Vietnam Ultimate Mekong Cup 2017

On the 28th of October, I am pleased to participate in the Mekong Cup in Vietnam. This tournament lasts for two days. Many teams came from different countries such as: Taiwan, US, Philippine, Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and more. All the teams were very competitive and collaborative, they took this tournament very serious but also mixed with humor. This experience has leaded me to the next level of understanding of playing ultimate Frisbee. My past experience when I played in Philippine, I rarely touches the disc and I didn’t get to score any point however, this tournament is different , I got to touch more disc, passed more disc and score four points in the whole tournament. I am also very proud of my team because we won the game with Taiwanese team.  We won them by eight to five points. I am so happy to be apart of the team and help to build the team to thrive to the good point.

Standardize Aptitude Test PREP

Way back to October 14th, I spent my whole Saturday morning to take the SAT practice test as part of my math preparation for my future years of university.  The SAT was very challenging and has driven me crazy after I taken this first practice. In SAT their is Writing and Reading part and Math part. One of the most challenge part was taking reading test and math because they uses high vocabulary which was very confuse and the concept which I have never learn such as finding the length of the circle. My goal till the I’m taking this test again is to work on my weaknesses and will try my best to practice at least once or twice a week. Although, this is my first time but by the time I take it again, I’m surely thinks that I will be ready for it.

Model United Nations – ISPPMUN 2017

During October 20, 2017 I was so happy to be apart of the International School of Phnom Penh Model United Nation (ISPPMUN) of 2017. At the conference I represented as the delegate of the United State of America. This event lasts for three days, which were Friday, Saturday and Sunday. My committee was General Assembly 1 which were discussing about the topics of, the question of regulating small arms and lights weapons proliferation, the questions of using private military and security company, and last is, the role of resilient healthcare in global security. On the second day I worked with many other delegates to finish up our resolution on the topic relates to resilient healthcare. We then have the debate section where all the delegates in the room involved in discussing on our resolution. Some of the delegates have made the amendments to add or strike or amend different clauses. This was my second times of participation as the delegate and I felt that every year I learn more and more about how this MUN system is run like and understand the flow of debating. The experience that gain from this event is the collaboration, hard work, competition between us and the other delegates. On the third day of the conference there was a plenary section, which were debating on the resolution that I have made with my others five delegates. I was able to go up on the big stage and talk to the multitude of people and as I talk I can see that there are more than 200 pairs of eyes were staring at me. It was terrified to me but I was so happy to be apart of this big conference and the chance to represent as the delegate of USA from Liger Leadership Academy.

This is my resolution that were discussed the plenary section:

Dinosaurs Discovery In Battambong

On September 25, 2017, my exploration group traveled all the way up to Battombang Province to expand our learning experience of dinosaurs. We spent two days discovering and investigating the footprints on the stones at the site. I learned a variety of skills such as field methodology and fossil identification techniques. I also made castings of the footprint by using plaster and clay. My team found approximately 16 footprints during the two days at the site. This experience has motivated me to be resilient while working in hot conditions and exploring new scientific methods. The knowledge gained from this made the scientific method more relevant and understandable.

AOUGCC Championship Philippine

During August 18, 2017, I was pleased to travel to Manila the capital city of the Philippine to participate in Asian Oceanic Ultimate and Guts Club Championships (AOUGCC). It was three days of competing the ultimate frisbee, many teams were from Asian and Oceanic countries such as: Taiwan, Japan, Australia, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, China, Cambodia and many more. That was my first time competing in the international competition. It was a great experience to see many people involved in this sport and I am proud of my team that we were there to represent Cambodia. Many players were adults unlike us, Liger’s students. After many games, the others teams asked us, “how old are you guy?” We told them that we are 15 years old; many of them were shock and was delighted to see young Cambodian girls participate in this big competition. The experience that obtained from this competition made me to be stronger in athlete and proud to be born as Cambodia and bring Cambodia name out to the world in this contemporary day.
