It is the best news...

I've been expecting this call for days... Still, it came as a surprise. Well, I mean it was a surprise to get the call and surprise of what the call was about.

What on earth am I talking about?!?!?!?!

I've finally got the confirmation that I've been selected as MC VP People Development of AIESEC in UAE for the year 2006/2007!!! Hew, that came as a relief. It has been a torture not knowing. I'm soooo happy & excited about the selection.

Actually, this has somewhat came to a full-circle. I first "met" Basma, the MCPe of AIESEC in UAE online, through matching a TN in the UAE. The person that put her in contact with me was, funny enough, my mentor (Thank you SuperYo). The one country that we discussed when I first considered an International MC term was... UAE. The way that I "stumbled" upon the MC application, and then couldn't download it for 1 week. Not to mention the worst luck ever that on the D-day of submitting application the electricity was out for 1 hour, eating into time that I already didn't have. Then the agonising wait of the telephone interview, and then the second interview... Anyways,today it has come to full-circle. All the "excitements" that went into this process were all worth it.

UAE will be a complete different experience. It will be a new beginnig. It will be a challenge. But I think I'm ready!

Anti-Valentine's Day!!!

I'm glad that Valentine's Day is over. So people can stop saying HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

This is one of the days in the year that is made to be more commercial than what it really means to be...

So STOP! Valentine's Day is over. Whether or not you screw up it doesn't matter. Because love shouldn't be decided by the action of just one day.
