No, We Didn’t All Perish

Hello folks,

This is Will. As I’m sure you’ve figured, the project is well over at this point. Sorry to leave you all hanging, but some people *cough*Rith*cough*MEi*coughcough* have yet to post. It got very hectic very quickly after the project ended, with half of us continuing to Siem Reap, and the other half scrambling to get home, so I apologize on behalf of the entire team.

Suffice to say a bunch happened on the last day, though, and I think that we have enough to talk about even after that for a while.

Eventually, though, I’d like to turn this blog over to some of the students. I’m sure they have the capability and the insight to maintain it however they see fit.

I’ll try and update again in a bit.

peace,
-W

June 28: Steung Mean Chey

Today was an emotional day for all of us. We were exposed, perhaps the first time to the extreme extent of sufferings in Cambodia. After all the beautiful Khmer dances, songs and costumes we have admired for the last couple of days, images of little kids struggling to survive, fighting against AIDS, or searching for what’s left valuable amongst the dump site will remain vivid in our minds after this project. So much needs to be done …

This morning we skipped our routinely walk to the park and had breakfast. The concert was over, the preparation for our next concert hasn’t started, today initially was relaxing and calm. That feeling didn’t last long. We headed to the first organization without much knowledge about their work except that their goal is to provide treatment and care for children with HIV-AIDS. It is “New Hope for Cambodian Children” funded by private donors in the United States. Welcoming us with a big grin, John, the director of NHCC, gave an orientation about their work and the support they got from Bill Clinton, who raised 50 million US dollars for children with HIV-AIDS in the world. There in front of us were kids ranging from 3 to 16 eating, walking around, being comforted by their caretakers or simply sitting in silence. Tida, with her hair dyed light brown, jumped on John. She looked at us for awhile, shy and curious. Who are all these strangers that just come and go? She must have seen many groups like ours. Tida is Vietnamese and as many other Vietnamese with HIV-AIDS, is denied treatment at the hospital. As John said, many times he had to walk the children to the doctors at the hospital to make sure they would be treated. Upstairs of the small house, a couple of women were sewing quilts to be sent to the US. Each quilt is sold for $50. The shameful look on their faces when they first arrived was replaced by the joyful smile. As we walked out of the sewing room, one little girl about 3 years old was sitting by herself eating all day because her mom had to sew. No matter how we tried to catch her attention, she didn’t move or respond. Many of us probably felt uneasy looking at a kid who had suffered so much at that age.

We came back to CLA, parted for lunch and continued to visit another organization in the afternoon called “The Cambodian Children’s Fund,” founded by Scott Neeson, someone I truly admire. Giving up all he has in Los Angeles, Scott moved to Phnom Penh to set up a boarding school for kids living in Steung Mean Chey, Phnom Penh’s garbage dump. He brought all the kids who never set foot outside of an 11 acre landfill to a facility that provides food, education, health care, clean beds and no fear of violence. 240 children are living in CCF’s facilities. We visited the classrooms where the kids were studying English. There is so much hope for them and they all hungrily grab this opportunity to get out of poverty. After seeing the facility, we went to the dumpster. The first time setting foot on the mountain of trash with armies of flies left an impact that can never be erased on all of us. Some of us were angry to see the living conditions that were beyond imagination of these 2000-3000 people. We all knew the dumpsite existed. We might have seen it on television but we had never been so close to it, let alone walking in it. We brought them some water and food, which did nothing much to ease their pains. There was even a small area where some people sold food. It looked like a mini food market in the countryside except that we were all standing on top of the trash, breathing in our lungs the air all these little kids had been growing up with. I was wordless. Living in a dumpsite, however, might not be my worst fear. Having no hope is. What Scott was doing at least gave these kids some hope.

We went to back to the hotel, showered and then went to dinner. No matter how long my shower was, the smell, the feeling of the afternoon could barely fade away. After dinner, we had a session for team members to reflect on the experience. We analysed the situation, and thought of solutions both at micro and macro level. What was important, however, was the emotion we had would remind and drive us to serve and to lead.

Now it’s 1:20 am and I am really sleepy so I guess I will have to close my lengthy entry by introducing myself. I am Dieu Huong (I go by Vina) from Hanoi, Vietnam. I am a rising senior at Smith College, Northampton, MA, USA and an economics major with international relations minor. I love traveling, playing sports, reading fiction and taking black and white photos. I love watching people so just now when I am typing this, I am looking at Will sitting next to me and Phuong falling asleep on the next chair. ☺

June 27: Keep Moving Forward

Hi everyone,

This is Aey (Chalida Nakornchai), a new graduate from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I majored in Chemical Engineering and had little experience in community service prior to this program.

After experiencing a few moving moments yesterday, we’re back to the usual routine again. We started off the day at 7am, walking over to Wat Phnom to do morning journaling, and circle exercise. The topic of the journal today was to focus on freshness and newness of the same road that we have walked for 9 days.

