Reading about the IATTS Forum, I am especially intrigued by its motto: “Thinking and Learning Together”. This forum provides space for young people to learn variety of things. Young people should not restrict their mind to just one discipline because the solution to solve the complex world that our society faces will definitely be complex as well. More importantly, besides all the intellectual stimulation that I will be devouring, this forum will also teach me about different culture. JAPAN??? It’s like “WOW!!” I have for long been admiring Japan and its citizens. The poised, discipline, and highly dedicated nature that the Japanese have towards their work no matter what their occupations are, really strike me as astounding. The recent tsunami only seems to prove even more what a deeply interesting country Japan is: no looting has taken place and the citizens have maintained their calm demeanor throughout the hard time. This selflessness nature of the citizens has motivated me to be extremely dedicated to my work even more. Just curious to be there, especially to feel the autumn season along attending the program… So excited!:-)
