            On the other hand, being a press member is fun.



                                          Well, you do have to write articles,           Overall, my MUN experience

                                          for being lazy.
                                          In my defence, I had encountered a
                                          writer’s block. Sure being a
                                          delegate seems more appealing, but

                                          personally, I would prefer being a

                                          member of the press. Yes, the work
                                          you have to do might be
                                          intimidating. But you learn along
                                          the way. Hosting interviews and
                                          podcasts seems fun, until you start
                                          to plan it out. Which from personal
                                          experience, its tough. Being in the
                                          press can be a quiet humbling
                                          experience.  Mainly because of how
                                          perfect the work should be.
