I woke up late. Again. (Sorry, buddy. I told you to pick me up at 8.15, and I woke up at 8.30; came out of the house at 9ish). We rode to the UNDIP campus, but we kinda got lost looking for the Faculty of Humanities, hahaha! But when we did find our way, we headed to the third floor BEM room to wait for Naufal. After a while, we started setting up our booth at the lobby.
Some people dropped by my booth, and I had a chance to tell them about the Philippines -- the language, cuisine, culture, etc. Most of the people seemed genuinely interested. I made a few new friends, too, so that was nice. I was dressed in my national costume, and it was reaaally hot. A little while later, we moved to a room on the second floor, and we had a bigger audience. That was really cool, cause the OC had a chance to talk about the project in detail. They showed us this video of Tim Doner, a hyper-polyglot, and I was really impressed. Really inspiring stuff, kinda makes me want to learn more languages, too. Iva and Kalina went first, and they shared a ton of stuff about Bulgaria, which was really interesting, cause I honestly don't know much about their country. Then I talked some more about the Philippines. I need to work on speaking more slowly, I guess, cause I blazed through the presentation in 5 minutes, when I could've talked for about 10. =))) Practice makes perfect, hahaha.
After all of that, we went to this place to have late lunch/early dinner. It was really chill. I sat next to Zakky, and he's this really annoying (in a good way) guy. =))) After that, Fauzan had to drive me home. I really need to learn how to commute. -__-
Tomorrow, I think I'm going on a trip with Iva and Kalina, but I'm not sure where we're going yet, hahaha! We'll figure it out tomorrow. We're winging it. ;)
