It is over! I have my diploma and on Monday I’ll have my grade showing that I’ve participated the 29th EAMUN (East African Model UN) session which, according to my teacher, is something that will help a lot if put in appliances for collages and universities.
I’m going to post more pictures later, some of me, my classmates, my diploma and the funny notes that we passed around during the week.
For now I’ll just try and explain one of the best things that happened during the MUN week. But to do that I have to tell you that there are very strict rules. For example you always have to speak in diplomatic terms, listen to the chairperson speaking and respect him/her and stick to the dress code. One huge no no is if a guy roles up his sleeves.
So what happened was this: A guy called to the chair true his microphone “Point of information to the chair” (which is what you say if you want to address the chair). The chair answered “State your point”. The guy then said “Could the chair please unroll his sleeves” (OOOooooHHH, for your information there were a lot of guys like this just wishing to be funny). Complete silence. Everyone just looks at the chairperson, a guy who just as everyone else is sweating like a pig in the overcrowded assembly hall and who has therefore pulled up his sleeves just above the wrists. He pulls them down but not all the way. The guy calls out again “Point of information to the chair, can you please unroll your sleeves”. The chairperson who is buy then sick and tired of being interrupted by idiots every other seconds then screams as high as he can “Would the person who said that come up and do it himself”! Chaos, applause, shouts of approval, everyone ecstatic.
Don’t know if you understand how big off a deal that was. But it really was!
By the way tomorrow I get to climb Mt. Longonot which I missed last time!
