The Send-Off Party
The Send-Off
Party
Iloilo
Science and Technology University held a send-off party for four of us, me,
Jeng Anggi Priyatni, Yohana Nenestalia, and Nuttaphong Yoodbonheung on February
15th. This farewell party was held on the third floor HRT hotel, on
the HRT function room. There were so many people attended the party, including
the president of ISAT U, Dr. Raul F Muyong, the dean of College Education, Dr.
John Eric Janueza, our coordinator, Mrs. Shailani, and our closest friends in
ISAT U, Ms. Shelah Torotoro, Mr. Charlie Robles, Mr. Jose Nino J. Maravilla,
Mr. John Lorence, Rudica, Marty, Jane, and Pearl. Four of us, the exchange
students, did not miss the party.
There many
of them gave their short speech to let us go, including the president and the
dean of college education. Four of us also gave our speech, even though it mixed
with cries. We thanked to all people in ISAT U who welcomed us with a very warm
welcome, great service, and great hospitability, until we felt like living at
home. It was really comfortable to stay there because the people are so kind,
and we did not have to adapt ourselves with the weather because it is the same
with our country’s weather.
At the
send-off party, we had our performance. Yohana Nenestalia from Banjarmasin
perfomed a dance, it is a dance of Malay Zapin. After that, three of us sang
one of Indonesian’s national song entitle ‘Tanah Air Beta’, or in English is ‘My
Homeland’.
Jeng Anggi
Priyatni and I gave a plaque of our university, Tanjungpura University. Yohana
Nenestalia gave her university’s plaque, Lambung Mangkurat University. Meanwhile,
Nuttaphog Yoodbonheung gave his university’s plaque, Kon Khen University. Unfortunately,
I don’t have the pictures of us giving the plaques to the President of ISAT U.
