International Education Conference


Hi Guys,
How are you doing?Hope you are always in a good shape.
Anyway, Last week, I had a very tight schedule because last week was International Education Week. From Monday till Thursday all the international students who get the CCIP scholarship participated in International Education Week. My two Indonesian friends (Ryan and Sanny) perfomed Indonesian dance, too bad Agung and I could not join them, because we both do not know how to dance LOL. Although we did not dance, we had discussion panel "International Student Panel" with the American future teachers in our college. Agung (Indonesian), Nayla (Brazilian), Juan (Costa Rica, Kiga (Kenya), Liz (Mexico) and I were the panelists. We were invited by Mr. Hansen to discuss about global issue that affect our country. Mostly we discussed about the education in our country which is totally different with the United States education system. Oh ya, I forgot, when we had the discussion, there were 2 people that asked Agung and I about the Tsunami in Aceh. They asked why there is no more news about it? what happened? as a good and innocent citizen, I explained how our government works in those kind of cases. LOL. I did not mean to make Indonesian name to be bad in American's mind, But I tried to tell the truth about it. How fast the reaction of our government is in responding those cases. Anyway, The future teachers who came to the International Student Panel were really enthusiastic to hear about our countries. They had no idea how the education system in our countries until we had the discussion. It was really interesting discussion. I felt happy to get the chance to share about Indonesian's government and Indonesian education system. 

Here are some pictures when we had the panel

Besides that, the next day, my friends (Ryan, Nayla, Juan, Rosalia, and Moh) had a talent show. They had a wonderful and creative dance ever. For you guys who want to see how wonderful it is,  here is the link. They are awesome.

The next day, we had International Fashion Show. All 18 of us, from 7 different countries (Brazil, Costa Rica, India, Pakistan, Turkey, Indonesia and Kenya) had short traditional dances with traditional dresses. All the students who came by to the cafeteria gave applause to us. Well, I felt nervous that time haha because I am a grogi person LOL. But that was fun.

So, that's my week activities last week.
Anyway, I have to end my posting here because I have to focus on my assignment LOL
So, I will see you on my next posting inshAllah.

Da Da,
Nur
