Mini Personal Narrative

( Icons/Flat-icon)

Pchum Ben day was a day of the break and also was a day for me to celebrate. Everyone comes from different directions to find their home to come to see their lovely parent during the celebrated day. It such an amazing and fantastic day for all the people gathering to meet their family. Morning came and the sunrise up like an orange with the blue water around make sensational scenery. I already got up at 6 to help my parent cook food to go to a pagoda. Everyone wore nice and clean clothes and ready to go. For me, I wore a white shirt and black jeans like the government school uniform. My parents and my siblings wore great Khmer traditional clothes. Now it was a time for me to go to the pagoda and celebrate the Pchum benday.

Step to another step and I already arrived at the pagoda, I felt so natural because tree around the pagoda and the birds singing and the monks chanting. I saw a lot of people came to the pagoda to celebrate their own religion including me. Everyone looks serious, quiet and tidy and the monks were chanting and the citizens were sitting listening to the monks. My family meets together. Everyone smile and everyone cheer. When I saw people go to the pagoda, it reminds of the day of 10 October 2017, it was a day that my parent and I went to a pagoda together. After I went to a pagoda, I felt pieces and my heart calms in front of the Buddhist. Pchum Ben was a big celebration in Cambodia, My mom didn’t give the gift to me in that day but she gave a bright and happiest life to me and that was the biggest gift ever that you never forgot even though you are a teachers, doctors, professors, students, workers, engineers, and etc. You will never ever forgot the day that you started your life.

I spend more than two hours in the pagoda with my parents and all of my old friends in a government school and we were play together while my parents stay in the pagoda with my siblings. I enjoy this holiday and everyone get a day off from work. Sleep and got up and again sleep and got up, it was the day of the holiday over and the day of school. I said goodbye to my lovely family and goodbye everything around my house and something that I spend time with and I will see you again when the Pchum Ben celebration come again.

STEM

STEM is my skill that I need to find out, sometimes I shout out loud because don’t understand but I will try as I can to understand, what is STEM? Technology is free for me to use to find out and learn and I will earn in STEM class, science, technology, engineer, and math that what I learn with my teacher. Four subjects together make me become a better learner in a class.

Matter, Mass, and other of what I learned and what I earn with my brain. STEM class needs my brain but I will change as along to go. Math need math brain and STEM class needs STEM brain then I will be fine when I go to STEM.

Sometimes it made feel angry and also made me freshly because I gained knowledge. Mass and weight that I never known but soon I understood it. People use weight to say as for how heavy you are. Mass, they thought that it is science but when I go home for Phum ben, I will show my parent of what is the different. They going to say that I am crazy but the reality is real. It is something new that people need to know and I will show so they will know soon. This break, I will tell them of what I learned in STEM to those people

STEM needs VARK, VARK will help you to Visual, and it will apply to become a good Auditory, but if you are busy then at night try to Read to Write but don’t be shy to kinesthetic to people.

Learn and share is a good experiment and when I go to chum ben I will do it. Love it and do it because it is life, Learn as much as you can then one day you will stop to find the meaning of life. Everything is good if you make it well.

Mathematics

Math is a good subject that everyone has to know and understand because you will use it for the rest of your life. Math is everywhere around you. I learned math with my friend and I also helped them how to do the problem? I tell them, how to do the problems and also teach them with strategies. Method for mental calculation lesson that I used my brain so much was calculated the math in your brain without writing it down to know the answer, you have to do the addition or multiplication or subtraction in your brain without doing it on the paper. After you know the answer, you have to write it down on the paper whether it wrong or right, you will compare your answer with your friend to know which one is right or wrong. It was so confusing because I can’t remember the number of the multiplication but anyway, I did it.

Geography Project

The day of learning and the day of understanding of my learning. Exploration is my big project for me this year. I have been doing In-Design for 7 weeks. I felt like I done with it with my good design. During this exploration, I learn how to design the content in the chapter and also learn how to use the Adobe software while I design the chapters and the cover of the book. One thing that I enjoy with this Exploration was drawing the icons to put on the cover of the Geography book that I have been designed. I’m drawing about traditional things and modern things in Cambodia. This exploration, it made me felt amazing because I got a chance to make the books, sometimes people never get an opportunity to make the book for the next generation to look and learn from your book. If the book print, then I will give the book to the students in the government school to learn about the Geography of their own country. If you live in your country, you have to understand your country very well so you will easy to develop your country in the right and wonderful way.

These are the icons that I made!

  1. Angkor Wat             
  2. Independent Monument       
  3. Earth 

Photography

Photography is a skill that everybody should know but for me, I don’t like it at all but now I realize that it is important to take a photography skill. Take a look at photos that I took!

Disability Project

( People with Disability at PSE )

Along the road, there are a lot of students go to school to study. Some of the students are so smart. Everyone has their own subject that they like to learn the most. They have a lot of opportunities to study. Typical people can do everything they want. people with a disability should have the same opportunity as typically people do. There are different types of disability such as deaf, blind, on legs, no arms, autism, Intellectual, down syndrome, dyslexia and etc. All of those people should get the same education as typical people do. People were born to explore their own Life, they don’t know and get to prepare, what is going to happen in the future. If you never get disability then you never understand and know what it feels like? We know them from the outside but we don’t them from the inside. We can see, We can feel, We can smell, We can touch but we can’t taste. In a government school, I never see and learn about disability but after I go to Liger leadership Academy, I got to learn, understand, and see. I got to share my experience with other people in Liger sharation day. we should include people with disability. We should build a special school for this types of people because they are hard to understand like the typical people. they need time to understand, for example, if one typical student needs 15 minutes to understand so it means that student with  disability needs 30 minutes to understand. We should respect them and don’t bullying them otherwise they will do something different, some people angry of the typical people bullying them so they kill their own self because they think that they are different from other. I hope typical people and people with disability get the same opportunity to do something. We were born in one world, we should hold our hands together and change it.

