Group work

"What have I learned about working in groups over the course of the semester, and about how I work with groups?"
It's been a semester of groupwork in UCHANU as I got to work in team "Vãi Chưởng" and One heartland VN. I think we did a good job as an interview team and a fundraising group. I've always been a collective person who likes to work in group so that was kinda what I wanted to do :)
With team Vãi chưởng, we did 4 interviews together, as for the rest we did in small group of 2 or individually. That was just conducting the interview, the transcribing and translating and posting of a single interview are always done by two out of four people in the group. We change the pair as one interview completes, Nancy and I, Mindy and Ngan, later on Nancy and Ngan, Mindy and I. We generally had no problems while carrying out the interviews, as everything was kinda organized and discussed thoroughly before we got to work. Ever since the very first mapping tasks, we have come up with the joyful way to do it. yeah, all the credit goes to Nancy and Mindy I think, cuz they were so curious about everything, especially the food (they're so cute when hungry), so we had to think of different kinds of food we'd have whenever we went together interviewing people. The routine was like, we went somewhere fun or somewhere that has good food, enjoy the food, then do the interview. I don't know if the most important part was to get good material or to get good food LOL. So what i learned from it was group work with some one with a different perspective can bring you a new interesting experience, and it's best to work with someone nice and cute and has the same interests as you do LOL.
As for One Heartland VN, it was so amazing an experience to me. We ALL poured out our efforts, got our skills into work and raised a lot of money for the kids. But at the beginning I don't think the first meetings worked, only when we figured out a way to overcome the challenge of place to have the High Roller Night, everything fell into places. 
I'm a fan of group work so as a group member, I find it very reassuring and comfortable cuz I know someone's got my back whenever I got difficulties and I am willing to support them as well. 
(Darn it, I'm so distracted by the entries of UCHANU friends that I enjoy so much. I think I suck at keeping track of my thoughts as I'm always leaping from one idea to another, from one inspiring entry to another)
