Not an AIESEC house.

Regarding this post: there are going to be a lot of AIESEC terms you might not get, but the message will probably get through anyway.

Our house, as I, as well as our one-night German visitor, have observed, is not an AIESEC house. The values are missing. Technically, it is, because we are all in AIESEC or are EPs (6/8 are in AIESEC). The thing is, people are not sharing stories and hanging out and spending time together and doing roll-call dances like AIESECers should be. It's quite disappointing. The 3 asian girls are very friendly and nice and I like them a lot, but they always just go hang out in their room and don't converse with us more than at breakfast or dinner. The guy from Japan barely talks to us at all. It's basically just Janelle and I. It's lame. We should all be hanging out and going on weekend trips together and playing games and all that, but we don't. David, the Ghanaian roommate tries to spread his friendship around, so that's good, but he is somewhat like the others as well. We should be getting a girl from Canada this weekend and maybe a girl from Brazil, so maybe that will help things, but I am not sure.

Either way, it's a bummer. At the AIESEC house in Kumasi we taught them the American roll-call we do at conferences, and they taught us 3 Ghana roll-calls (dances). We haven't done that at all in our house.

SO LAME.

Oh well.
