As my promise before, i will start writing about my exchange experience in Busan, South Korea. You guys must be very curious, how can i get that opportunity, right? so its because of AIESEC. There is local committe in my campus and they opened an opportunity to be Indonesian Ambassador for Winter Project. Actually i just dont know what to do at that project but deep in my heart i want to get the opportunity only for travelling in Korea with cheap price. I registered my data and fill the form. I got selected as candidate after several days. After that i have to do the interview with AIESEC Member. At that time i just so damn nervous because my English is very bad and the other candidates are very fluent in English. My answer at that time was not really good because i think that i'm too childish about the answer. But, God opened His way. I got accepted into next stage. In this stage i have to search for the project, apply and having interview with the local committee in that country.
The first one that i tried to apply was in Korea. of course Korea! I sent them like more than 20 emails but there was no answer. I started to get afraid and try my luck in another country Czech Republic. The local committee was very fast respond. They asked me for interview. I tried to have interview for 3 different city in Czech. Then, i also got inteviewed by Romania's local committee. I thought that i already did very well in interview but the result were not nice. They reject me. Then i started to feel anxious because at that time it was already at the end of November and i havent got the project yet. I realized that my English is very bad so maybe Europe country like Czech & Romania is not suitable for me. After that i tried my luck in Asian country. I started with China, Turkey and Philiphine. I didnt do any interview with the Turkish and Philipians because the schedule didnt met and they were very stubborn about schedule. They asked me to cancel my schedule just for the interview so i said no, thanks! Then i moved to China. China has a lot of local committee and so many projects. At that time i just hope to get one project everywhere! I have interview and it was very nice conversation. The result was nice too...... I got accepted!
I'm happy to hear that but deep in my heart i was hoping for Korea. My manager told me to accept the one in China but my heart was so hard to accept. I dragged a lot. Every time the local manager asked me if i already sign the notes or not, i didnt even read the chats. I was so confused at that time. Then suddenly my manager sent me the invitation from AIESEC Pusan National University. I was so excited at that time. I tried again to register. The manager name is Stella Lee. She is very nice person and she is quiet fast respond. She asked me to have interview. I did the interview via skype. At that time i did it in my campus library. Many people looked at me so couriosly because i spoke English and my voice was very big. LOL :D
After that i prayed everyday and hope that miracle will happend. After one week passed...i got a mail
At that time i read the email at 3.00 AM and still in sleep mode. I was thinking that am i dreaming? then i just back to sleep again. In the morning, i read again about the email and realized that ITS NOT A DREAM! I GOT ACCEPTED! I GOT ACCEPTED IN KOREA!!! I jumped and roll in the bed so many times. I was so happy at that time. Oh my God! Thank you so much!
My journey didnt end at that announcement day. I still have to struggle to them to let me come late. The project start at Jan 8 but i still have exam at that time. I asked her for so many time to let me come late at Jan 13. But....this is the worst part. She didnt reply my emails about 1 week. I was so afraid that she will kicked me out of i come late. I waited and a little bit think about China's project that i got accepted. But deep in my heart, i believe Stella will let me come late...i even search for another project in Korea again. I didnt do any interview but i have to write so essay. I also got accepted with that project its in Seoul. But i dont know why my heart still waited for Stella's reply. I dont even care about the project in Seoul and seems like i avoid the manager everyday. Then after more than 1 week, i got reply and she said
OH MY GOD...
OH MY GOD...
at that time i want to scream KOREA, I'M COMING SOON!
