The Impromptu Speech contest was the first event and Jat Rabago, being contestant number 1 for Area 11 had the opportunity to pick the topic. She selected the phrase "If the shoe fits, buy a pair in every color". She battled it out with Mauri Cabrido who initially was quite perplexed with the complexity of the quotation. Area 12 Table Topics contestants were Michelle Gojar, Edwin Villanueva, Fred Henry Marallag III, and Wyndale Wong.
Everyone had their funny bones tickled afterwards with the start of the Humorous Speaking contest. Unfortunately, Area 11 didn't have a contestant while Area 12 was in full tilt. Edwin Villanueva of the Maharlika Toastmasters Club talked about his being "promdi" in the city. Aris Magallanes of UP Manila TMC recalled his victory in some pageant in his province while Gary Chan of UEC narrated his misadventures in obtaining his badge of manhood. Johnny Uy of Manila Bay then revealed the reason why Erap is walking a certain way.
The International Speech Contest began with Area 11's "Mr. Pogi", Rolly Prudencio. Jat then explained the Jacob within all of us while Mauri showed everyone how to confront their problems the right way. Zoila Genato of Manila Bay then proved to everyone that her love for Pete is straight and true. Erika Nicolas of Maharlika explained the different stages in life.
Two rookies won their respective contests. Aris was chosen to be the funniest among the Area 12 TM's while Erika will represent Area 12 at the Division B International Speech Contest.
