While I was opening my CD bag to find Window CD for formatting my disk, I unexpectedly found a decorative letter inside the bag. As soon as I saw , I was really curious about the letter; where was it from? Then, I started to take and see its cover. Actually, it was the letter that one of my friends gave to me when I left Cambodia. Why was I that ignorant? It has been nearly 6 months since I came here but I didn't read that letter yet. After that, I started to open and read that letter. Really long and funny to me of course. Many wishes ! ! ! Thank so much !
This Weekend
Took the bicycle and rode it somewhere around where I live this weekend. Unexpectedly, saw a very cool place. Started thinking of taking photos, but no camera with me. Fortunately, I brought my phone which was good enough to take some below photos.
Took me about 35mn by bicycle to the place
Made me feel homesick
I had to reach the block of those buildings :)
Another Shot
So cool !
Wow ! ! !
A bit tired due to this shot
Finally reached my destination
Came back home a bit late and a bit tired of riding bicycle, but felt so good :)) gonna go there again someday.
Lucky or Unlucky ?
I hold my breath when my teacher was about to tell who ranked number 1,2 and 3 for this semester. I didn't dare believe it ! I got number 1 for this summer semester. Really excited and happy anyway. At least I didn't waste my effort for this semester as I did in the previous semester.
A moment later, I was told that eventhough I got number 1 but I couldn't get any gifts even a certificate of appreciation because I already got a scholarship to study in Korea. Thus, this position was given to another student. I suddenly found myself speechless in front of my teacher. What I could say was " It is ok ". I almost couldn't bear the situation.
A day after, we all gathered in the hall for the last day. Also, it was the day that gifts and certificate of appreciation were given to good students. Seeing other students getting presents while I was sitting in on the activity made me a bit upset. But, I tried to pretend there was nothing wrong with me. In fact, really upsetted me so much !
Preparation For My Speaking Test - 2
As I mentioned in my previous post, I prepared a designed poster for my Speaking Test. Moreover, I also had to prepare what I was going to present on that day in advance. For presentation, students were given at least 3mn and at most 5mn to present. It's a bit difficult for me of course since I am still not good at Korean Language yet. Finally, despite difficulty I managed to finish and present it well on that day. Below is my speaking on that day.
Speaking in Korean :

Preparation For My Speaking Test - 1
Hmm, what's a relief ! Today I finished all of my Korean language final exam for this summer course. I am gonna start another new fall course soon. But enjoy my three-week vacation first ! :) I'm thinking of some plans for this vacation. What am I going to DO? ~~~
In my school, it usually takes 2 days to finish an examination. For the first day, there are Grammar Test, Reading Test and Writing Test; for the second day, the last two tests are Listening Test and Speaking Test. Particularly, for Speaking test we were asked to do a presentation this time, which is my very first time to do a presentation in Korean, but we were given the topic in advance so that we could prepare well before doing the presentation.
The given topic for Speaking Test for this final exam was "Making a Club". Students were supposed to make a club they prefered, tell some details and give explanation to listeners about their club in order to attract listeners to join their club. Also, students were required to designed a poster to represent their club. The poster could be made by hand-drawing or computer.
For me, the chosen club is Dancing Club. Why did I come out with the idea of making such a club? Since I am not good at drawing a picture, I decided to make the poster by using computer. Thus, I tried to find out some pictures I could use for my poster. While I was surfing Internet, I unexpectedly found many pictures of dancing people and could think of what I was going to design so I decided to make the dancing club.
Here is my poster

슈퍼주니어 VS 소녀시대 - Gee Gee Gee
Nowadays in Korea a group of male singers known as 슈퍼주니어 is very famous while another well-known group of female singers, 소녀시대, also gains much popularity from their audience. Let say I am also one of their fans nowadays. I started to know a 슈퍼주니어 group, which consists of 11 male singers, through one of their famous song, Sorry Sorry. And, they recently released another song, Gee Gee Gee, Which used to be a famous song of 소녀시대, and this song is still famous now . Also, because of this song I started to know a 9-female singer 소녀시대 group. Here are two different videos of Gee Gee Gee. Of course the songs are the same but sung by different groups of singers.
슈퍼주니어 - Super Junior ( cool dance )
소녀시대 - Girl Generation ( beautiful ! ! ! )
Have You Viewed It Yet?
Sokun Nisa ! You guys actually know this person since she is one of the most famous female singers in Cambodia. By any chance, some of you are also fans of her, aren't you? To me, she is also my favorite singer since she started to sing for Hang Meas Company. Nowadays I still remember one of the most beautiful songs, Het Phal Ke Trov Banchop, sung by her with the other male singer, Sovannareach, who is also my favorite singer. Really cool ! Not only is her voice soft but she is also a very beautiful singer.
Sokun NisaToday I accidentally viewed her official website and there is much update on her site. In fact, today was not my first time to view her site because I used to view it many time already since I was in Cambodia, but that time the site was under construction. The site is really fancy and of course there are many photos and some collection of her famous songs in the site.