Geography Highlights

                                                     Geography Project Team 

  • Oddar Meanchey
  • When I went to Angkor Wat temple, I saw a lot of foreigners that came to visit Angkor Wat, I am so proud of Cambodia because other country gets to know Cambodia.
  • Along a road, I saw the people who grew the rice in the rice field, I felt like I stay in the green nature.
  • I couldn’t believe that the people are working at rubber farm when I arrived there  I saw them, then I thought that they are the thieves but actually they were the worker on that farm.
  • Before I came to Liger school, I never get to interview the people but after this trip, I got to interview a lot of people and also the people that I interviewed, I never know them before.
  • I saw the people with disabilities worked, the leader of Weaves of Cambodia said that those of people, they got to work there because they didn’t have a job and also they have the disability so he wants to give the opportunity to them to have the job. People with disability, they were making the Khmer scarf to sell outside of the country but also in the country as well.
  • Preah Vihear temple is near to Thailand border.  When I went to the top of the Dongrek mountain and I stood there, I could see Thailand. Before I thought that Preah Vihear is only one temples  but then I went there I saw many temples there.
  • In Oddar Meanchey, at evening, I have taken one beautiful scenery in this province. The sky was orange mix yellow and red with nature all together they formed a beautiful scenery.
  • When I climbed up to Dong Rek mountain by car with my friend to see Preah Vihear temple, during sitting on the car and the back of the car and driving to the top of the mountain and everyone was shouting to each other like the bird is singing in the morning. We were shouting with excitement.
  • Day went pass so quickly that I nearly forgot memory about Samboprie Kok. When I went to this place, I felt like I stayed in that time because a guy who guides us was talking about the histories of all of those temples and they were interesting stories behind all the temples.
  • Kulen waterfall was so beautiful. That time everyone was shouting to our teacher that we want to swim, then our teacher allows us to swim and everyone prepared to swim after we prepared then everyone was jumping to the water every quickly like the dolphins. The water was very cold and I stayed under the waterfall but for the girls, they didn’t go to that place because it was very deep and far and also dangerous. Me and Chhay swam to that place and he was safe but for me I got a little bit hurt because the water was fall on my back then I couldn’t get up then I say to myself that I have to get out of this problem them finally I did it, overall it was very nice trip with my friends and also I hope to come back to all of those places again.

 

Khmer MUN

Have you ever do the Khmer MUN? If you never do it, let me tell you about it. After many weeks ago I was doing research for Khmer MUN. MUN means Model United Nation. It is similar to a big assembly. In this meeting, there are a lot of delegates will talk about the solutions. Delegate means a person who represents their country to find the solution to solve the problem.

In this meeting, there is a problem that the world is facing so all the delegates have to find the best solutions to solve the problem. They have to find more than five solutions, and all of the solutions must be different. In this assembly, there are different delegates and come from a different country. Now let talk back about the Khmer MUN, I never do Khmer MUN before, this is my first time that I got to do it. I was so excited and a little nervous but I can do it.

The beginning of the MUN all the delegates have to open the speech in their own country to the whole meeting one by one until all the delegates do their open speech and also before we do the opening speech, the chairs told us the role in this meeting. After opening speech, we continue to the solutions. The chairs gave us 30 minutes for the practice and prepare or find more solution to the topic. After 30 minutes went path, the main submitter has to read through the solution that they have read down. Solutions time, the chair was divided into two, there are the positive team and opposite team. It depends on their own country, does the country agree on the topic or disagree on the topic if the country agrees, so the delegate has to go to a positive team. In each tea, they have to choose one main submitter to read the solution to the whole meeting, after the main submitter read their solutions team already, negative team will ask some question about the solutions that they just read through and also in the next few minutes, the negative team will go up to read the solutions then positive team can ask about the solutions to negative team after they done their reading.

After the questions end, we move on to the next section, it was strike time. All the delegate can strike other team solution because you think that not right to do like that, then other teams will come to talk more specifically about their clauses to clarify about the solutions that you want to strike. It is nearly time for quote time. Finally, all the delegates were quoting for the best solutions to the topic. I just want to tell the readers that MUN isn’t about winning or losing, it isn’t the same as debating.

MUN is about finding the solutions to solve the problem that the people the around the world is facing nowadays. For example, the world now is using plastic bags, so if this is a problem then you have to find a good solution to solve it. But if your country doesn’t use many plastic bags then you can find positive solutions. You know that you agree because of the country, it isn’t about your opinion to choose to agree or disagree.

I hope one day Cambodia will have this meeting too. It is a good subject for the student in Cambodia to learn and get to know about it. If you become a leader in one day, if you go somewhere then you have to do the opening speech to another country about your country then you have to know how can you do the opening speech look great. This is so important that the students around the world should learn about it, start from young. Again I hope one day Cambodia government will put this subject it to school time for the students.
