An Asian Adventure


Wow! I can't believe that it has been a long time ago since my last update for this blog but still, I do have lots of stories and experiences to tell as well.

Last March 13, my classmates and I created a Vietnamese and Singaporean exhibit for the yearly Asian festival heald in our school. I thought it cool and amazing to see my self and classmates wearing amazing costumes from countries I haven't heard much of. And also, along with the exhibit was the handicrafts, traditional cuisines, national costumes, traditional games and sports, ethnic music and dances as well.

Though we were not that informed with the said countries, still we managed to string things together and pull a cool exhibit that captivated many visitors (HONEST!). I really found it funny seeing my self in a cute costume and looking all Vietnamese as if I'm for real.

Honestly, I love wearing costumes. I can't stop my self from looking at my reflection for I really admire my adorable red ao dai, the traditional Vietnamese costume. Hahahaha!

But still, despite all the excitement and all, everyone from my class got really exhausted to continuously repeat our presentation/exhibit for like 7 times including talking about the same thing for each presentation, pose like a real maniquin, smile despite the climate which is really hot, and serve food to different types of students.

Anyway, I must say that this experience gave me a piece of Asia in a peculiar way! It makes me more excited on exploring the depths of the cultures of Asia :) I'm so proud to be a part of the Asian Community!
