The Multi-cultural Fair

The fair was really awesome, in my opinion. I liked all of the posters we looked at, especially Chinese Etiquette. There were two on Chinese Etiquette and they distributed an equal and similar amount of information. I think it’s neat that at business meetings (as well as other meetings) it’s considered proper to give gifts, usually a nice pen. I guess you have to be careful what you give the other party because it could be considered inappropriate and they could be insulted. Anyway, the posters were all very interesting and neatly put together. When I entered the fair itself, it was like the biggest graduation party ever! I mean, squeezing in between people and such. That’s probably because this fair was really awesome. All kinds of tables from different cultures all around the world with all kinds of information, customs, histories, recipes, and even samples of food! They had life waters and vitamin waters (which is always a good thing) and even dancers! This was definitely one of the most interesting school activities that I have attended within my short time here at Schoolcraft College. I liked it, though. I was invited to join a student peace group, I tried different kinds of foods, checked out the displays and got my stamps. I was so bummed when I realized I didn’t have any money, though. I’m not sure if all of the items on display were for sale or not, but I know some were. There were these GORGEOUS handbags at the Indian display, I mean the embroidery and colors were so beautiful. The Mexicans and Native Americans also had some very interesting things on display, and of course, if I had the money, I would have been asking about them. I love shopping! I’m glad our class attended this fair, I think it was a fun way to learn about different cultures, interact with more new people at our school, while having fun at the same time. And when I say fun – I mean it from the bottom of my heart. I give the fair two thumbs up! If only I had more thumbs!
