Random Scrap:
The Model UN conference was taking place at the Hilton Hotel by Union Square. I was now officially given the title of the chief of staff and along with other guy called Rob was effectively in charge of the whole logistics. We bought lots of paper from Staples, secured copy machines, printed out placards for the attendees, set up the room, etc. At our disposals were other several volunteers who would be typing resolutions and other documents. Everything started on time and with just a few bumps such as missing ids or delegates not being on the list. First day into the session I felt I didn't really have that much authority, after all we were all just being here in our free time, so I didn't mind if some of the drafts were just being copied straight into to the copiers. We appealed to the people to use clear handwriting as only the main resolutions were to be typed. It was the violation of the previous practices but who cared. I converted a corner to a meditation room so people could relax. The atmosphere of an impending disaster was fun even if not everyone got their certificates on time.
