MoM 12 May: A Month of May
The theme for the meeting was “A Month of May” and was hosted by none other than our very own VP of Education, CC Rina. The meeting theme was centered around seasons and the fact that this month was a month of growth and new beginnings.
The table topics session, which was conducted by TM Helda, was very entertaining and had several eager participants, who were asked to give impromptu speeches on objects in small bottles. These ranged from peanuts to a ladies wrist watch.
For the prepared speech session the first speaker was our Division I Governor, DTM Arlan, who gave an educational session on how to give a speech. It was particularly useful considering how the opening of your speech paves the way for the rest of your talk.
The next speaker was our Area G3 governor, ACB ALB David, who was doing his Touching Story project, from the Advanced Storytelling manual. His speech was about a young girl who dared to dream a dream about overcoming the many difficulties in her life and making the world just a little bit better … and actually succeeded. He was evaluated by CC Billy, our VP of Membership.
The final presenter for the evening was the Division G International Speech winner and visiting Toastmaster, TM Fellysia, who was doing her Your Body Speaks project, from the Basic Manual. She shared about several defining moments and events in her life which made her into the person that she is today. She was evaluated by our club president, ACB Niken.
The position for best Table Topics speaker for the evening was shared between ACB ALB Martin and TM Andi. The best evaluator was ACB Niken. Finally, the person who won the most coveted award, the best prepared speaker of the evening, was TM Fellysia.
Overall, it was a fun and eventful meeting, not to mention we’ve got an enthusiastic new member on board: TM Andi

MoM 28 Apr: Enjoy Life
What a joyous meeting we had! This time we were exposed to many different and new foods, we never had previously, including Chicken Satay (^yummy^). The meeting theme was simple yet joyous – “Enjoy Life”. It really suited to all of us and helped us to remind ourselves about how we’ve lived our life. As the Toastmasters of the night, we had a cool laid back guy to lead the program, CC Rama Tidball.
The Table Topics session was led by CC Billy Djunaidi, who believes in “don’t think, just do it” motto. Although the motto sounded bit dangerous, but it was perfect with the impromptu talk session, especially to guest participants: Jensen, Andreas, Ferry, and Merry.
There were 3 Prepared Speech speakers. First, TM Ronald began with his BM#6 (Vocal Variety) project. Through his speech, he inspired everyone to believe that we all have hero potential in within. So regardless who we are, we are capable to help to make an impact in this very world. To conclude his speech, he sang a portion of Mariah Carey’s famous song: HERO
The second speaker was CC Niken, who talked on the inconvenient truth about some ‘convenient habits’ in public space. In her speech, she aimed to generate laughter by bringing the issue of cutting nails on train, ‘digging gold’ and indiscriminate fart. By completing this project, CC NIken now achieved a new title as Advanced Communicator Bronze.
The third speaker was ACB CL Martin. He delivered “Speak Off the Cuff” project, in which he had to talk for 5-7mins on 1 out of 5 topics that he was familiar with. What .made it more interesting was the exact topic he talked about was decided on the spot by his evaluator, DTM Arlan Setiawan. On this occasion, ACB CL Martin brought us back to his University year, where he started to gain interest with Japanese Culture.
On top of the prepared speech speaker, after quite some time, we finally had an educational session again. This time, the topic was “Creating the Best Climate” and it was delivered by our seasoned Toastmasters: ACG CL Boon. During the session, he shared many of his experience on how to keep the club’s environment great for everyone attending the meeting.
Before we closed the meeting this time, we had many great announcements:
• Having delivered an educational session in March, now ACB CL Martin has attained a new leadership title: Advanced Leader Bronze. So now, his full title is ACB ALB Martin Hendriadi
• As per our plan in the last 10 months, finally Surabaya Toastmasters (we) have achieved 10 DCP points and will get President Distinguished Club (the highest award for TM Club).Many thanks for everyone’s effort for making this happened and as per our promise, we will celebrate this by having rafting together on Waisak Day
To our surprise, we also had 2 special cakes on that day, prepared by our fellow Toastmasters to celebrate our achievement. (The Chocolate cake is deliiiicious ^^)

MoM 14 Apr: The Magic of Believing
It was a very great evening with a great dinner too. For the first time, finally our club has soup as a dinner!! (^Sayur Asem^). As usual, CC Niken as President of our club started the meeting with her smiley face, then welcomed ACB CL Martin as the ToM of the night.
The meeting theme was “The Magic of Believing”. ACB CL Martin started with a motivational story: “People without goals will have low energy in their life, while people with goals will have overflowing energy to achieve the goals”. Just after that, all eyes were hooked on the venue’s door as a special lady went into the room - Lizza Hendriadi, who is none other than ACB CL Martin’s Mom ^______^
The next session was the Table Topics and it was conducted by ACB CLB David. It was a fun table topic with 2 guests joining it. CC Rina who volunteered at first started the session by telling how she wished to improve her piano skill before she die. Then, our guest, Edward told us his passion and love to music and how he wanted to be a musician if he could be anything in this world. Then another guest, Andi told us about his most favorite place and he told us it would be the place where he can feel the most comfortable at. Last but not least, ACB CL Martin told us his goal to lifelong learning, including becoming a better speaker.
Next, we had our Prepared Speech Session. First speaker was TM Agus who told us about his hardship while he was still child and how could he overcame that problem. Then our second speaker was CC Niken who reminded us to keep being yourself by sharing her story about her “Goldfish Girl” nickname. The last speaker was TM Billy who had completed his 10th speech on that day and got the CC title. He told us his personal story about his decision for his future life. Now TM Billy officially becomes Competent Communicator Billy.
In the middle of it there were 2 more guests coming from Carsurin and EF who came after the prepared speech sessions ended. Next we had the Evaluation Speech Session which was the last session. The evaluators gave the evaluation and feedbacks for all of the speakers.
Because we finished early than usual, ToM Martin asked to have an extra Impromptu Table Topic Session and made everyone else to participate then. First T/T speaker was TM Ronald who talked everything about Manchester United. The second T/T speaker was our guest, Fellysia who told us about her first love and how to play with them – turn out her first love is her cute puppy! And the last T/T speaker was our honorable guest, Lizza. The lady told us about her favourite food – savory bread. After that, the meeting ended right after CC Niken gave us announcement about our rafting date and place info. It was really a great meeting with a lot of great guests there.
