School Club/Organization

I was chosen to be one member of GCA’s leadership Club this term .I gained many interesting and meaningful experience during the time in this club’s activity.

We always have meeting in the lecture theater in GCA to discuss different things. We did a lot of work such as Fashion show this term. All the members are divided into different groups to be responsible for different tasks in Fashion Show.

In the activity, we are always be divided into different groups with strange person who we do not know before, I think this rule give us a lot of practices .We have to get familiar with the people we did not know before on our own. I used to be a girl who is easy to shy and not brave enough to get along with strange person, and I know that this characteristic might be my disadvantages. I am changed a lot by this rule in our club activity.

We have two big activities this term. The first one is the Speech in Shelton Hotel. We are divided into different groups as usual. We need to pretend to be the worker in KFC a few years ago, and discuss if we should build KFC in china. Different group got different small topics under this big theme. I was in group with Mike(10-D),Sonia(10-D),Grace(10-C)and Fan(Grade 11).Our topic is China which means that we need encourage KFC to make a big market in china. I felt really tired at that because of the preparing for that speech. We stayed in school very late to practice the speech in lecture hall every afternoon before the Speech.. We need to make sure the grammar, the pronunciation are right when we make the speech. Finally, I think that our speech successful though all the members in our group make some small mistakes because of nervous or carelessness. I also learned how to do our presentation successfully from this experience.

The other big activity that Leadership Club held this term is Jiaxing Trip. We went Jiaxing and stayed there for 3 days to do different activities. I learned a lot from this trip. We played some activities in groups in Tongxiang GCA .I think that these games are similar as the games that we played in the school. The most interesting game must be imitated gunplay in my mind. Some people did not consider that they are died though we already shot them. Mr.Gallinelli realized that after he shot the same person for 5 times, then he shot everyone around him even his team member. This is very funny, I think.

I also learned a lot from other members during this trip. Most of us have exams after the trip, so we always reviewed for the exam after we finished the activity in the hotel. I knew many good students’ way of studying this time .I found many advantages from others. Another thing reminded me a lot is that, when we have dinner in a restaurant in JiaXing, the waiter asked us to pay 10 yuan because we did not by the expensive water from them. Cherry, the CEO of leadership Club quarreled with these waiters and waitress to protect our own legal rights. She seemed very powerful at that time. I think that I will be brave to negotiate with others to protect my legal rights in the future as her.

In conclusion, these experiences in leadership club are very meaningful and teach me a lot.
