after one Q of being not together

Hello, don't know who will read this post,
however I'm perfectly in the mood of writing here, even the year has passed, I have new team ,one more year of amazing and challenging work for better world and I still miss this strange UNLIMITED production of people with whom I've spend 12 months.

As all MC told us before , you will not speak often, you maybe will never see each other, or see on alumni events once 5 years. That's simply truth, but that makes me really miss our Bugorna 13, our big house and empty fridge.

my lovely MC team do you remember last Autumn, when a bit cold outside, exactly, as its now in Kiev and Lara sitting in veranda making promo for AP region?
So now, Rostya is in Proctor in Praha, being soooo busy and tired that I manage to ketch him only once on g-talk, probably I'm he only one who knows the latest up-dates of his life.
Sasha is in Inbev, now somewhere in Moscow for 1 month, Basnya work in Kiev and thanks God I have pleasure to see her almost every week )) Katya still studying, og my God.. so she will be old and still in University believe me :)) Lyubasik in her Norway, are you at least have any plans to visit us???
and Lara, oh she keeps to be amazing, selling indian interns all her term now she works and lives with milions of those funny guys :)

Buys and girls of UNLIMITED production I REALLY MISS YOU !!!!!

when you are not at home ...

Yee, when you are not at home at Bugorna 13 :)) You feel sad, at least I do, we left our house on 26th (some of us even before, some of us after, but that the point when official holidays started) and will gather all together on 12th of January, full of energy and power to change the world.

I'm at home right now, resting, doing simply nothing, and each day I remind those funny crazy faces that I will see soon, and spend with them 6 more months together in our beautiful house.

so this post was to say, Guys i miss you and love you very very much!!!!
See you on 12th in the early morning

ur TETYAN

Happy Holidays, my dears!!!

*Hey, you!!! Did you buy presents?!

Ukrainian girl in Malaysia ;)

Ok... I am not regular blogger at all, but some people (I mean tetyana mkhl;) is forcing me to share a bit my Malaysian XP.

So few things about Malaysia:

1. Firts impression was -'OMG I cannot breathe here!' Yeah, the air is so much humid that the feeling was that I am breathing hot water! Especially taught it was in the places where Malaysian people prepare food - it was even hotter there, as lots of them prepared food on open fire and meals are extremely spicy so there I was actually breathing HOT SPICY WATER!
2. And just few secs after my arrival I had one more reason that made me even harder to breathe - from the windows of KLIA express (the train that took me from the airport to Kuala-Lumpur) I saw the small part of that country - honestly it was love from the first sight! I felt myself as one of the characters of Disney's Jungle Book.

3. Another thing which I noticed about Malaysia is that it's extremely diverse and tolerant. On one street there can be Moslim woman with all her body covered by traditional clothes, Buddist monk and European student and nobody really cares what color of skin you have, what is your nationality or religion, nobody stares at you or tries to make a picture ! That made me feel very comfortable. As long as you speak English you'll feel yourself as at home in Malaysia!

4. One more really memorable moment: one day I was walking on the Petalang street in KL with some of the facis and I saw a woman. She was near 35 I suppose, not really beautiful, all her body was covered, you could see only her face and hands, she was just standing and watching people. She had amazing eyes and I had a feeling that she is burning me with her look. I stopped near her and Alex - faci from China told me that she was prostitute... I was shocked. That was different from Ukraine when such kind of women stand on the roads, half naked, and stop cars that are driving nearby.

MC free time

So, what we do when we have free time???
from last week half of MC team is watching "Doctor House" :)) It's Funny, as two year ago MC team was crazy about "Lost", and we day by day started to watch D. House.

Everything started with Luibas, then was me and now Kate :)) today Lara watched first episode :))

Sasha, Basnya and Rostya, what about you???

Ahh some more up-dates, Lara just came back from Malaysia where she were faci on their AP X summit and brought really interested books : I took Paulo Coellio "Brida", - those who likes reading probably already read this book, in MC you don't have so much time for reading :)) and Lara took to read "Word is Flat", hope she reads it quickly, as I'm already dreaming about this book.
If you still didn't read those books, or watch D House, I advise you to try :)))

Just random...

