NTU's Welcome Tea 15 Aug 08
Oh no, I feel terrible for not writing a post on the welcome tea the moment my lovely LCP asked me to.
When I saw Xiao Min's post on our interview training, I thought: man, Wan Xin must have pestered her to write. Am I right, Xiao Min? haha
Anyway, before my dept starts getting busy, I shall now fulfil Wan Xin's request.
Basically, I was given the honour to be the emcee of this year's welcome tea. And our speakers were
1. Wan Xin, LCP 0809
- to introduce AIESEC and what we do in NTU
2. Zafirah, MCP 0506
-she talked about her professional development
3. Sharon, MCP 06-08
-talked about AIESEC's Global Learning Environment
4. Joseph, @ intern at UBS
- talked about his internship experience, and how being in AIESEC has helped him cope so far
And we danced some Portuguese tiger (martello?) dance and did the famous HK roll call. yay.
I must say the turn out wasn't spectacular since it was a Friday. And generally, Singaporeans (are lazy) don't enjoy attending welcome teas. I remember how it was like last year... If I hadn't arranged with Rachel beforehand, I would have skipped the welcome tea in 2007 and not join AIESEC at all. So Thank God I dragged my lazy ass down last year!!! Yeah, plus people wanted to go out to partee right?
The LT was a third full.. but that also meant better interaction and fortunately for us, the audience were a great bunch. They were responsive and spontaneous. The networking after the tea was pretty good too. Except I was so caught up in meeting the NTU AIESECers I have not met in the longest time!!! Esp the EVOLVE OC.
I did talk to a few potential new members and overall they were really impressed with the exposure AIESEC had to offer and if anything, they were worried they won't be able to get into our fabulous organisation. So anyway, the application period has ended. We have shortlisted our candidates and the interviews start tonight. So let's see who will get in in the end. =D
And also, who will Wan Xin approach next to blog about the interviews... haha!
peace out.
<3 AIESEC!
