I. Prepared Speech Session
1.
BM#1 Ice Breaker
Speaker : Regina
Noya, TM
Title : “Ups and
Downs Make Life Worth Living”
TM Regina talked about Life is full of surprises but not all of
them are good surprises. We tend to regard bad surprises as problem. Everyday
we encounter them, some are trivial and easy to cope with, some are serious and
we have to struggle to conquer them. For instance we loss valuable possession
or some one we love.

about Regina and her amazing mother. Really a touch story and a thoughtful
personal experience.

BM#4 How to Say It
Speaker : TM Peter
Lee
Title : “Super
Bargain Trip”
TM Peter talked about South Africa is relatively cheap, easy to
go and most importantly, an amazing place that most of us will surely enjoy.
It is none other than South Africa, a place which I have visited last year and
almost didn’t want to come back. If you have been to Australia, you will
usually be mesmerized by the vastness of the land, the natural beauty, and
South Africa is quite similar, but to me personally, a much better place to
travel. The Safari there is mesmerizing. I actually had a chance to
visit one of Africa’s most famous Safaris – the Kruger National Park.
Kruger is the biggest National Park in South Africa covering almost twenty
thousand hectares. It is basically a really huge area where tourist is
allowed to drive in and get to see the animals living in the wild. I
chose to stay at a resort next to Kruger and the quality is out of this world
at the price.
TM Peter evaluated by Ivan, Rahmat CC, ALB, who
complemented for TM Peter. TM Ivan said that TM Peter fluently delivered speech
about his vacation to South Africa. TM Ivan found that was really
interesting topic that genuinely caught the audience attention. Full of
information and vivid pictures that were shared to audience. The suggestions
for the speaker is about the presentation technique : silence for a moment
before start speaking, eye contact. And the evaluator also believe that the
speaker could elaborate more for words that are not too specific like : huge,
cheap (how huge/cheap is it) and it's better to include some personal
experience.
II. Table Topics Session :
TM Jason, opening the table topic session with explained about
what exactly table topic session is.
TM Jason has already prepared slide for this session and topic with
so many quotes related to theme today, Consumerism with word of the day about
Shopaholic.

Reusing & recycling is better than downright consuming : TM Jackson said, he love
to see his son learn to recycling now at his school and he support him.
2. Guest : TM Glen
When will consumerism ever end ? TM Glen said doesn’t agree with that statement, because
for him if you wanna make your friend comfotable than you have to talk so
he/she will feel comfortable enough to talk to you.
3. Visiting from Motivators TMC : TM Muqsith
Picture of
consumerism about wants vs needs.
He said consumerism is about woman but you must know what
you need rather than what you want.
4. Member : TM Leni
What is your favorite cosumer product ? TM Leni said about what
kind of product she likes most to buy as like other women such as shoes, clooth
to support her performance. She doesn’t like to wear jewelery like ring
necklace and others like common women. She prefer to buy bags and shoes than
jewelery.
5. Member : TM Fadli
To be happy in life you must learn the difference between what
you want and what you need. TM Fadli said that
you need to know what the important in life.
