Khmer Sight Foundation – December

Image may contain: 4 people

December is a pretty name, and in this month I got to do something I always wanted to do for along time! Finally, I got selected to be one of the volunteers on an eye-sight mission with the collaboration from the Khmer Sight Foundation. We went to a village around Kondal province. When arrived at the scene, I saw many old people and I was feeling happy that they really care about their eyes/health. Through this mission, I get to learn how to do eye-test using the E strategy, and help those elders. It feels amazing to have helped those people because with this project, those elders would be able to see clearly again.

Food Distributing in the Community

During a weekend around November, I volunteered to be one of 6 students to distribute the food [and sunglasses] for the elders in a community nearby Liger. We were collaborating with Khmer Sight Foundation (KSF) in order to make this project happen. One of the main purpose of the project was to help the elders check their eyes vision since it’s actually an important problem in Cambodia that people should address on. But I wasn’t in the project at the next day, so I was actually only helping on giving out the food and walking around the community with KSF people to find issues of that specific place. At the end of the day, I was happy to be involved in this kind of project because all I wanted to do is to help people in my community or around the world. I guess you kind of understand that feeling where you get to do things that could bring happiness or change someone’s life. I am looking forward to involve more with this kind of projects and hope that my little action could affect the people around me.

Photoshop Day!

On a Sunday afternoon I did a Photoshop workshop with one of our facilitators. I learned how to do basic photo editing using white balance, photo filter, curves, exposure, saturation and other tools! Here are a few photos I edited!

Liger Independence Day 2017

This is year on November 10th, we were celebrating the Liger Independence Day 2017! This is the 2 years anniversary of the day the Cambodia ministry stated that Liger students will pass automatically without taking the grade 9 and 12 exams. That day we played so many games and having a bike tour from the Bike Business Exploration.  At the end of the day, everyone were so tired and I was so glad to learn more about rural Phnom Penh from the Exploration.

Basketball

Basketball is one of my favourite sports. I practice basketball every Monday from 4:20pm – 5:20pm. Often, in a game, I am the passer or the shooter. I let my other teammates dribble the ball because they have a better control. In this ASE, the coach (Jeff) help us to practice our passing, shooting, and dribbling skills. At the end of the practice, we would have a game together, usually it’s 5 on 5. Sometimes, we have a competition with other school at the end of the year or on Parents Day.

Model United Nations (ISPPMUN2017)

It’s that time of year again, where the ISPPMUN returned. This year, I wasn’t one of the delegates though, I was a part of the press team. I took this opportunity to practice my photography skill and to meet new people. I spent most of my times walking into different committees to take pictures and to see the debates. I also created a short film summarizing the whole event, and it got shown at the end of the ending-ceremony. It was hard for me to make the video because I have to record everything every day and edited it at the same time. However, I was happy because I get to share my creativity and my passion in filmmaking. 

Below are some photos I’ve taken at the conference.

Math

លទ្ធផល​រូបភាព​សម្រាប់ khan academy

In Math class, we used Khan Academy to further our math experience. We used to learn a lot about statistics, probability, and algebra. One of my favourite algebra formulas is the quadratic formula (ax^2 + bx + c). Now we are focusing on geometry. Right now, I am using Khan Academy to practice a lesson in part of geometry called Transformation.

Physic

In Physic class, we learned so many [complicated] things. Currently, we are focusing on Static and Kinetic Frictions. In my opinion, physic is interesting but I often forget what to do during a test or assignment in order to find the answer. I find it hard to understand the definition behind a certain topic. I will try to work harder in Physic by asking my friends or my teacher when I’m stuck on a problem.

We had a lab in one of our Physic weeks. The lab objective was to determine the coefficient of static friction for multiple materials, and to solidify our understanding of friction. You can read our report here!
