There were more than 500 participants in this workshop. We were offered some snacks—a bottle of water and a bread, and we were also given a piece of paper in which there were two or three questions related to the workshop that we had to answer at the end of each workshop. Our answers will be used to evaluate our appropriateness to be a volunteer in this World Camp, since not all participants will be chosen.
Personally, I like the performance of the group of dancers whose dancing is based on different cultures—Japan, South Africa, and Korea. Every performance had its uniqueness. Besides, we were also introduced to two Korean volunteers through a form of play based on a true-to-life personal experience. Both of them had a problem within their family which made them lose hope in life and was defeated by obstacles, but finally they realized the truth meaning of living after joining IYF. I’m not sure how many percent of the story is true, but it does teach us a lesson like what we learn from a literature work. Before coming to the end of each workshop, the Chairman of IYF in Cambodia would have a long talk about the world of human mind. The talk would seem boring if one doesn’t pay attention and develop a deeper thought while he was listening. The Chairman told us several stories along with some analysis related to human thinking. Through the interpretation of his talk (he is a Korean), I fully understand about myself that there are several unwanted aspects within me which deter me from being successful in completing an intended goal. The workshop helps me build up my confidence and strengthen my determination. It suggests me to get rid of laziness and be brave to face up with challenge and make changes.
It’s a good opportunity to learn about yourself as you participate in the workshop of IYF. There are another two workshops which will be held before the World Camp starts on April 26. Therefore, interested students should participate if convenient.
