Sad Day(Farewell)
I think i'm gonna categorize the activities into 3 categories and write them as overall.
Let's start with the boring one we got symposium and regional meeting. Symposium is more like a lecture as you know, nobody likes lectures. As for regional meeting, we are not allowed to do anything (no voting right and also speaking right). Oral presentation also should be put here for me. So basically everyone end up like the photo below:
Let's go to the so-so activities. Laboratory visit, workshop, uni tour, cultural visit. The uni that we went is Khon Kaen university and it has a freaking big compound and we visited it's laboratory and given a tour around the university. The workshop i joined is on the topic "Drug marketing and promotion" and also we are allowed to make our own herbal medicine bag. As for the cultural visit, the place we visited are the dinasour museum and a temple.Last one is the fun activities which include welcome party, international night, dinner at smile restaurant, traditional night, community service, campaign and gala night. Let's start with the welcome party, it's like ice breaking where we are given a chance to know the participants of the symposium. During the international nights, all of us need to wear our local costume which makes the party site so beautiful as everyone are so pretty and handsome. Most special costume I think will be Korea costume. Besides, we also need to perform some of our cultural dance.
During the traditional night, those people from Thailand wear their traditional costume and performed their dance in the Hall which I cannot remember the name. *sad* Before the start of the party, we are allowed to play some of the games they prepared. When food is served, the are entertained with their traditional dances and towards the end we are given the chance to learn their dance which is so interesting.For the community service, we went to the a handicap school to play games with them. As for the campaign, we like demonstrating on the road (in Malaysia 100% end up in jail). Our goal in promote the rational use of antibiotics.
For the gala night, it is quiet unexpected as it is held in a pub but the effect is even better as everyone gone crazy dancing on the dance floor until no need to eat. This night is also a sad night as it is the last event of the whole symposium and also means everyone going to be separated soon. lastly the Mr and Ms APPS 2008.
