The Slightly Less Superficial Overview: Yeah. I am a this point where trying to capture the last 6 weeks in a “post” is, without questin, impossible. So, I’ll just reflect on one highlight from my time with my new family…

HEROES 2007, Malaysia

About 3 weeks ago, 60 delegates gathered from 12 countries/territories in Malaysia at a HEROES 2007 – its first year as an OFFICIAL AP GN CONFERENCE!!! .

Personally it was a thrill, this was my first conference in the AP GN! Sharon helped me through adapting to the AP conference culture, which is really different from my Canadian and other international experiences. Dances were MUCH more complicated (I was SO out of my league… sad, really). Evening activities were comfortably and happily dry and … scary (murderous Malaysians!! ;p) Sugar writing was an extremely disciplines and serious endeavor.

Overall I was honoured to facilitate with my entire AP GN Board and Sandy – MCP Malaysia, and our chair was unspeakable inspiring – thanks Janne! And by the end of the conference, we were all feeling empowered, proud (especially of the 25 matches and 15 future exchanges via LC partnerships set up, 40 exchanges with 60 delegates!?!??!), and just a little bit more… heroic.

(NOTE: Translation of clip, since its blurry: "HEY AIESEC! We're Making HEROES Happen!!" Followed by a stunning, beautiful cheer that may resemble a certain WENA cheer, but actually mirrors a Canadian cheer, of which the former MCP was happy to bestow... hehehehhehehe.)
