An evening full o suprises.

Do you know how good if feels to go to an AIESEC event and not being involved in his organization when you are in the OC????? Well last night, this is exactly what I experienced.

I got to the Student’s House and I saw lots of red small people, running around, doing stuff that I was suposed to do. In the meanwhile, I was enjoying and waiting for the event to start. Incredible feeling. I was surprised to see so many people in the room. Parents, friends of friends, AIESEC-ers. And with a small delay, the evening started. I could not believe my eyes. The participants were doing it all by themselves. And they were doing it great. They were talking so free on the stage as if they were doing this for a living. They organised the agenda with small plays and lovely moments to entertain the guests, card tricks, roll calls, everything. Now I am wondering, was this implication because of the trainees they had, or because of the quality of the project? Did we influence them that much? Personaly I want to believe that YES, all together we’ve done a great job. I’m positive they have a lot of qualities and skills, they just need someone to believe in them and help a little bit.

And like one of the participants said: “The chance to be apart in a project like GROW is ONE”  but also the chance of organizing a project like GROW, of meeting so many extraordinary people, of having such a surprize after 4 months of work is ONE.

I cannot wait for the next edition.
