It's been awhile since i've posted up an entry. Well one of the reasons was i was in Brazil a couple of weeks back for International Congress 2008(IC08). I spent 3 amazing weeks on a foreign land surrounded by people from more than 106 countries and not to mention spending a whole bucket full of cash. Why 106 countries?? That's because in AIESEC we are officially in 106 countries(not including the expansion countries).
It's hard to describe the experience. In fact i don't know how to describe it. IC08 to me wasn't that great of a conference. To tell you the truth, while during the conference i was measuring the impact IC08 has on me and i personally think Xcapade and Malaysian conferences gave me more impact. The funny thing is, I only started to feel the impact a few weeks after IC08. I wouldn't say that its a huge impact but it definitely was something. :) Being in a room with over 600 people and making friends from a different continent with totally opposite cultures. That's the diversity that the AIESEC network offers.
I had an opportunity... i grabbed it... and I'm satisfied with it
OR you could say it this way..
I worked hard in what i do and oppurtunity found me instead
The reason for this is.. opportunities do not come just like that. You are your opportunity. You need to lift your ass and do something before you get an opportunity. Create your opportunity and it will come. :)
Right now I'm burrowing myself into assignments and projects which i know nuts about. 2 weeks skipping classes. Is it worth all the trouble?? Yes it definitely was worth all the trouble :)
