Exciting times

Yesterday evening the long awaited EB-elections took place. During the last weeks I was reflecting a lot about my future in AIESEC, about my visions and ideas for the LC, about my goals for a possible term and what really matters to me. No wonder that I was nervous before I had to go on "stage", deliver my speech and go through the Q & A. It was very important for me to convince the members, the EB and the MC VPs present. I wanted to show them why I made the decision to run for the LCP-position, what my goals are and why I'm the right person for this job. I'm so happy that eveything went well and according to the feedback I got people liked my speech and my answers in the Q & A. It was simply great to be elected as LCP! Still now I'm excited, thrilled...

Now I'm very motivated to start working. I would like to share my ideas with the great EB elect, have discussions about the future of the LC and develop strategies. I'm looking forward to the transition, to working with the MC and to simply everything that may come. There will be challenges, conflicts, difficult times - that's for sure. But that's part of the whole EB-experience and the intensive learning that's waiting for me. I really hope I can keep up the enthusiasm I'm having for the job right now!

Being that enthusiastic also has its bad sides, I'm totally neglecting my studies, even though I have exams in less than five weeks and should be studying. It's just hard not to be thinking about AIESEC, about the EB, about the future...
