The title “Youth Development” was what attracted me the most in choosing the subject
for my co-curriculum. As a part of youth, I am interested in knowing more about the youth and
how to develop the youth to make a better generation for our world. I was preparing myself for
lots of materials and webinars to attend when I applied for this course. I never thought that I
would be one of the committee to make a webinar (that changed to be a sharing session at the
end of the program) to enlighten the youth and people in general.
Since the webinar was canceled, we decided to conduct the Drawasaurus as an individual
program. But then it was changed, the Drawasaurus will be a part of the closing ceremony of
Healthy Mind, Healthy You! We even chose the MC from our group for the closing ceremony. It
was until on 23th January, we were informed that the speaker that was supposed to fill the
webinar can spare his time and decided to have a sharing session in the closing ceremony. The
closing ceremony was supposed to be on 25th January. So we only have one night to prepare for
the Drawasaurus program that will be conducted on 24th January. We voted and made a fast
decision in the WhatsApp group and finally conducted the Drawasaurus on 24th January at night.
It was very challenging and there were a lot of obstacles in handling the Drawasaurus
program. However, I am thankful that my group is quite cooperative and if they are given a task,
they can finish it well. It was a very interesting experience for me. I got to know new friends and work with new
people with different backgrounds and perspectives. The course also taught me about the
importance of taking the lead and making decisions in the team work environment. Also the
importance of communication outside the team such as to the high committee and the lecturer to
minimize the chance of miscommunication.
