Delegate Diary
August 7th
Dear Diary, I have started to get used to all the screaming and dancing, it actually turns out to be kind of fun. I don’t think I have ever made such a fool of myself in my life before, but weirdly enough it makes me feel really good. Besides, today we finally got down to serious business - committee work. It is so interesting to hear everyone's opinions and all the stuff people have prepared. It is really amazing just how smart everyone is! To be honest, there was one point today at which I hadn’t had anything to say for more than an hour and I started to feel really excluded and bad about myself. Then this one girl on my committee made a comment with which I just could not agree! It was complete nonsense to me, I just had to say something! So I jumped in and told her everything I had on my mind but she refused to listen to me! And everyone seemed to agree with her so I felt so frustrated I almost started crying. But then our chair stepped in and talked about how both of our ideas are actually the same thing, just coming from a different perspective. By now I feel so silly that I got angry. Always remember that there are many sides to a story! I should really try to keep my temper, trying to get your point across is really hard while you have tears dripping all over the flip chart. Anyway, it turns out my committee topic is a lot more interesting than I thought. I am definitely going to read more about it when I get home. But first, let me write a speech for General Assembly! Bye Diary.
