Day 10

I finally got to post these days as new posts!!

Hey guys its day 10 I have been having trouble with the wifi so I haven't been able to post. Furthermore, I am having problems posting an actual comment...., so now that I am done complaining I'll let you know how my past few days have been.

Yesterday, we whent to the Peace Palace, home of the ICJ. It was incredible, we sat in the seats of people from around the globe. We also got to see where hearings were given and trials were heald.

Committee has been great although my ambassador responsibilities often pull me out of committee, which is unfortunate. Don't get me wrong though being an ambassador is great; today I waived the Ukrainian flag as a band played in the World Forum theater. Also, today, being part of the GA, I went to the Planery session. Which, is where all GA (general assembly) deleagtes from a country debate over the best resolution of each committee. Although, slow and 5 hours long it was also a great and new experience.

Today, I also went to the ICTY (international criminal tribunal of Yugoslavia), which was mind boggling. Sitting on the other side of a piece of glass was a man who committed genocide (I forgot the name, but I'll post it later).

I am sad the conference is over, but at the same time a little happy. Yesterday I started getting sick and now I have a cold, which kind of forced my day to be me blowing my noise every 5 minutes.

Tonight is my host sisters birthday and we are having a party. Also, we are going to the THIMUN delegate dance.

I'll post again as soon as I can...., and oh ps I have ansewered many of the questions on the last blogs. Sorry I hadn't done it until no, but I had forgotten to respond earlier.
