Best International Understanding Day

         Today the best thing that I have been hoping for has happened! For the whole holiday, I have been rotting at home and was really putting my hopes up for this historical day. I never expected it to be so fun and exciting. I thought it was just going to be a normal IU but yet Convent Bukit Nanas had proved me wrong, so very wrong. It was my first IU in this school and I was actually imagining how the school would look like, the wild imaginations that was running through my mind. And the theme of this IU was JUNGLE MADNESS!!! It was an event that was suppose to build the awareness to save the forest and trees. 

       In the morning, the registrations opened at 0800hours and it was a really hot morning while my friends and I waited for it to open. After the registrations, we all headed into the hall to put down our things and left the hall because the event would only start at 0900hours. At the moment, I was walking around chilling with my friends and just looking around the school compound. It wasn't really big but yet it was functional. It was then when I laid eyes on my beloved friend which I haven't seen in almost a year and she looked great!

      Clock strikes 0900hours and we all were anxious at what was about to come. First, the opening ceremony and speeches made from the principle and the people that was in charge of it. Of course, that was the most boring part of any event when everyone has to just sit there and listen. After the speech, there was a simple video made from the girls of CBN. It wasn't a long one but yet it was a really funny but yet it got us to look at different angle on why we should save the environment.

     Not long after, we had a group of girls from CBN that performed for us. There was dance, music and singing everywhere. The crowd was shouting and screaming at the top of their lungs and it really made me smile and laugh along with them. About 1010hours, it was our break time for some food and drinks. We then headed to the canteen and there was food provided for us. But the thing that made me wonder was why did the boys have to sit opposite side to the girls. We were not allowed and I made a joke saying : Maybe the guys food has more carbohydrates compared to the girls side.

    During our meal, there was a couple of performance with fire where the performer will sit fire out of their mouths. It was really great but the smell of kerosene was really strong. It attracted everyone to want to watch the spectacular event. After the fire performance, the CBN band started showing off their moves playing in beats and dancing. During the performance, I went over to my best friend and chitchat with her about things and there was a couple of our friends teasing us while we talked.

    As know, the event wasn't over and we then headed back into our sits in the hall, there was then a wonderful performance by elecoldxhot which made the whole crowd go really crazy and we shouted as they danced. After them, there was a famous singer by the name of  Caprice and his partner that I didn't know. They sang and started giving our flowers for us and the girls seemed to fall in love with them. 

    How wonderful a day. After these, at 1130hours there was the closing ceremony and somehow I felt sad that it was coming to a close. I just wished that I would have lasted longer. CBN really did a good job and I applause them for their wonderful work.
