The MUN Xperience!!

MUN , also known as the Model United Nations  is an academic simulation of the UNITED NATIONS that aims to educate participants about the current events , topics in international relations , diplomacy , UN agenda and etc etc ........ and the list goes on. Therefore I took part in my first ever MUN , which was conducted by HPS - Hyderabad Public School , Ramananthapur. 

So , it all had to be formal , gees .... so i had my suit stitched , bought some new shoes etc. Then came the day , 17 September 2012 , phew .... exited and well , tensed as it was my first. Suit on , shoes on entered the 'Delegate of Italy' ....representing the committee of NATO,  well they were others too.  Lemme introduce them to you....

Me and Anirudh Pendyala - NATO


"Fir hum log cab me HPS ke safar par chal nikle..... hindi ka safar nai ... english ka safar.... S.U.F.F.E.R"... seriously , the back seat of the cab , thought i would puke on the way. 

After reaching HPS , we were warmly welcomed. Met few old friends and made new ones,we all started greeting our allies , like Germany , Belgium , Canada , Norway , USA , England etc and many more. And then the session began.


NATO - The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation , this committee had about 26-27 members and we being the first timers , didn't know what to do. We were not not active in the first session , but yes , we rocked the second session. Oops sorry ... I rocked. :p

We made good friends over there and our committee chair only had girls. :D 

Day 2 was even more shocking!! We were the most active country in the First session , but then came the CRISIS situation. Damn that thing. It was a imaginary situation which turned out to be true in real. The Russian delegate was an element of surprise. We were shocked. This made us inactive.  Then day 3 , was a bore as well. But at the end , came the entertainment session when me and the chair had fun with the GANGNAM STYLE.  

It was a super duper experience. And i'll cherish those moments forever in my life.
