Madeleine's PEJ experience!


Madeleine gives a speech at the General Assembly
 
I learnt about how the European Parliament works, what the EYP/PEJ is, how to work in a group without an adult. I managed to forge an opinion on subjects I did not know or would even have cared about before... I also made a few friends!

When the EYP began I felt ill-at-ease because I did not know anyone apart from Bénédicte in my committee. The team building was a bit strange at first because we greeted each other as if we were best friends who had not seen each other for a long time!

At the end of the week-end, just before we left, the President of the National Session, an Englishman, officially closed the Session and I realised it really was finished and that it had been prettty cool and in fact quite an enriching experience and also that I might never see my new friends again! It was both the best and the worst moment of the weekend because it was all over but it made me think about all the good times that we had spent together...
