Last Sunday, the International Folk Fair was going on in the Davies Center. All of the International students were ask to prepare something about their country and present it on the day. Some prepare their cultural food, some selling products from their home country, and some have some cultural games.
I'm in the group of South East Asia, which is the combination of Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. This was a good combination because three of these countires where next to each other.
On the day, we prepared some cultural foods, information(slide show & information board) about our country, and some cultural performance. Meanwhile, we are selling some key chains that we brought from Malaysia too. Not only that, we had made the Petronas Twin Tower by using the cans.
Although the preparation for the event was so tiring, but we enjoyed the whole process in preparing for the event. The night before, we were cooked and made some decoration until 3 in the morning, some continues until 6 in the morning, and we had to wake up and prepared everything on the location early 8 in the morning. Everybody were so tired, but still we are so excited for everything.
The event last for 4 hours, in between, I was manage to walk out and visited others counter. I learn some of the cultural history from the other counter. I love this event so much, because I can eat a lot of my home countries food, and make me feel like I'm home.
