Indonesian Culture Exhibition 2011 – We are Indonesian and we are proud of it!

You know, it’s been 4 days, but still i feel the euphoria of our amazing Indonesian Culture Exhibition,
Yes, we, Indonesian Students in National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST), just organized the biggest annual event called ICE or Indonesian Culture Exhibition, on March 10 and 11
It’s not only because my English is not that good, but it’s also because i cannot find the proper words to express my pride of being an Indonesian Student!!! I’m not saying something exaggerate, but yes it is..you would never imagine how great we felt at that time
Chosing “Indonesia in Wonderful Diversity” as the theme, We prepared the event since 4 month ago, and somehow, i ought to say that it’s not easy,in the beginning some people said the concept we proposed was too much, a bit unrealistic, but we stayed cool tough, sometimes we had a bit fight and argued to each other, sometimes we were too busy (or pretended to be busy) to spare times for preparing the event..but we did through it all..and there was it, the event was held on March 10 and 11 2011
The event itself has 2 major important sessions: Workshop&Exhibition which was held in IB building 1st floor for one and a half day, and also Evening Cultural Performance which was held in Research Building as the grand closing of spectacular ICE 2011
Well…i won’t talk too much, because sometimes pictures talk much..much better than words, so just enjoy the pictures, wish you can feel the pride that we deeply felt at the moment..
