Picture yourself in the mid- dle of a foreign country trying to ask for directions without prior knowledge of the language spoken there. Would you feel lost, lonely and uncomfortable? Now try to picture the students of the International club trying to adjust to the the meandering halls of Jersey Village High School. For some it was difficult, but with the help of the instruc- tors of the International Club this problem became a dis- tant memory. President- Keo Senuong and Vice President David Kuang did their best to try to provide enthusiasm for foreign speaking students in the club. With the languages being so diverse among membership that was a dif- ficult job to undertake. Some of the languages that were spoken included Spanish, Vietnamese, and Laotian. An activity that was spon- sored by the club was the In- ternation Food Fair. This club provided as many diverse entries as languages within the group. The people from different countries and places of the world created their world at JV while they shared their culture and ideas. Written by Laura Jorden.
