Participating in the planning and execution of the Mooncake Festival and Cultural Night event has been an incredible experience for me. Looking back, I feel a sense of personal growth and fulfillment. Being a part of the program department allowed me to develop some valuable skills. I had to be organized and coordinate different aspects of the event, from arranging performances to recruiting talent. It taught me the importance of paying attention to details and working as a team to overcome challenges.
Before the event, I found it quite tiring as there is a lot of tasks under the program department that had to been completed. One of the biggest issues that we face is the lack of manpower during the preparation and the main event. I realized teamwork is a crucial element in organizing an event as it felt so overwhelming when there is a lack of manpower. I learned that capitalizing on each person's strengths and abilities is important. We communicated openly and transparently, ensuring that everyone was aware of the tasks at hand and had the necessary support to complete them. It was through our collective efforts that we were able to accomplish everything that needed to be done.
In conclusion, being involved in the Mooncake Festival and Cultural Night event was a journey of personal growth and unforgettable experiences. I gained skills, made connections, and learned the power of teamwork and cultural appreciation. I will carry these lessons with me as I continue to explore new opportunities and make a positive impact wherever I go.