Hm... I didn't post here for a long time. So it's time to improve myself :)

It will be some random post, i don't want to dedicate it to smth. Just random thoughts.

This quarter was full of emotions, experience and feelings. New Horizons were smth challenging for me and for others too. And actually now the third part of december passed so very soon we will celebrate half of our term! And also we're waiting for desirable winter holidays!

I'm sure the next half of our year will be even more interesting and full of everything.

Sooooo random post requires random photos:) So there are photos made last and this weeks. Enjoy!







And of coz! ATTENTION!!! Tomorrow our great team mate, our Tetyana will have a birthday! So everybody are welcome to congratulate this wonderful person!

For now that's all...

For DEAR ZAGAS!!! On this DAY!!!

For YOU Devoted

Surfing the net ;)

This weekend I decided to devote myself to the creativy;) The main pusher to make this, even if it sounds funny, but it is so - myaiesec.net!!! And newly launced campaign by AI. So now i'm learning how to improve my knowledge and skills in IT and that's one of the tries to see what is the progress:))


Myspace layouts

he-he:) seems that works:))))))))) enjoy!

Кружок юных "ботанов"

Yes, it's really true. Young "botany" occupied our MC house! Really hard period started - studying... Ugly and boring but sometimes usefull

I'll start from my self. As i'm still a student i should study sometimes at least. Till Monday i should prepare my diploma (actually "kursovaya") from management of organization. It has great topic: "Strategical management of marketing trade politics" (i hope that translated it correctly:)





Than goes ... Tanya. She becomes crazy spanish woman. Yeah, spanish - she wants to study spanish and the whole MC team with her. Now we know that "la mujer es gorda" means "fat woman":)

Than Sashas' order. He is writing ... articles. What and why - we don't know. But know for sure that he is also "botan".

And finaly Lara! This incredible woman studies how to sells... Indian people! "Boryus, do you want to take Indians for internship? they're so cool! They have great XP!"



Katya is also "botan" but today she didn't study.

Only Rostik and Nastya are happy! Good for them!

WARNING! Animal in the house!

Here i am:) Finally, i'm writing something about my MC life on our MC blog. It's bit strange... I'm Communications responsible but didn't write here before...But i really want to break this tradition.

We are changing all the time... And me too. I spend one week in trips around Ukraine. Hope, some day I'll write about it on our blog... But for now I want to write about little changes in our life. Since yesterday we have new team mate in our house - we have a cat. It (actually she) will live for a week till Katya Byelova (her owner) will come to Ukraine from the trip.

I like cats very much as well as other my mates. And we were waiting for this beautiful kitten - Katya (is it funny that cat is owners namesake?:) She came to us with her own plates, food and even toilet... Really equiped.

Katya is really strange. First day she was afraid of everything, she hide behind the wardrobe in our office room, did not eat anything, growl on us (especially on Lara:), spent whole night under Sasha's bed. Poor animal.

Fortunatelly today she was more friendly, she was not afraid of us and our house any more. Just look on photos!

My dear Bashnya

Kayt'ka herself

Kisyulechka and Sashulechka

Kat'ka loves coffee


Me and Katya

One more interesting detail - Katya already found a boyfriend. This is cat of our neighbors. He was sitiing on the windowsill outside our house and looking on Katya in the kitchen. Unfortunatelly i did make this funny photo:(

Katya, we will miss you so much after this time!

Once upon a time I was in Rivne...

The times of loneliness at the MC appartment and office are coming to the end, and finally just in some more days we will be ALL together, sitting in the old usual working atmosphere, but on the first times probably chating-sharing-remembering these weeks of travelling, discoveries, memories of meetings with new people that each of us is bringing back to Kyiv after the row of the LC visits and participation at LICs. For sure for everyone these trips were unique and specific, exciting and tiring, unpredicttable and for sure unforgattable and motivational to return back here and start to work with new forces and energy!!!!
I was lucky to be in Rivne during the last weekend and chair and facilitate there the Local Induction Conference and run LC visit. It's so pleasant to see the committement and personal desire just of a few people - actually 3 strong personalities from EB - to make things happen!!! And even if sometimes things are going not in the best way, seeing them and hearing there questions - you feel the desire to do your best to support them. And to encourage as much people as possible to do the same with you!
There is a pool of young talented people that can build up a growing LC in the city of Rivne! The time is coming to make AIESEC their future and make them the future of AIESEC in Rivne... Of course the challenges are all around, and even more job should be done after the visit, now- that's the show-time when we have no option and possibility to make any mistake... 'cos we have the greatest opportunities and new horizons in front, and the most important thing that we have- not so much- but still these are interested and motivated people to make these happen:

