Asian and Middle Eastern show + 3rd year reunion

           Amazing weekend full of events!
     Not only it was the Asian and Middle Eastern national week but also around 40 people from my 3rd year came to have their reunion. Everything was so exciting and also stressful in a way. I must say it was weird a bit to see that many new people and see what a good relationship they have with our 2nd years - but it is totally understandable when they spent a whole year together and we have only 3 days to get to know them. Still it was nice to meet so many new and interesting people, see my 3rd year  again and talk about her experience with university and life in London.
     And the show? it was simply beautiful and so much fun :) This time I had to dress up as a panda ;)
Also I was finally present on a taster session of their national food and it was worth it!

 Security check for the show

 Even I was taken for some "bad" behaviour

UWCAD 2013 Anniversary show in Teatro Verdi

       Definitely the biggest, most important and serious event of the school's year. For the anniversary of 50 years of UWCs and 30 years of our college we managed to rehearsal this magnificent show and presented it on Friday night in the spectacular teatro Verdi in Trieste. The whole show started with a presentation of David Sutcliffe's book -Kurt Hahn, with some speeches about the foundation of UWC.
Then it was our time to come and shine. I must say that all students who performed did they best performance on that stage. I personally was involved in Latvian traditional dance which you can see on this link:

Project Week - Praha

      After bit of trouble on Saturday morning we finally managed to leave Duino and eventually get to Prague. We were 10 people and we all stayed at my brothers place right in the centre, which was more than amazing as everything was so close. Our Czech experience started with Czech meal that night and I was surprised that all people actually liked it :)
      On Sunday we managed to visit the exhibition Slavic Epic of Mucha (my favourite Czech artist), most of the historic places of Prague and other many beautiful places. In next few days we have seen another gallery, the Castle, went cycling, visited attraction park and changed the cousine from Chinese to Mexican and finished with Italian restaurant. We all had really amazing time and as we had quite a lot of money left (my country is cheap) we even could effort to go to chocolate museum and cinema. It was interesting, stressful but definitely not regretting event to organize!
       And for the long-weekend I had the chance to stay at home with my family and also see my friends, up for that - Santa and Yulia stayed with me :)
