MWS Mosaic 2025: How it changed my perception of microorganisms!

-
The Mosaic is a big event at my school when everyone that has an after-school club (\Basketball Club, for example) shows their skills in many ways, like doing a presentation, displaying their projects in an exhibition, having a sport match, and using their skills to coach parents. Other than that, the Mosaic has a fair that has drinks, food, and even sushi, for some reason. The Mosaic lasted for a few days: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. 

I joined three clubs this year, STEM, basketball, and debate. That's why I had to participate in three events: a STEM workshop, a debate showcase, and a basketball match. 

While I enjoyed all three, I liked the STEM workshop the most. In that workshop, we had various experiments to learn the benefits of microorganisms. You might think that all microorganisms are harmful. I used to think the same! MEvery time I heard the word "microorganism," my mind immediately went to the COVID-19 virus. But through the workshop, I discovered that some microorganisms are actually helpful to humans. For example, they’re used to make tempeh, yogurt, and even bread. If you're curious to learn more, I’ve created a summary on Canva. You can find out more about them in my presentation, which I provided down below.

A student's view of the 2024 Millennia Culture Week

-
Русский журнал by Agha Athmar Last semester, we had a Culture Week festival at our school. Culture Week is a festival that our school celebrates once every two semesters. It involves bringing the culture of multiple countries together, usually done by students. The way culture week works is that there are booths, one for each country group. Then, every grade divides their kids into two country groups for culture week. On the day of the Culture Week festival, all the groups are in their booths, greeting the guests. After that, at the end of the festival, there's always a performance and an award giveaway.  Our entire class contributed to the Culture Week festival by representing Egypt and Russia. I was in the Russia group with my friends Alvaro, Hira, Arthur, Nara, Lal, Gian, Abia, Mika, and some other friends that I couldn't remember. We were divided into groups, one for performances, one for decorating the booth, one for the traditional food, and one for the informati...

My Visit To Bali - Part 1

-

In 2023, I went on a vacation to Bali with my parents. It all started with my school break and my dad's work break. Since it was a last-minute decision, my dad, my mom, and I found ourselves with nothing to do for the next three weeks. With plenty of free time, we decided to spend a large portion of the vacation in Bali, which meant we had to fly there. While everyone else was enjoying their time at their homes, my family was busy packing and preparing for the trip. We planned to fly out on Tuesday. Tuesday finally arrived—the big day! We headed to the Soekarno Hatta international airport for our flight early in the morning. I was super excited, especially since I love flying. Once we got there, we checked in our suitcases and got in line for security, which was crazy crowded—like a zoo! There were two lines: one for families and one for business travelers, and we had to take the family line. Normally, when Dad’s traveling for work, he skips the family line and takes the business t...

Millennia World School Harmony In Action 2025

A few weeks ago, my school announced that we’d be having an event called Harmony in Action . It’s something we do every year, and it lasts for a whole week. Each day has a different theme—like Costume Day or a Book Fair—so there’s always something special just about everyday. You’re probably wondering what the week looked like, and what I did during those days. So, let’s get to it folks! Monday: Opening for Harmony in Action On Monday, we had a lot of stuff to do in the morning, like bringing books we needed to donate and an opening ceremony for Harmony in Action. The ceremony began with an opening from the student MC and a speech from the school director. Just in case you didn't know, a school director is different compared to a principal. The director's name is Ms. Mahrukh, but I don't know the principal's name. Don't blame me of not knowing the principal's identity, because my classmates don't know either! Anyway, back to the ceremony. Most of the ceremon...
