...I've been waiting the recruitment of AIESEC since last February in 2011 and AIESEC form has been on my hand since two weeks ago. But this day, I'm still not filling this form. I have some problems that always made me confused each I'll get started to fill this form. ya! there are some things to think deeper before I ask the signature of my father.
Problems :
1. I have a class schedule that is not right yet in this semester. And I still must divide my time with other activities. *if I'm accepted
2. I have a new sister and she is baby. There is a feeling to be responsible more for now!!!
3. And the last, Last year there were 800 participants who applied and maybe in this year will more than before. I THINK IT WILL BE DIFFICULT FOR ME. But this is one of my desires since I knew AIESEC in last February.
If asked, Why do you want to join AIESEC and AIESEC exchange program?
"I wanna join with AIESEC because I think, I'll get more experiences in there, so that I could contribute more in the society (especially in my area). Like my visions, to maximize my potentials, to empower other and to contibute back to my society. And I think with I join AIESEC, my potentials will pursed and my leadership skill will increase."
I think, to contribute we must knowledgeable. If we look at the procedures for a leader, we'll ask a question "What kind of knowledge that will we give, if we are not knowledgeable?". Read many positive books may very well, but I need more activities and references in a non-profit organization. discussions with different people from different circles. Moreover with a country that has a different cultural. And maybe by making many links and friends everywhere, I'll get a chance to realize my dreams one by one. Amen.
What should I do ? My spirit slightly decreased by looking at my current condition. Love and worries a family had tied my wings long time ago. And my facebook status that I created on 02 August at 21:22 via Mobile "Ma, Pa.. terimakasih telah melihat tanpa mengawasi, mengingatkan tanpa harus bersuara, membuatkan kandang tapi juga tetap membiarkan terbang bebas. I do love you. More than you ever know. And I know, I'm not a good sister. But I try to do my best. :')" actually it's just the biggest hope for me in one day. Amen.
Hmmm, It's hard decision... I just have to prove my parents that I've grown up.
Well, you got a really tough decision to make here. I will not try to give you a solution. As I told you, the solution is in your head, and I recommend you to let it guide you along, so you will not regret it later or blame on somebody/something. But, let me give you some clues to solve your problem.
ReplyDelete1. make a balance for which much worthier between your class plus your current activities against the experience you will get in AIESEC programs.
2. you're not fair if you feel that your sister is a barrier for what you want to do. I believe your sister will wish you the best, so will you for her. I believe also that she doesn't deserve to be blamed on when you miss your valuable chance, neither do you when she does the same. You have to believe your parents more that they take care of your sister well.
3. IMHO, what you wrote was not completed. You should wrote "I THINK IT WILL BE DIFFICULT FOR ME AND FOR THEM AS WELL.",...and why do you feel defeated before you even start to fight? Remember, life is not about win or lose. It's about are we going to fight or just sit being nice and get nothing!
So, in my perspective, no 2 and 3 are not real problems. You may have a different point of view, and I respect that. The real problem are no. 1: and the most important "new no.2" : Do you really want it?. No. 1 is about what your head tells you, and new No.2 is about what your heart wants to.
Ganbare my fellow Maleberian! I always wish you the best.
Doumo arigatou gozaimashita Dr. Fadilah Hasim. You always inspire me. :'
