Day with Jacob
-Today (17-2-2008), I and Jacob went around for Colombo city visit. Around 12 I picked him and we both went to a money exchange center and we exchanged his money. Today 1 Euro is equal to 157 SLR.
Then we went to Majestic City, and we did a small shopping around the shopping mall. After that we went to Gangarama, where we visited the Buddhist temple. It’s a beautiful place; also there is a place nearby, which is a small land in the lake. (Hint: It’s a famous place for lovers).
Now I need to take him to a new trainee house, so bye for now. Catch ya later.
I was browsing books in Cargill’s book shop, Majestic city. Suddenly, my phone started to vibrate..!!! CLI says “yohan Calling….”
I came out and answered the phone. “Mayu! Where are you?”
“I’m in MC yohan. What’s up?”
“come to food court”
“Okies” I cut the phone and went to food court.
There you go.. some of my AIESEC friends came along with yohan (Ashan, Dinusha, Lakmini, Chameendra, Shanika, Nadi).
“Wow.. so it’s gonna be a day out with AIESECers?”
“yep.. Ashan answered”
This is how I joined with this group. Later we had our lunch in MC and left to Mt. Laviniya around 3. We stayed in the beach till 6.30. Talked some crab and had enough fun!!!
Can’t forget this day in my life another beautiful memory brought by AIESEC
On may 31st , 12 o clock, one of the most beautiful moment in my life. Yep… my EB term has begun.
That night was awesome and we had hell lot of fun. We were finding different cultures and then we were making fruit salad. Anyway our group has won the best Fruit makers award. Thanx to the judges.
I should also talk about the crush stories.. Whoa... it was a nice gossiping... I found that each and every people have crush in their life… Guys and Gals... Don’t worry… there is one waiting for you... ;)
Each EB, MC, NST people were making inspiring speeches. It gave us the confidence that we’ll rock in this term for sure.
Here I’d like to take this opportunity to thank, YOU KNOW WHO, for being the spirit of our LC. :)
There is no bound for AIESEC experience; this is what I learned from the NATCON 2007. Since I missed the NLDS, it was my first AIESEC conference and I’d say it’s awesome.
I learned hell lot of things from this seminar. I come to know many new AIESECers, specially the new set of people from Colombo!!!! .
The hero, Robin hood, chair of the NATCON 2007 is Willy!. Hey guy.. it was amazing, the way you conduct the session, the way you interacted with us… it’s cool machang!!! Thanks a lot!!! AIESEC Sri Lanka won’t forget you!!!
We had a Avurudu party and CN won the tug-of-war.. Yipee!!! We beat the CS!!!! Ha.. ha.. ha..
If we talk about the awarding ceremony, it’s again an unforgettable event. CN rocked the house. Another happy award was the award given to my friend Nilanka, the AIESEC value award.. Cool machan!!! Way to go!!!
Our PBOX selected as the best PBOX and we were flying in the air!!! Thanks a lot.. thanks a lot to each and everyone those who guided us!!! Specially madu and Thilanka! It’s them.. they are the heroines of our LC!!!
Finally I got one Congress award.. OMG do you really thing I’m socially responsible? Huh?!!! Thank you guys for vote for me. Thanks!!! I’m sure that certificate and the sugar cubes will stay with me for the rest of my life. I could have wrote more sugar cubes.. I never thought that I gonna get this much of sugar cubes!!! Thanks !! thanks!!!
Closing planery was very touching and tears trembling in my eyes! We gonna miss Sujith aiya and Sasha. AIESEC Sri Lanka gonna miss you a lot guys!!!
All in all it was a nice experience with wonderfull people! Thanks to OC and faci!!! I love you guys!!!!
April 20 – 22, we went to Galle for the National Planning meeting. We gathered in Fort railway station and headed towards Galle. I was bit late but managed to be there around 8:15 A.M. around 12 O clock we made to Galle station and had our lunch in Galle town. Then we move to Unavatunna.. It is a wonderful place. Those sandy beaches and rocks recalled my memories in Trincomalee. Later in a hall we had our planning sessions. Everything went fine and we have done planning. Special thanks to MC and elected MC. They have planned well for the NPM and guided us towards the path. Btw I learned some AIESEC dance as well like Shamur and lot more!!! Yipee..!! thanx for it…!!!
As a newly elected EB member I feel more responsible and I gotta do a lot for my LC and Country. Thanks to CS and JLC for making this event into a successful occasion. In my point of view all the LCs and MC have done well and we gonna rock in coming term!!!!! With love, Mayu.
I spent another full day usefully in AIESEC Sri Lanka office; we had our PBOX meeting, EB meeting and an EB meeting with Sahan aiya. We made alterations in our budget and we brought down the cost. We found that we need to pay more attention in finding financial partner and Trainees for our PBOX! Rajith Aiya helped us to cut down the cost and he gave us good ideas to take our PBOX forward! Our thanks goes to Rajith aiya!!!!! As usual Madhu and Thilanka also helped us.
Then we had our EB meeting with our beloved LCP Thilanka. We were talking abt some old stories happed in our LC and around 4 we went for the meeting with our Elected MCP Shahan aiya. He was preparing us for the NPM. He gave us a clear picture of AIESEC and its core work, further more he elaborated about the AIESEC 2010 plan. All in all it was a wonderful day which I spent in the office. I feel more responsible and I gotta do a lot for my LC and my Country.
