A sunny day in Odense

So I am in Odense, finally, after a long period of busy participation in family and AIESEC activities. In fact, last night was the first night in several weeks that I've slept in my bed. I used the past two days to recharge my energy, tidy up my room (what a mess!), meet my friends and think about myself for once. That was great! That was neccessary! I bought new clothes, all on sale of course and I drank beers with Mette. Besides that I did some work, that was waiting for me and started to eat normal food again. I had the tendency to grap some fast food during my busy time away from Odense and that vane I really want to keep away from.

In fact I have made a promise to myself. When I move to Copenhagen and start my new position in AIESEC, I want to exercise regularly and do something for my body. I have learned, that body and soul are close together, so for me regular, healthy food, tidy sourroundings and physical exercise are the keys to happiness. So my brain has realized all this, but I am not acting on it. And why the hell should I wait for Cph to beginn with it? There is no reasonable answer which is why I started Tuesday. Yes! I went out for a run. I sucked. For real. Alexandra, my best friend calls me thin-fed: I am thin on the outside and fed on the inside. And she is right. But I am going to change all this. So today I continued and worked out - BEFORE BREAKFAST! I went on youtube for some advice video inspiration and rocked the floor! You can imagine me going up and down the stairs of my apartment? With this look of surpressed pain on my face? Yea, my ass, my stomach and my legs hurt, but I am going to continue.

Please find below the activities I enjoyed since January, just to keep you on track :-)

In January I got elected into the National Board of AIESEC Denmark to work with External Relations from July 09 to June 10, which will be pretty exiting.
















In March I have been to EuroXpro in Romania, an international AIESEC conference, where I met people from 38 countries. Together we talked about strategies for 09.10 and evaluated the current state of our organisation.









For Easter I went home to my mum's new house. My sister came, too, and the three of us had a really good and sunny time. Here you see the two, while we are out eating in an African restaurant in Berlin.









Last weekend it was my third time to facilitate at a national AIESEC conference. It was an amazing experience and I am looking forward to be a part of planning the conferences for AIESEC in Denmark next year, well the external part ;-)

On the picture you see the incredible delegation from SDU (Southern University of Denmark).
