Having been working hard in promotion activity and looking forward to participating in the World Camp, we’ve finally passed through this fantastic event when students, totally 1072 from almost every university in Phnom Penh, gathered and experience good change, new challenge, and strong cohesion.
World Camp was celebrated at both NIE and Naga World, participated by 1,592 students of which 1,072 are Cambodian students and others are from Thailand, Vietnam, and Korea. We met at 8:00 in the morning and dispersed at around 8:30 pm. In each day we moved between NIE and Naga World. We would have lunch and dinner at NIE and do other activities at Naga World.
We watched many cultural performances by Righteous Star dance group, Rio Montana, students from Lincoln school, and Gracias Choir. Righteous Star made us alive; Rio Montana’s guitar playing and songs mad us high; Lincoln school’s performances brought us to different cultures; and Gracias’ music brought peace to our mind.
We would have dinner at round tables with 10 people each. I ate every meal with different people. Some tables were noisy but some were quiet.
The most interesting session would be the Academy class. On 17th, there were 8 classes including Dance, Taekwando, Rio Montana Song, Rio Montana Guitar, Photography, Korean Mask Art, Korean Language, and Good New Corp (GNC) program. However, most students are interested in only Taekwando, Dance, Photograph, and Rio Montana Guitar. Therefore, the next day other classes were cancelled. On 19th, the last day of Academy class, a class of how to make Kim Chi was created responding to the request of Dr. Ock Soo Park, the founder of IYF.
Being a team leader is somewhat difficult. I had to arrive there earlier than the participants and supervise my group members. In addition, I had to write a report at night after returning home. Despite of these, I did learn something from this leadership and enjoy the process.
From World Camp, I learned to be brave and open-minded. I tried to communicate with and smile to people I don’t know; I challenged myself by learning Taekwando and dancing; I tried to talk more than I used to do.
