Culture Awareness
In Global Citizen, I watched many presentations from students who are from different countries with high diverse culture. They brought their cultural objects or foods and provided some of them. I have learnt their cultural foods, clothes, location, and many other things and tried some foods. The most impressive thing I felt was that every foods were delicious, though they were very different from what I usually eat. Especially cookie from Lebanon, which Joey brought, was very delicious, even it looked gross for me. By this, I knew that even people from different culture looks different from us, but they are actually similar with us. So from now on, I will not judge other culture (including food) with their looks. In my brief presentation, I chose to become efficient, trying to say only things important about Korea. I presented one of the cultural foods, Korean Pancake, which is special pancake in Korea. I also presented Gangnam, the city that was introduced to whole world by Psy's Gangnam Style. In my opinion, comparing to other's presentation, my presentation was bit poor and lack in information. To be honest, I spend too short time making it. If I can make it again, I would research more and make it longer.

Come on Tom! You need to write more.... I guess your next part will be finishing off what you thought of your own presentation. After that you can begin thinking about the experience in other ways. Things like what didn't you learn, or what you'd like to know more about, or what was unclear. Maybe you have ideas on how to improve cultural learning, both at Global Citizens and at the whole school. Write about whichever aspect you have thoughts about!
