Thanks God, I have wonderful friends at <a href=\"http:\/\/loenpia.net\/blog\">Loenpia.net<\/a> who fully understand and back me up. Thanks a lot guys! <\/p>\n<p><strong>The Venue<\/strong><br \/>\nTo be brief, the NatCon is held 17-22 Nov 2006 in <abbr title=\"Pusat Pendidikan dan Pelatihan\">Pusdiklat<\/abbr> <abbr title=\"Departemen Pendidikan Nasional\">Depdiknas<\/abbr>, Jakarta. I only attended it until 20 Nov, since I got another thing to do in Jakarta, and the last 2 days is not an obligatory for a short term member like me. Pusdiklat is sooo huge! It\u2019s also beautiful and even has an artificial lake inside it. While the accommodations are very nice (so are the foods! =p~ ), many delegations complain about the distance between housing area and the venue. It\u2019s about 10 minutes walk from each house to the venue\u2026 that&#8217;s quite a problem, because the schedule is super tight.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/venue01.jpg\" alt=\"venue\" \/> &nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/venue02.jpg\" alt=\"venue\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>The People<\/strong><br \/>\nThey are crazy! :))<br \/>\nIt\u2019s nice to meet a lot of new friends. <abbr title=\"Local Committee\">LC<\/abbr> University of Diponegoro sent about 40 delegates, but at the conference\u2019s housing, we\u2019re all separated. I had a house mates from University of Indonesia, University of Andalas, University of Brawijaya, and University of Surabaya. So, although we used English in the Conference\u2019s Sessions, we also had mixed language when we back to our house. It\u2019s kinda funny.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/budiyono\/304468806\/\"> src=&#8221;http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/aiesec_people_01.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;aiesecer&#8221; \/><\/a> &nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/aiesec_people_03.jpg\" alt=\"aiesecer\" \/><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n<strong>The Sessions<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, it\u2019s already been three days, but I still don\u2019t know how to put words together to describe the sessions in this NatCon. although indeed it is a National Conference, but we had games in most of the session. It\u2019s so much fun than the conventional session. To be short, in that 3 days I had a chance to become a mummy, a dinosaurs\u2019 king, a Japanese tourist, a mouse trap inventor, a native islander etc.. Seriously, Go figure! :p It\u2019s so fun that I even forget everything else while doing it. Sometimes I wonder&#8230; what the hell are we just doing? :d And also not to mention&#8230; the dance! One thing is sure about AIESECer : they dance, a lot! really a lot! I wonder how many calories I\u2019ve burnt during this NatCon. If this Natcon is one month full, then I must already have six packs abdominal by now. :><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/session01.jpg\" alt=\"session\" \/> &nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/session02.jpg\" alt=\"session\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Party<\/strong><br \/>\nNot a single night passed us away without a party. We ended every day with a party and performances. Well, I\u2019m not quite sure if \u201cended\ufffd? is the right words, because we mostly started the party after midnight. Sometime the party is just too crazy, especially the first night. It&#8217;s so crazy that I\u2019m worried my blog will be shut down if I put the picture of it. Seriously! :d\/ So here&#8217;s I put the 2nd night Party instead, titled &#8220;<em>Global Village<\/em>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/party01.jpg\" alt=\"aiesec party\" \/> &nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/party02.jpg\" alt=\"aiesec party\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jazz Goes to Campus<\/strong><br \/>\nMy last night on NatCon, we all went to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wartajazz.com\/jgtc\/index.html\">The 29th Jazz Goes to Campus<\/a> music festival in University of Indonesia. This is my first Jazz event I\u2019ve been to. I always thought that Jazz is kind of music that I\u2019m not into. Come on, what do you think when you heard of &#8220;jazz&#8221;? To me is about saxophone, slow music, cigarette, and old people. Well that\u2019s already in the past! The JGTC is awesome! There were two stages, both huge and crowded. My favorite performance was \u201c<em>Fly me to the Moon<\/em>\ufffd? by <strong>Syaharani &#038; The Queen Fireworks<\/strong>, it\u2019s one hell of a performance. I like the song, I like the band, I like the performance and I like the atmosphere. Other performers were Tompi, Ruth Sahanaya etc. I don\u2019t remember much, well I\u2019m not a Jazz fan before \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/JGTC_01.jpg\" alt=\"JGTC\" \/> &nbsp; <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i18.photobucket.com\/albums\/b122\/boku_baka\/JGTC_02.jpg\" alt=\"JGTC\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The show ended up with a beautiful fireworks show, and that\u2019s fireworks was somehow also as an ending to my crazy adventure in this NatCon, because I need to leave the venue tomorrow morning, and get back to real world. Thank you for everything guys, you\u2019re wonderfull.
