Every Day

Every Day started yesterday, we are falling behind.

How many lifes have you changed today? If it's less than 2, then what did you do today? If you didn't even change your own, then why are you here?

Are you being effective?

Resume

I had to update my resume, which has been on my to do list for a while, & I finally finished it! It was a lot harder to do than I thought it would be because the whole time if felt like I was showing off & trying to sell myself, saying, as if this piece of paper was saying this is why i'm so great. It is probably because for the past couple of years I have been trying to sell the idea of employing an intern & why that is the better option for organizations.

Application!

Have you ever read the application you submitted for your current position? I think there's a lot to be learnt be being reminded of who you where & what you were thinking when you wrote it. I did this while continuing to prepare for my turnover.

Also, if anyone sees someone from the MC, give them a hug! They have been working SO hard to put on incredible RCs

And, I better start watching what I say, thanks to Kyle for pointing out that searching for "AIESEC Canada" (& scrolling down a little) links you to this blog!

BOARD MEETING!!!

OMG!!!

This is a pretty big deal, let me set it up for you.

So, I got up later than usual since I don't have class until later today. It is after 9am so i'm checking some email since I could start getting busness related emails (being business hours)

Then I get a phone call. And i'm like, who would call this early & I recognize the number, it's someone from AIESEC Canada!!!

It was TAI!!!

She mentioned our meeting for tomorrow & I thought she was going to cancel or reduce the time, but she said there was something else, I AM INVITED TO THIS SATURDAY'S BOARD MEETING!!!

So i'm QUITE excited, but then get nervous as I get more details. Now, for those of you who don't know: I love the Board. They do SO much for us & all because they truly believe in this organization. This is why I videotaped the entire Supervisory Group session at IC & why I had to dress up for the Alumni Hall of Fame session (I would have dressed up for this Board meeting, I asked Tai, she said I should, the MC dresses business formal as well). I read the minutes of the Board meetings & love how they truly hold us accountable to our work. I try not to bother the MC close to when they have Board meetings since they have their normal work & then also have to prepare for the intense meeting.

I'm going over ALL my work to prepare! SO EXCITED!!!
