Back Home - Padang

Hey AIESEC!

I'm finally back to Padang, after more than 1 month staying in Jakarta. It feels strange, now back to normal life, routine activities, college, AIESEC, household work, etc etc.

Even after I come back here, I still think a lot, and after a few times I realized how I changed. The life full of challenges in Jakarta has somehow made me stronger. I feel it when I have to go with public transportation again, go up and down the hills of UA, do things by your own, well not saying that I don't used to do that before, but now it's just a different feeling I have. I used to complaint everytime I faced difficulties or when things go different with what I expected. But now, everything seems to be so easy. And I love the way I can see things now :)

I consider this a little like exchange experience. Eventhough I just stay in another city in the same country, the reality in each cities are different. And even in the short range of time, as long as you can values every learning you got, you can also experience that wonderfull change...it's great, you should try yourslef ;)

So anyone interested to join the one/two weeks as MCVP in Jakarta? Come on, grab it!!! You will learn a lot! I've just mentioned the life-changing experience living in another city, not yet the life-changing experience as an MC, which is actually better! You shouldn't miss the opportunity! Or, maybe someone is thinking to o on exchange? ;)

It's up to you...

Cheers from the Padang city, where you can see the sunset from the beach, the people are nice, the weather is hot, and the campus is up the hill :)

(Papi Kucluk, I took yoour words...hehe)

Talk show in Senayan City

MCP (Aidy), MC VP XD (Ap), MC VP IS (David) were going to Senayan City and we visit the NGO exihibition. We had change to be one of the speakers from the small guest list that attend the session. The session objectives are environmental issues in Indonesia and the society awareness toward it. The discussion also present Dee (the novelist) to present the idea about environment.

IC Global Village

Hey.. Hey.. Global Villagers! I truly happie to be there again in the biggest Global Village in AIESEC. During the IC journey. Global village is the most excited day along the way of IC! Of course there are many many thousand moment of the life.

In the global village the Asia Pacific Growth Network (APGN) is the GN with the most crazy GN with many stuffs and souvenir. Luckily Indonesia booth was on the same table and we were crazy to take photos with all people from all the countries but I can say we will break AIESEC Guieness Book of Record if we can do it, Oh ya truly it's priority but there are many other important things should be considered such as exchange our souvenir with other countries and took as food as we can from each booth. Uh yeahh... that's the best part.

LC coach in MC Flat

LC UI has LC coach with MC VP XD in MC flat and glad to have a lot of guest working together in MC flat. I really hope other LC can do the same thing. Personally I invite all LC EB and LC members who want to work with us to come to MC Flat.

It was truly happy day to work during a lot of people get to together! (GETTING HOT!) Uh yeah! HOTTER and GET BURNT!

Look all the LC UI EB looked so passionate to work with us in the MC flat during that day.

3rd Day....End of the GN pre Meeting

aaah..guys,
Today (20 August) GN pre-meeting will be done. We are exited for tomorrow because tomorrow IC will be start!
In the closing plenary, Sherly (AP director) said that IC is the biggest conference in AIESEC, more than 650 delegates, 100 country, etc..etc..but..... even there are a lot of people, even you know a lot of people, but sometime u will feel alone!
hmmm....do you know guys??at the moment I think Sherly is COOL!!!She's give a lot of inspire moment.



Tonite,
The IC party was started, out door party! in the tennis court, there are a lot of beer and DJ.
humm.....now, i'm understand what the meaning of WORK HARD PARTY HARD!

The best moment in life

When people said how is it there?

Aidy said from Turkey: Yeah it's so cool and everything is AMAZING!

everybody said around the world said: Yes, of course IT IS IC!

HONESTLY I TELL You It's the best moment in life. Even I had never dreamt about it before in my life and it's totally awesome.

TRAVEL TIME!

MC team (Aidy, David, Irma, Iin) was going for IC in different tracks. Iin from Switzerland and three people from Jakarta. It's so nice to see four people Indonesia finally show up in IC again with quite big number of delegation.

The delegate from Indonesia went on 16th August 2007 and we were strongly encouraging by the fact that we left the country when our country has independence celebration and we keep in our mind and promise we will do the best for Indonesia.

We had 2 transits. 1.5 hours in Singapore and 9 hours in Dubai and we count down the time until we arrived in Istanbul Turkey. We were arriving at 12 midnight and finally we found that finally IC is coming to US.

Premeeting

The MCP premeeting and GN premeeting are awesome. The first day is MCP premeeting when AI explain their plan and what is the content of the IC in the big picture. I really feel honoured in the room with 100 president from 100 countries. Gabitza was explaining clearly what are the objectives and the target of the year.

The second day and the third day are the most hectic day. Each of Growth Network were working to finalize the initiative plan and break it down to the milestone, action steps and commitment of each countries to execute it. I guess by each of opportunities that are coming to us, will bring a lot of leverage for AIESEC Indonesia performance in the near future. Really looking forward you all join IC live 2007.

to be continued.....

Moments on the Harbor (or hill)
Its the coolest venue ever!! Not only because its a 3 star hotel, but its truly cool, its rain everyday. I still questioning, are they really need air conditioner?mm...for sure, thanx OCs for the place.

We have some external speaker for this conference. A representative from health department, who support our PBOX; Mr. Aim Zein, who gives us basic knowledge about tourism, entrepreneur and environment; and Liv Flores from REAL ACAD Singapore, you're so inspiring. thank you our beloved external :)

Are you still remember some leadership tips from Jack Sparrow?
Are you excited meet Oprah live?

or are you still remember the cheerleader show?
or the Pirates party?
sometime we need some exercise although in the midnight ^O^

NC 1 is our momentum to think are we want to challenge ourselves to get out from our comfort zone? show your awareness and keep your proactive to our Legalization process, new Compendium, governance and accountability to realize the AIESEC Indonesia 2010.
Lets the journey begin; Let makes our history NOW!!!

National Conference I sense

It's so amazing when I just remind what happened in National Conference I in Bukittinggi.

One week before I came there, It's really hard time for me to handle things because too many technical things in front of the MC team which was heavy enough just because we didn't expect that one of MC international were late and one of the MC VP has hospitalized.
Personally I has learned a lot from the process but in the end it's closed beautifully by the all of contributors. Chair, Externals, OC, MC team, Delegates, Worker in the venue, LC UA, LC UB, LC UD, LC UI, LC UP, LC US, Bus Driver, Car's Travel drivers, and the SG representatives.

Thank you thank you for LC UA to make us experience the Conference that I said hotel not venue. It's truly amazing venue and thank you for all the delegates that come to the National Conference I. It was really a blast for AIESEC Indonesia feel the unity in AIESEC and let us mark this one as our legacy.
Oh ya Congratulation for Andra, as the captain for this national Conference I. We are really expect there are more people that show their passion and such a beautiful contribution to bring positive environment in the great event.

This National Conference I is the beginning and beautiful moment when we think HOW, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and WHO. They are truly important for us to achieve the best in our term and we were blessed to know more one thing important above anything else, it's a matter of WHY?


It's a matter we know WHY we are doing all of this.
WHY?
