First MUN Conference

This saturday and sunday was the first MUN conference that i attended. I was in the ECOSOC: Economic and Social committee, with the issues of monitoring long term humantarian aid and solving financial crime effectively. On saturday, the first day of the conference, there was the opening ceremony, then we separated and went to each conference rooms. We simply said our opening speeches, then we had a session called lobbying. Which was going around, looking for people with similar resolutions and supporting a main submitter's reso as one of the co- submitters. Since it was the first conference for most of us, everyone wsa just nervous and felt th same way. So, we made friends quicker. My close classmate/friend made many girl-friends, while i talked to the guy who sat next to me. I know already that I make better friends with guys than girls. However, I also met my old classmate there and i was so happy to see her again. However, at first i didnt recognize her because of her glasses. Then, when she talked to me and she asked me if i was from the school we went to together, i said yes and she told me her name and i was like, "Oh! i know you!" I was really happy to reunite with an old classmate. Though we werent as close as best friends, we were close classmates. We became close again instantly. It was an awesome feeling. Because i moved around and transferred to alot of different schools, I didnt really experience those reuniting situations where you meet a old classmate. So i was really happy. The next day, we started debating. Though i didnt speak up alot, not as much as my friend, but I sat and listened carefully, and learned alot of things. I wish that I could go to the next conference and study, prepare more beforehand so i could perform better in the conference. Also, there was a depressing thing, it was that one of the resos me and my friend voted for, lost. However, the other reso that we voted for was approved. It was an amazing experience.