After the morning routine, we arrived to CLA to begin our evaluation session for the first concert. Phavine and Reaksmey reported the responses from audiences and performers and led the discussion among high school and CLA students to find ways to improve themselves for the next concert. Most of the audiences and performers were satisfied with the overall outcome of the event. A student audience asked to have more students involved in the performance next time. From the discussion, students came up with some problems and suggestions such as having a higher stage so audiences in the back could see clearly and explaining the meaning of the circle painting.

At 10:30am, students and mentors were split into 2 groups. The first group went to visit Sopheap Pich, a Cambodian sculptor who made art works out of bamboo and wires. The remaining of the team stayed at CLA for Will and Kevin’s workshop on public speaking. The workshop developed on the previous public speaking workshop and focused on preparing scripts for speeches.

At lunch, all the mentors went to a trendy Vietnamese restaurant near CLA where Vina ordered so many dishes for us. The afternoon was the time for concert preparation. I took students in my group out to Bak Touk high school to plan the decoration for the place. We had fun driving around to find a helium balloon seller to come help us decorate the venue, and on our way, got to buy crickets and coconut juice. J At the wrapping up session, everyone seemed to be tired but prepared.

Dinner was quite a treat as we got invited by some important government people to a fancy dinner. The seafood feast and luxurious location took us by a pleasant surprise. We left the restaurant recharged, albeit too well-fed, though I believe none of us complained.

We closed up the night with a workshop which turned into a profound discussion about our future and goal of life. Everyone was asked to share what we think we want to achieve in life and whether we know a way to do so. The night became more memorable once we were randomly paired up to say appreciation to each other. While listening to these acknowledgements, I developed a different vision of each team member and felt that our connection was strengthened by it.

We started off the day with the exhaust that still lingered after the first concert. I felt the energy level of the group was not back to normal level yet. We struggled through the morning with some mentors taking naps during the workshop. In the afternoon, I was a bit more energized by my lively mentees who never seemed to be tired. Finally, the discussion at night took me off from tiredness and made me start thinking more about my future and the reason I joined the project. It was a perfect closure of the night which brought a sense of both curiosity and serenity.

June 24: Master Class

Hi, I’m Kathleen, sophomore-to-be at Stanford with a wide range of interest and therefore with no particular major as of today.

Today was really a special day. We visited the CLA students at their classes, observing the things they did and participating in their activities. When we arrived at CLA, we did stretching exercises to make our bodies flexible, and I realized I have no flexibility to speak of. The students easily bent and twisted their body into beautiful curves and positions, which looked easy but is almost impossible to do for the untrained. After the series of stretching exercises, the teacher informed us that classical dance had over 4,500 gestures, each with a different meaning. However, we will be learning the much easier folk dance, with only 12 different gestures. Sounds easy, but it’s easier said than done. Much hand, feet, eye, and whole body coordination was needed to put all the difference components together, and every part of the body has to be positioned correctly. The result was a dance both beautiful and complex, intricate and expressive. Many different animals were represented in the dance moves, including ox, snake, and monkey. The dance was full of subtlety and delicacy but not lacking in vitality and life. The CLA students helped us and the high school students, demonstrating the correct positions and correcting our mistakes. They were very patient and dealt kindly with our clumsiness. At the end of the lesson, everyone – high school students, CLA students, and Sealnet members – danced and laughed together, singing the Happy Song J

After the lesson, a brief discussion took place and the team members and students expressed their feelings about the dance lesson. People with no previous exposure to Cambodian art found it amazing, beautiful, and inspiring, to mention a few things. Others saw the dance as a source of pride and something to be appreciated. After the discussion, Aey directed the arts productions workshop, which was presented in the form of a game in which the students played the role of producers to direct a music video. They had to learn to put together different components in the production process (cast, logistics, technical) and overcome unforeseen difficulties.

After lunch, everyone went to his or her concert group to begin final preparation for the concert tomorrow. There was some chaos and confusion, especially regarding the circle painting and the method to best hang the painting as a backdrop during the concert. I was gone most of the time for the painting, but I still felt how everyone was willing and eager to help others. Some groups were done with their work, so they offered their services to groups that still had much to do. More than 10 people were helping to make posters for publicity and directing people to the concert. Students and mentors collaborated with each other across groups to make the concert happen.

Dinner was the not usual visit to a restaurant. Instead, we went to Muse Café to meet the CLA staff. The café was elegantly arranged, with comfy sofas and cool visualizers projecting on the screen. Memorable quote: Rith walking up to the second floor lounge, stopping when he entered the room and exclaiming, “Oo, this is sexy.” After eating food, the staff and members formed a circle, briefly introduced ourselves, and described something we learned from a CLA student. We then watched 2 short video clips, one about Sbaek Thom, the Cambodian large shadow puppets, and the other about an annual traditional arts festival hosted by CLA. One of the highlights of the videos was narration by Trent Walker and a brief appearance of the fore-mentioned personage.

Returning to the hotel, the members met in the suite room (109) to go over the master schedule and make sure all the members understand the tasks for the coming day and what will be happening in all the commotion. There was no Spotlight, simply to give everyone more time to accomplish needed tasks in anticipation of the coming day.

