1. Always join every committee with a lot of questions in mind. Question your motive, what you want to do in the committee, what you want to achieve(though achievements are not the goal in iscf
), what is the event held for, what is the job scope, etc, etc. This will at least prepare you when you're down, so that you can get re-charged in the middle of your journey in iscf, by reminding yourself of these things.
2. Most importantly, to remind yourself that you're doing it all for God, because of Jesus's love and example for us, his followers. If you set your mind on the people, you'll easily get discouraged, because men can easily dissapoint us and probably won't appreciate us sometimes, but...God knows everything, and He would never dissapoint us.
3. Keep your good characteristics, try to learn from one another in committees, exco...But, do not try to mimic a person you really adore to the point of throwing away what you come up with in the first place. ISCF is a place where some ppl can easily just convert personalities...and I believe it is not what it exists for. Be yourself (I mean your good self, keep your personal passions, do not try to be the same as some other strong male/female figures in ISCF). God created each one of us wonderfully specific for special purposes He has set in the first place. Lah kok jadi Purpose-Driven Life banget, hueheheh...
4. Keep a balanced life, remember the Pentathlon...it might sound ridiculous, but it's an important point to keep in mind. Otherwise, you'll become easily absorbed into so many activities in ISCF, and forget the essence of them.
5. Try to be as open as possible...be honest to each other. Ask question if you don't understand something, why a person does something. It's important as we're working with people of different personalities and we might get stumbled by misunderstandings very easily.
6. Serve each other in love, without expecting anything in return. Hati2 jatuh cinta pada orang yang salah...ah yang ini j/k, meski bisa terjadi jg, kan tresna jalaran saka kulina 
7. Sometimes you can get so confused with everything, because the nature of ISCF is...oh-so-complicated. So you'll need time to reflect on yourself...and always try to stand from God's point of view. Prevent yourself from getting provocated by others into accepting some ideas that you're not even sure of.

8. If all of the tips above fail...and you still fall anyway...remember to turn to God...perhaps there's something else wrong...remember that these tips themselves and the author are not perfect :D
Kayaknya untuk sementara ini, dari observasi saya selama jadi anak first year dan 2nd year di ISCF, 8 ini cukup deh, survival tips di ISCF untuk brief 3-4 years stay (yah kalo kepilih jadi pktb atau ASW atau apa lah...uda laen crita) :D
Edited #2:
Kok tiba2 terlintas di pikiran pengen menghidupkan lagi sarana publikasi ISCF kyk Ikan itu loh...pengen tulis2 artikel2an, ntah bs yang serius, atau ngayam tapi inspiring hehehe
tp ntah juga ya apakah manpower mencukupi, perlu dipikirin matang2 kalo mau buat something like that. Tapi untuk sementara sih sptnya banyak anak first year going 2nd year yang pengen sarana2 onlen dihidupin kembali, i.e. website dan forum ISCF.
