1- Activities

At first, we barely know each other yet “Marawi’s Best - Trade Fair” were the reason that made us all unite and

created a bond in just a week. We were like strangers to each other at the first day but as days passed we are like friends

for more than a year. While we were calling for customers and grabbing attention we also participated at the trade fair’s

activities called Parlor Games at the second day and at the last day of the trade fair. We also conducted a giving fliers to

the people and students at MSU Main areas and a we also conducted a promotional activities by posting our products on

social medias, like Facebook etc. My favorite part of

2 - Experiences

Being one of the trader at the “Marawi’s Best - Trade Fair” was such an experience for me because it was an

exciting and an amazing job that I’ve done in my whole life. It was my first time being exposed in public especially while

trading or selling. It made me a second version of me or should I say the best version of me. It boosted and developed my

social skills or communicating skills when it comes talking and meeting with strangers. But of all my experiences my

favorite one is having friends wherever I go, it’s like a scenario that I don’t think it would happen but then again it happened

in a good way. It was such an honor for me as a freshmen to participate at the said event “Marawi’s Best - Trade Fair”

3 - Things Learned

To be honest, I couldn’t say I learned less or more but still I could say I learned somethings after the trade fair. After

st
the trade fair were announced that they will be closing the trade fair at the 1 day of September in the afternoon while we

th
are celebrating the 58 founding anniversary of MSU-Main Campus. I felt happy, relieved and a little bit lonely. I was

happy because it will be over and our hardships were paying for our success but yet still I was sad because I suddenly

thought that this is an once in a lifetime opportunity for me and it reached it’s ended and I will miss the trade fair. After the

trade fair I learned that opportunities comes once in a lifetime so grab that opportunity and do all of your efforts at it’s best

and show people that you can ride with them in a good day. What I mean is show them that you can play with their games,

you should go with the flow and be a business mind set person because everything that I’ve just said that I learned, is you

can bring it to your future activities or challenges and it might help you be a successful man in the future. Also I learned

having friends without hesitation and being not a choosy person.