The time is running, the memories are staying... The results to be performed and goals achieved are knocking in our doors:))) That's our turn to stand up and make an effort to open these doors NOW!!!

...Prosto ya zhyla v odnomu duzhe fajnomu LC... :)

The time of a few people staying home in the house... The time of total mess within cooking teams... The time of constant needed tickets absence... The time of MC members in the trains all around the country... The time of poor AIESECers catching up us at 3.. 4.. 5.. am on the stations...

The time of LC visits has come!!!

All those who have ever been or will ever be in the MC team would for sure support my words: these are definitely the special times for the MC member. When you touch the LC reality, when you feel yourself kind of "back in time". When a great bunch of challenges, decisions, initiatives, emotions, achievements and other things which seem to be so crucial, urgent and essential at the moment, soars all over the LC EB team expecting for the only right decisions to be taken by leadership body... This time I was again the first one from our team to start with the visits. Thank you Boryusik for waiting me already at 5.25 near that board..)) This is our second round of the visits and the first one when we go to Lcs without previous MC coach. However informed and prepared to the visit you are you never know what to expect from the LC reality and people who shape it. You just go and face the atmosphere, see the impact of your decision once made, the result of materials released and touch a real AIESEC life on local level. Thank you my dear Fajne LC for a warm host :) For jokes and laugh, for common work and individual meetings, for legislation and Kryivka :)) I believe if you work out your weaknesses and reinforce your strengths you have everything to rock this year and I sincerely wish you to do that.
I'm sure you will ;)

Already looking forward to meeting Franyk and Uzhhorod...

Huraaa!!!
we got salary today!!!! For the first time on time and full !!!!!!!
basnya is our hero!!!!

feedback session

To days ago we had MC day, and the culmination of it ... was feedback session.
To be frank here, I don't really like those sessions, hmm and I realized why, as all the time when people wants to tell you something that you need to improve, they firstly start to invent a lot of good thing about you, and really often it looks insincere, so this time I was expecting the same.
And, thanks God I was mistaken, those 3 hours was so amazing, with lots of new things, with something that I needed to know. And you know it united as even more after that, we started to speak with each other more, to help each other more and to listen :) maybe it's just my point of view, a MC what do you think?

Happy to be in such TEAM :)

august shortly :)

Haven't written for long time?
Yes, well mostly it because of being away for almost a month. So, wonder what was happening with us during August?
Our trips started from TTT in Donetsk, where me, Katya were faci, Bashnya chair and Lyuba delegate.

We had cool experience, amazing sessions and nice time spent together with our future trainers :) Also we were amazed by the OC preparation, # of in kind raised etc, thank you LC Donetsk and specially ER people (Artem and Vitalik) for working hard during all summer.

After that we had ZagnibedCo, - for those who don't know it's unofficial name of SellCo, as the only faci there was` our lovely Sasha :) How it was??? well I was not there, so you are welcome to write comments and share some thoughts about this meeting :)

And finally.... 5 of us went to Brazil.......
get to know more about our adventures in our next posts....

Why are you here??

During the weekend, celebrating, resting , speaking and thinking, some questions came to my mind , why I'm here? Why other people here? Why we, being 21 -24 came to one place, one house, enjoying work that seems to our friends "lost time", still we are here, far from our homes, not able to see family, working together, living together, eating together...
Why?
Is that about development? Maybe, or because of spirit, uniqueness of AIESEC?
Don't think that i feel bad right now writing this post, I enjoy my life here, but it's just a question I cannot give the answer for now ...

and Why are you here??
