Updates February 14th.

These past couple of months have been so busy! I have been continuing with yoga and Cleft Lip and Pallete in which we have been raising awareness about the disorder however my main focus has been on COMUN which is taking place from the 1st-3rd March.

As the Secretary General, the amount of work needed to get done has been quite overwhelming. Whether it be making sure sessions run smoothly during practice debates (which were held on the 12th of January and 9th of February) or finalizing certificates, I really have had to work on my leadership skills. I've had to learn how to allocate tasks to all member of the team, multi-task whilst improving my own knowledge on this issues being discusses which has been both challenging and rewarding. However, I developed my leadership skills in terms of organization during last years conference in which I was Head of Administration thus in order to gain even more confidence and challenge myself, I have been chairing. It has been a little intimidating as all the delegates present are extremely intelligence but it gave me a sense of confidence and love for COMUN I haven't had before which is also great as that was my goal for my senior year!

The theme for this year has been Conflict and Crisis which has turned out to be extremely interesting as it not only involves issues of global importance but it allows a variety of issues such as the Israelian-Palestine Crisis, Eurozone Crisis and legalizing of gay marriage, amongst others to all be explored.

We have one more practice debate left and thereafter, a hopefully amazing conference will take place!
