Why I didn't join on school orgs/clubs?
Back in college, one of the tips I kept hearing from seniors, other peers and social media is to join school orgs/clubs. It makes sense since it is a way to build up your network and join extracurricular activities outside school
To be fair, I've technically join an org related to my course - I'm a engineering graduate by the way - but I'm just a member on paper, not active at all during my college days.
And that is the point, I realized that I cannot really connect with the people around the org. I bet, those who are really proactively joining in the activities are the officers in it and some students who needs plus incentives in their exams or quizzes. [Yung mga seminars and conferences na kailangan attendan para may plus kasi alanganin na bumagsak HAHA]
I mean majority of the students are just joining just to be a "member" on paper.
That is why school orgs doesn't resonate with me that much and it's not what I expected.
My recommendation? get a part time job instead. I was actually a part time usher and probably it's one of the best decision that I've made during that time.
I was able to meet other people with different backgrounds and been able to talk to other people and built that skill of giving instructions to them, as an introvert.
tapos every now and then makakakita ka ng mga actors sa TV and makapanuod ng mga theatre play for free hahaha.
If interested kayo magusher send ko sainyo details HAHA
I'm not discouraging anyone to not join orgs especially if may aspirations ka maging student leader someday. I speak to students na gusto ma-iba naman, who wants to explore outside university and really getting yourself out there.
Yun lang naman. study hard parin syempre.
Salamat sa pagbasa!🫶🏻
