Multi-Culti!

Every year, IESE throws an event that combines all the best that it has to offer - rambunctious, creative, gluttonous students from all over the world. From 6pm to midnight, they rent out a huge space by the beautiful Mont Juic and every country represented by a student at IESE sets up a booth where they serve traditional foods, but, more importantly, traditional drinks!

I tried to join the Russians, but I rarely talk to any of them. Additionally, IESE only has me listed as an American, since I only have a US passport, so I was never on any of the Russian communication. Hence, I joined TEAM AMERICA!!!

The best part of being on Team America was the performance we put together. Led by Mr. Aaron Powers (tall guy, front and center) we practiced for a week straight in our living room...although clearly that was not enough. The main thing to keep in mind during this disastrous performance, is the fact that the event started at 6pm, and we didn't go on until 9pm...we were all following Aaron, and he had been drinking for at least 3 hours at that point. Most of the team was far from sober as well...We had a blast, though, and this was the final result:





I shifted allegiances throughout the evening, after copious amounts of Polish vodka, russian blintzes, and Brasilian capirinhas....
