Finally! The breeze of competition...yalla!

Jordan is told to be a not really competitive country....and it is true (yeah, with my super competitive approach I was kind of struggling). But finally we have found challenge worth risking it! And hoping that whole AIESEC Jordan will join up!

Yeah, we are competing for the title of being THE STRONGEST EXPANSION in the whole GLOBAL AIESEC Network!!!! Muhahaha, something really worth running for! (well, you kind of already won if from 20-25 expansion countries you are far in the top 2 :P - but being the ONE, second to none....kind of appealing prize for me at least). And to see how much we take the challenge, here comes our message to Vietnam!!!

You think you are tigers, but you have seen us yet!!!

Tic - Tac

Tic-Tac....time is passing by without any notice. And also a long time passed since my last post.

A few important points were kind of missing from the flow of information from my side. For example my usual monthly notice...as it is already 4 months since I'm here in Jordan, tic-tac...

And also the last week was a crazy one. I was chatting with my sister and not being able to tell a lot, but then I just sat down and slowly memories came to my mind, reminding me that I do, did and will miss opportunities to tell my stories, so better to write down until I remember :P

So one thing, hard not to remember is that I moved from my old flat...from the cave as I called it. From a dark, at the end of the world flat with instable internet I moved to a flat what is full with light, a bit more noisy though, but with own internet, normal water and right next to university, meaning a looot of life, we always have someone over here, making it more like a center of life, with the privacy of an own room....so all in all I pretty much like it :)

The other kind of happening is that we had a radio interview, live on last Saturday, for a whole hour! The first radio streaming of AIESEC Jordan, yaaay. And also this was the result of an other appearance what we had in a major newspaper, that's how we were 'found'. And it is just the beginning, soon will be followed by a TV interview, also live :S That makes me though a bit worried, I'm used to interviews by now, but not really to life TV broadcasting for an hour, well, then this is time for it :)

So time is moving....this weekend we go for hiking with the team to Dana reserve. It is a natural reserve (nemzeti park :P)...meaning some sort of nice desert :) At least we are moving out a bit of Amman, which I was missing in the last few month. And I'm just hoping that soon all of our pretty problematic issues will get solved.

With work it seems we are moving quite ok....finally things look like moving out from a halt, the country is coming back online after Ramadan and Eid (I need to point out that it took 1,5 weeks...not mentioning the one month of Ramadan plus almost a week of Eid). But at least now it is moving, it is a good feeling. Also I'm working on the official blog of AIESEC Jordan (you can find it here: http://jordanaiesec.blogspot.com) I had a nice practice before on this blog :P But still it proved to be a challenge for half a day :)

Also an interesting piece of news is that the Hungarian President is visiting Jordan for a few days to "discuss bilateral ties between the two countries". Still it is something related to home, was nice to read, though I'm pretty much curious how this whole bilateral thingie will materialize. Anyways a few weeks ago I realized on a pack of mirelite vegetables that it was imported from Hungary...just a funny moment, I truly enjoyed. Here you can read about it (not the mirelite vegetables :P)

So these are the few things, just going on, time is ticking away, since the last post....someone might remind me of things I'm missing out :P
