I think its quite apt that i start my blogging off with two quotes from Robert Frost, the first one, "Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening" is one of my favourite poems and the last two lines kind of signifies what i am feeling right now.
3 years ago i wouldnt have believed it if someone told me that i will be leaving my family, home, friends, country and go to another alien land and stay there for 1 whole year... i would have probably thought that person is totally mad or is totally trying to screw around. Sometimes when i sit and think (this is something i do a lot) i get surprised, sometimes it seems like a very long dream, and i wish that i dont wake up from this any time soon.
When i got selected on to the MC of AIESEC Indonesia, i was trilled, i only thought about how exciting and fun its going to be leaving here and working in AIESEC full time, but i never really gave it a complete thought, i didnt think about the problems i will face, the new challenges i have to over come, the things i have to do on a daily basis which i have never done before. Actually, come to think of it i am glad i didnt or else i think i would have 'chickened out.'
When during one of my conversations with Geets, she told me it wont be always easy and i will be facing new things everyday and i need to deal with them, i didnt really pay too much attention to that... but now i see she is absolutely right.
So far i cant measure what i have got professional or in relation to AIESEC out of this term, however i have discovered other things that have are so intangible or was not too relevant before, but now i see that these discoveries will actually help me in the future and i am glad that i discovered them by myself and didnt know about it before. To summaries what these discoveries are i think the following words are enough - LEARNING TO BE INDEPENDENT
