I. Prepared Speech Session

1.      BM#2          : Organize Your Speech

         Speaker     : TM Juan

         Title           : “Buy Happiness”

TM Juan’s speech tells about things that could buy happiness. He mentioned that money is not always become a guarantee to make you happy, but sometimes it will makes you to be more anti-social. Based on some research he found, the reason of what makes people happy are mostly because they spend their money to other people, because the real happiness lies in sharing what you’ve got to each others. TM Juan mentions 3 things to make us happy: “invest” your money to those who needs help and don’t let the money change your personality. TM Juan ended up his speech by making a closing statement “Money can be a blessed or a cursed. It all depends on how you spend it”

2.      BM#3          : Get to the Point

         Speaker     : TM Hidayat

         Title           : “Anchoring”

TM Hidayat’s speech tells about the learning process in human activities. He informed us that there are many things human can do to always remember what they have learned, not only from what they read, but also from what they smell, what they taste, what they see, what they touch, and even what they do. Based on the research that TM Hidayat found, the most effective in remembering of what you learned is through reading and applied it at the same time, because you are using all of your senses to capture of what you learned and all of these senses will send the information to your brain. This method is what we called “Anchoring”. At the end of his speech, he hopes that this information could revolutionize our way in learning things.

         Speaker     : TM Rahmat Hidayat

         Title           : “Homecoming”

TM Rahmat Hidayat’s (TM Mato) speech tells about the good things that we get from homecoming (or in Bahasa means “Mudik”). At first, TM Mato felt that homecoming is not an important things to do in Lebaran day, because it’s not only tiring, but also he don’t want to be asked about his marriage plan, his career, and anything else that makes him feels like didn’t want to go home. But based on what his friend’s experience, almost all of his friends were claimed that the benefit of homecoming is that you will find an experience that you will never get when you just stayed in Jakarta, because there are so many interesting places in your original home.

         Title           : “You Don’t Know About That Junk”

TM Barbara’s speech tells about some facts that we don’t know about drinking juice. TM Barbara remind us to be more careful about drinking juice. She informed us that the vitamin contained in a juice are sensitive with air and light, so if you want to get the most benefit of vitamin and mineral inside of juice, you have to drink it soon after you make it. Based on the book “Diet to Prevent the Cancer” by Dr. Oz, she informed us to consume vitamin because vitamin is free from calories.
