On March 7th2015, the International Students’
Committee organised by far the best night of the year – the International Cultural
Evening. It was an evening of dance and music performances by students from all
years ranging from different countries all coming together to celebrate the cultural
diversity here at the University of Sheffield. Ten national societies performed
and the Indian Society for which I was performing, won first place! Sri Lankan
Society came in second followed by PakSoc, which placed third. All the
performances had been rehearsed for weeks prior to the event so the excitement
was built up amongst the participants and this definitely came across on stage
as the audience too joined in by cheering them on.
As we celebrated our victory that evening, we were randomly
stopped by two people on the street who recognised us from our performance and
congratulated us – hands down the best feeling ever!
ICE was a massive success this year and I eagerly look
forward to the next time I can get involved! Here’s to ICE 2016 and to everyone
that performed this year!
