說「你會有去馬來西亞的免費機票」，我生氣地說「我知道馬航發生了甚麼事」，他也沒發脾氣，還是追著我跑。是的！我醒悟到我必須跟他學習，一起成長，所以我追隨他。 2.In spite of disagreement of opinions,we still hold the meeting in a very good atmosphere to negotiate,to communicate and to cooperate,so there is no room for me to get angry. Especially we respect the indivual.Puppy !I am so sorry!Trash can,I never do this again!In return for your kindness,I've been serving as S.A.A for 6 years.When guests come ,I'll call the security!No!No!No! Call the celebrity to welcome you with open arms and provide full service.It's great preasure and meaningful. ２、雖然在社團裡我們有時意見不合，我們還是很和氣地妥協、談判進而合作，所以沒有空間讓我生氣，特別是我們尊重每一個人，所以小狗我對不起你，垃圾桶！我不會再這樣做。為了回報你的善心，我當了六年的SAA，當貴客出現，我會叫保全，不！不！不！我會叫貴婦出來迎接，提供最好的服務，這是最快樂和有意義的事。 Do you believe that I have a bad temper now? Yes, I'm the best evidence. When Toastmasters come, bad tempers gone! Toastmasters turn lonely one to number one.Joining Toastmasters a day keeps doctors away.Toastmasters bring spring into the world. I have a dream that one day all of us have good temper and live in harmony to the eternity.Join Toastmasters and live to the eternity! 你們認為我現在有壞脾氣嗎？沒有！是的！這是最好的證明，「當參加『吐司主人』社團，壞脾氣就不見了」、「讓孤單的人成為傑出的」、「一旦加入『吐司主人』，不用再去看醫生了」、「『吐司主人』把春天引進來了」，我希望有一天，我們都有好脾氣，大家和和氣氣活到永遠，是的，加入「吐司主人」活到永遠！
