Did I mention that this weekend was also UCIMUN? I fielded a lot of requests on Saturday to leave early for prom. As much as I want to grant them as much time to prepare as I can, there also needs to be a balance for them to earn their credit and also make sure they do well at the conference. I went back and forth, but settled on a time. It did make it hard for those who left early to keep their standing on Sunday, but a few were able to, impressively. It always is nice to be on my home turf as I revisit and reminisce about my days on the campus. It looks a lot different now, but it still feels the same. I walked through the committees and at times disappointed by the unrealistic crisis that went on even in UN committees. We avoided all of the non-MUN committees, which I despise when conferences have them (mostly college), but still yet, we ended up with a Gundam invasion. Still yet, despite these crisis, the conference itself ran smoothly. In the end, we actually did pretty well at the conference as we earned three best delegates (we were only in six committees) and the students also received the best class delegation award! With so much going on, I was impressed that they were able to do so well despite the consolidated timeframe. There seemed to be a fairly light mood on the way home as it seemed to end on a good note. On the way home, I was a bit sad to think that the weekend had already dissolved before my eyes, as just when I finished something, I also had ... this and that. Although I worked the entire weekend, everything I did was quite worthwhile. The track athletes found medals and PRs, the prom students had a blast, and the MUN students excelled. As much as I would have loved to sit at home and rest, looking back, I would have changed a thing, as everything was worth the time and effort. I hope that in your lives, you find that the time and energy you spend is worthwhile and if it's not, I hope you a way to ensure that it is.
