And this is my favorite. Xie xie zhang fangqing :)

It's really touch my heart when I teach the children. They are really poor. Every day I always see they wear same clothes. They must walk so far away to reach the school. But it doesn't matter for them. They have spirit to study. They really want to change their life. This experience make me so sad, happy and everything. It's like I don't believe I can have experience like this.

When I had local conference AIESEC UI the local committee give me about AIESEC values.

This is the AIESEC values:

Activating Leadership

Demonstrating Integrity

Living Diversity

.

Enjoying Participation

Striving for Excellence

Acting Sustainably

I ask to my self, Is it true? AIESEC can give that value for me? And after I go exchange, ya I really feel the values. Ya they are true. 

I feel I can lead my self and not depend to other person. I really can demonstrate integrity with to be honest and respect with the other. I can face the diversity , I can respect to other culture . I really enjoy with all of activity in AIESEC. I always try my best and being creative. And I want to keep that value and always try to be a better person 

Thank you AIESEC , you really change my life

Thank you for this one time in a life changing experience

Hello all :) today i want to share again about my story in Guizhou, 

Yaaa, after I had finished all of schedules in dalian . We went together to guizhou, to start our project : taught children in rural areas.

We must took 2 trains to went there. First, from dalian to zhengzou and zhengzou to guiyang, and then we took bus until guizhou.

And then, I'm really surprised when we arrived. It's really really in deep deep mountain. It's so beautiful.

The scenery from the class room, so beautiful

In front of class room

And then we put our luggagge to the class room. Ya, this school was very poor so they don't have room with bed and bathroom. So, we must sleep at the classroom. 

But no problem, it will be the first time I sleep in the table of classroom :p

Our kitchen :) We're so creative, right? haha we make over the class room

Eat together (in that day i was fasting)

Chinese volunteer, they really like a twin. And that table behind them it's our bed :) You must feel the sensation sleep at the table, it's really fun, if you move you will hear some strange sound haha.

After that day, in the morning we visit student's home to announced all of student we have class tomorrow at 9 am. From the school until their home it's really far away. I can't imagine how can they go to the school everyday.

That children help her parent to pick vegetable.

Took picture together with my energetic Hadeer, and my best Carol

In 1st august, we start taught the children, in the first class, we only asked them to introduce their self. And with my basic mandarin, I asked their name. It's really exciting. I was so happy to met the student

Me : Ni jiao shenme mingzi? (what's your name?)

Cutest kid in the school

All EPs wrote their name. I wrote my name in Chinese :p

I stayed for 4 weeks in their apartment. They are so kind, I really love them. The woman that always take care of me, her name is Ms Wang. And his husband's name is ... I don't know haha I just called him Mr wang . And the cute boy, his name is tian tian (I've told you before). 

Their job are DOCTOR. Ya i'm so lucky, so i can communicate easily with them and talk many things abouth health. 

So, This is the picture of me and them.

They are really really nice, They always take care of me when I stayed at their home. They gave me breakfast (bread and yoghurt, I really like it !) and dinner every day. And almost every dinner, we ate together and shared so many things, about indonesian's culture, chinese's culture, my family, diseases in china, their job and so many things.

And now, I really miss them :( Thank you so much ms wang and mr wang,  I love you all.

At chinese restaurant.

I never imagine before that I can feel this experience. New friends from another country. New experience. New of me, because in China I braver than before, and more independence. New perception that we can solve all the problem if we believe that we can. New habit to stop complaining, really. in this experience I learn to stop complaining about anything, I just push my self to do something than only complain. New family Mr Wang , Ms Wang and Tian Tian. And also New Concept to continue my life : Always be brave, just believe that you can do that! 

Thank You AIESEC . You really change my life !! And also change me to be a better person
