International Leadership Academy 2010, Forth Worth, Texas

15 July 2010 - 3 August 2010

I joined the Sisters City Program named International Leadership Academy 2010 which was held in Forth Worth, Texas!!

There were 17 students from my school (include me) and 1 student from another school joined in Indonesia Delegates. My two english teacher and one government staff were also accompanied us.



And then Taddddaaa! We arrived at Dallas-Forth Worth Airport after almost 30hours flight and transit (Jakarta-Taipei-Los Angeles-Dallas) totally exhausted and messy!



The ILA program was held in Texas Christian University, Forth Worth Texas. Paul the former president of TCU came to picked us up.

And the program began! I met lots of people from another country such as Italy, Germany, Swaziland, Japan, and of course the most friendly one: Texas! My roommate is Shelby Roberts. She was so energetic and lovely. i love her so much!

Texas was hot like me (oh come on!) therefore for the very first time, i didn't get use to it, i got collapse and was sent into the nearest hospital (okay this one is kindda embarrassing) but the rest of it, i thought i could handle it

My Team name was "INTERNATIONAL PEACE MAKERS" that's totally cool, wasn't it! i love everyone in my team and i was glad having them all in my team!



actually i love everyone and miss everyone in ILA, i don't wanna go home and if i could, i've stayed there for the rest of my life. but fortunately, everyone in Indonesia was missing me more, so i had to go back home

That was the greatest time in my life. i will not ever ever ever forget it
