Minutes of Meeting 30 March 2009

All,

In Dyah's absence, I will be the Minute Man for the Toastmasters meeting last night at Jakarta Toastmasters Club (JTC).

TM Ivan was the TOM, with the theme "love with pride". GE was ATM Robert. 18 people attended, including one guest. Word of the day was "passion".

Table Topics was presented by myself, where 6 guests had to be a character and say why they were looking for love and what they wanted in a partner. Guest speakers included Brad Pitt and Britney Spears (.. and I swear they looked like them too ! !)

Prepared speeches were held by TM Men Jung, TM Yeni, and CTM/CL Imung. Their speeches were about following a desire, dream and a vision; The Twilight phenomenon; and Ms Rosa Park. I learned the three things needed to achieve a goal; I learned how great Edward Cullen is; and I learned about the woman who helped spark the anti-discrimination movement in the US. Thanks to all the prepared speakers - lets try to have at least 3 every meeting, ya??

Finally, a love letter session was hosted by CC Astuty - and we all felt the love and smelled the roses. Bravo to the TOM for his creativity and well .. passion. It was all very affirming :-)

Hall of fame: Men Jung (prepared), Johan Setiawan (table topics), and Pak Nono (Evaluator). Presidents award went to Pak Nono.

The meeting was lively and interesting, the energy high, and we had some very funny and interesting moments. I especially liked Johan's "ah/WOD" report which surpassed even Wivina's report for being comprehensive (and funny). Looking forward, we have TM Yeni who will be next week's TOM. Have a passionate week everyone...

Cheers

Mamat a.k.a Matthew Price
