My Impression about ICFC

Last Friday , i attended an event called ICFC, it stands for International Cultural Festival and Celebration. The event itself is quite fun because the auditorium had decorated and there are some booths that represented  from each nation. The representatives were from China,Indonesia,Belarusia,France,Spain and lastly, Germany.

China who went to the stage first, presented about their cultural handwriting called Chinese calligraphy which very difficult to write haha~, and they describe about their traditional house which has a pool in front of it, Chinese people believe that a pool is needed in some situations like when their house is burning they can extinguish the fire with it, also it can be a fish pond too.

France’s representative came to the stage after china’s, they taught us about how to pronounce france like a sir, my tongue got twisted many times urgh, Belarus as the third competitor, came to the stage and told us about their nation, which located on Eastern Europe, it has a beautiful  land and it’s actually landlocked, it means they don’t have direct access to the sea.

Spain’s representative was Domingo himself, he showed a video about city in spain and its carnaval, but that’s not all, Domingo’s friends which are salsa dancers surprisingly came to the stage and taught everyone to dance salsa, the dance itself was quite energic and fast that it could burn calories and make you lost your weight, an interesting way to diet!

The fifth representative was Indonesia itself, they described about our traditional food, Pecel. Which is a mixed vegetables with peanut sauce, and then two singers came to the stage and sang many traditional songs from almost every part of Indonesia like Yamko Rambe Yamko and Ondel-Ondel.

And last but not least, the representative from Germany, actually the representative was very kind, she gave many prizes to every of us who could answer her questions about germany, like it’s famous singer, part of germany and germany's famous landmark. From this event, I conclude that this kind of event is amusing , even the audience from High School Students were all excited and it's useful too because it gives me some knowledge about other nation. In the future ,I hope this kind of event can invite representative from Thailand,Taiwan,Japan, and around Asia, so it will be more amusing and I can learn their language as well.
