2nd SAC = 2nd AIESEC internship

I am really tired now. I am exhausted after the packed up schedule week.

First I have 2 report of main project to submit and 2 other presentations on this very final week of the semester. And today I am in the SAC.

Oh yes I went for SAC for my 2nd internship under AIESEC. I know this may sound so crazy. I have just confirmed about this SAC on friday evening and I actually sat for it on saturday morning. I was rushing to complete the forms, wrote an essay for that and prepared my resume. So I only managed to get on bed at about 3am and woke up at at 7am.

It was scheduled to start at 9am but however we only managed to start at about 9.30am coz few of our panelists could not make it on time...Malaysian time right? well may be not....haha

Things has changed pretty much. Many protocols and red tape. We have all in 3 round. 1st is individual presentation on a current issue where I was given the topic on illegal and unethical abortion.

Then in the 2nd round, we have a group discussion on giving away free condom to prevent HIV/AIDS. Well personally, I didn't agreed to it in a whole. I believe free condom is not the best solution here considering that the majority cases of HIV/AIDS transmission in Malaysia is through the sharing of needle. So I believed that instead of preventing AIDS, we will ended up having more pre-maritial sex and illegal abbortion issue. There are many other steps that can be taken to prevent HIV/AIDS, such as sex education, creating awareness on HIV/AIDS, religious and etc.

Finally in the 3rd and also the last round, we had interview session. Many questions were thrown to us. As for me, most of them were about my past internship experience and my capability to adapt to a new culture and my role as an AIESEC and Malaysia ambassador.

Phey....finally I passed...such a relieve after a whole hectic week. Am looking forward to my internship but let's not day dream now...my final examination is up next week...

Here I wanna thank all my supportive family and friends...
