" Take a great shower, eat a good breakfast, relax my nerves...and everything would be cool...I hope..."
Today is the day that I will show my face to other countries in the World Conference meeting. I maybe excited in the outside, but in the inside, my heart was beating quickly and my blood got warmer. I'm pretty nervous because I don't know how they will look at me. They might see me as a low-class country and I might its next victim of invasion. If it happens, then I'll have to be ready to fight them at all cost. Plus, I have to study their personalities myself and see which one will make that move. Other than that, I plan to get along with them.
I put on a forest green dress shirt which had gold buttons going straight down, a black dress skirt, and flat shoes. As for my hair...well, I tied it at the bottom and hung it over my left shoulder. After eating a healthy and boosting breakfast, I called for a ride and head outside to wait. After thirty minutes, the cab arrives. I get inside the cab and my ride to the Conference Hall begins.
The ride lasted for at least an hour and I was dropped off somewhere close to the Conference Hall. I got this map yesterday which will help me find my way to the area...but it turns out that the map was worthless. I got lost and I think I'm really far from the area now. I check my watch to see if I can still make it on time. I have ten minutes to arrive to this conference. At that moment, I freak out about not being punctual. I retrace my steps hoping that I find the place, but still, I can't find the location. Then, I go crazy even more when I found that I have six minutes left. I keep telling myself, "Mi guh beh late."
A woman with short blonde hair spots me getting scared. She walks up to me and she asks, " What's the matter?"
" I'm not going to make it on time. I'm going to a meeting today and I must be on time. But I don't think I will..."
"Oh, you must be the new member. Great to meet you."
"I don't an to rude, but can we PLEASE cut the chattering and let's just go already?!"
"Oh! I'm sorry. Let's hurry."
The blonde woman grabs my arm and we begin to run to the Conference Hall together. I'm glad I wore flat shoes because my feet would be hurting if I wore heels.
The woman and I arrive to the meeting with one minute to spare and I take my seat. I look around the conference room and I see that there are so many men in the room. There were four females in the room, including myself. I do feel pretty weird being around so many men. It's like I have a harem.
The meeting begins with a very loud voice that boomed the room.
"Good! Now that everyone is present, we can now begin the meeting. First, there's a new country here and she must introduce herself." a blonde man says.
I knew he was talking about me because I'm the only new country who is in the room. The two countries that I sat in the middle of look at me. One smiled brightly at me while the other stares with an unreadable face. Not to mention, that they're both males. I sigh and manage to stand up with trembling legs. After standing up, I realize that all the countries have their eyes on me. A pair of eyes that belonged to a girl who wore a purple dress made me even more nervous.
"Okay..." I whisper to myself then introduced aloud, " Hello! My name is Jamaica and I hope to get along with all of you!"
Finally, I got the introduction off my chest. At first, the room still remained silent until a happy voice yells out, " Hello, Jamaica!" I look to my left to see a man with brown hair which had an odd curl sticking out. He was waving at me happily. Probably after the meeting, I'll talk to the countries. I have this feeling that I'll fit in. I think I'll be alright...
Then, the meeting actually begun with the man mentioning an issue that is going on. I listen to everything that he's saying. At that moment, a country made a disagreement. A country known as America, came up with an idea that we should get a superhero to fix up whatever the problem was. I shake my head slowly because of how unrealistic his idea is. Another country disagreed with America's idea just by saying that it has to be an idea that has to relate to REAL LIFE. His voice sounded like a British accent and I knew by the voice that it was Britain. I can forgive for controlling my country since we're actually going to be working together from now on. Then, a Frenchman cites out his idea which puts Britain in the position of disagreement as well. The entire meeting went on with ideas after ideas and disagreements after disagreements. Some just sat back and watched them talk nonsense. I have to at least help keep it in control,so blurt out as loud at I could by saying,
" Everyone shut up and listen! If the problem is taxes, its either that we have to deal with it, increase it or decrease it. No superhero fuckery and no putting stereotypical phrases on other countries please. Does it sound that hard? I don't think so. Now, give out some realistic ideas."
The countries that were fighting with each other stopped their bickering and looked at me. I made an exasperated sigh and cross my arms. After that, the meeting the started off with dumb ideas slowed down by giving out reasonable ones. But, it only made the meeting at bit longer. About an hour later, the meeting finished. I got to admit that this meeting...was hell of crazy...
