| Ticket. |
A long awaited post! Last Wednesday was the International Party! From the start of my semester I have been told about how this is the most interesting and unique event in the university. It was only natural for it to be on my list. My verdict? With the fact of it being a "club" night that involves bringing together students for home-cooked international food and performances, I agree with them.

| The stage. |
After refreshing my memory, I recall tasting Welsh cake (which look like scones), Brunei Kuih, Hellenic food which includes pita bread with unusual dips, Indonesian salad and fried mee and so on. Some of the food were new to me, but I'm not too picky with my culinary choices. A few tasted strange - possibly because first times work that way - and most were delicious.
The Malaysian society - brace yourself - had nasi lemak, kuih bakar, teh tarik and popiah. Slurp. Adiba, Sara, Vivien and I helped with the popiah earlier that day.

The performances were pretty amazing too, and I liked how there was a range of different cultural showcases. There were several dancing styles, including a martial arts infused one and an Afro-Caribbean choreography that used claps and stomps as the beat. There's also singing and even the Kazakh dombra performance, which I thought was creative. My only uncertainty was that there should be more societies setting up their food booths and performing. Wonder why they weren't involved.

It was too bad that I had to leave straight after the performances. There's always next year to look forward to, I guess.