Much happened today, the last day to prepare for the first concert, to pull all the elements together and make sure everything will run smoothly in the morrow. But I found the morning visit to the CLA lessons most moving and inspiring. The students were so patient and caring, and they smiled at our mistakes and helped us correct them. They are talented and also humble, and though they possess amazing skills, they do not show off unless asked to. The CLA students remind us that there is something remarkable about everyone, and there is something to learn from every person we meet. There are always things beneath the surface, and if we just take the time and opportunity to search beneath the outer layer, we will discover something valuable and inspiring.

June 23: Cambodia Continues

Hi everyone!

I’m Sokthearin Than, but you can just call me Thearin. I’m a Cambodian; I was born and raised most of my life, except for last year when I was doing my undergraduate studies as a freshman at Grinnell College in Iowa. And please don’t ask me why I end up going to school in the middle of nowhere, aka cornfield because it really is a long story behind this. I don’t really have any specific major in mind yet, but i might major in economics or physics; or I might also double major in both of them.

Most people that I know don’t think that I look Cambodian, since I look a bit light, comparing to other Cambodians. I’m pretty much a pure Cambodian; well maybe one third, since my dad is pure Cambodian and my mom is sort of like a quarter Chinese. So that would make me somehow a Chinese Cambodian, I guess. I have two sisters, one younger and one older (I’m the only son!) We all get along with each other really well.

Time flies by really fast; this is the 5^th day of the project already, but I still remember going to pick up everyone from the airport, which was a really fun thing to do because I get to see team members before others could. So as usual, we went to Wat Phnom to have our morning exercises, with Kevin teaching us some tai chi, along with teambuilding exercises, which always get people’s attentions. The morning exercises really help wake everyone up from their insufficient sleeps, and also help us getting to know each other better. After that it was time for breakfast at a restaurant, close to the hotel. Everyone will get to try every dish there, since that will always be the place to have breakfast, since we’re getting free coupons from the hotel.

At 9:00, we headed over to CLA to continue mentoring Bak Touk, Sisowath and CLA students. We had two workshops – a public speaking workshop and a Cambodian media workshop. The students just keep improving, especially the CLA students. Even though the CLA students differ from the high school students in economic and knowledge background, they have become really open; unlike the first few days, when they were still shy to speak out their ideas. Now SEALNet has proved that within a short period of time, we can a difference on the students, and that is really impressive.

It was about 12:00pm, and it was time for lunch. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to join our sealneters because I had to go home and have lunch with my parents. They wanted me to also have more time with them, since I’ve been away from home for the first time for almost a year. So basically I missed the whole lunch with my fellow team members.

After lunch with my family, I went to have the Sealnet T-shirts made for the concerts, but again unfortunately, the T-shirts printing guy said he wasn’t able to do the printing on time. It was a bit late, and there were 70 T-shirts to be printed on. But it’s okay because we can get all the T-shirts done before the second concert and we’ll get to use our awesome Sealnet T-shirts.

2pm, time for all of us to do the first concert preparation. Everyone was assigned different responsibilities. I and Kathleen, along with our mentees, Neary and Muy Ngach, were responsible for setting up the 5 computers at Sisowath high school. Since we already have the computers set up already, we just had to make sure whether or not we needed anything else, such as electric cords, computer desks, and the computer room. We came back to CLA at 5:10, and we had a short evaluation session before heading off to dinner.

7:35pm, arrived at Sorya Restaurant, where we had dinner. It is a nice restaurant with decent food. We ordered 5 dishes for 2 tables, and we only had to pay 43.50 dollars, plus free desserts. We got back to the hotel at around 8:40pm. We watched a short documentary, called “The flute player,” but the DVD wasn’t working well, so we only got to see the first 20 minutes of the whole story. We had a long evaluation session. We were talking more about the concert preparation, with Kelvin and Traslin giving suggestions.

That was pretty much what we did today. Good Night !!

June 21: As the Heat Cools Down

Hi everyone,

Today’s Phnom Penh correspondent is Phuong- a rising junior at Amherst College, MA. It is about midnight in this part of the world and yet none of our members is in bed yet, we apologise for this bad behaviour.

Phnom Penh cools down today, but for our project, things are just heating up- in a good way. The Circle Painting Project has reached a new stage, with the Cambodian mentees playing a crucial role and stepping up for their ownership. Slowly but creatively, our group and our mentees fill up the main areas in the canvas. Along the way we learn to work together and acquire a sense of collaboration which is more refreshing than the cool morning air.

Some of our mentees acquire other things- a greater feeling of confidence, amazing non-verbal channels of communication, among other things. The workshop on marketing goes extremely well, with the students being divided into sub-groups and given the task of making a poster for their concert. Small groups allow smoother communication and better yet, an understanding among the students that they actually own the project.

In the afternoon, we start our sessions on concert preparation. Again, our mentees do not fail to surprise us. We had our doubts and concerns on various notes- from their lack of confidence, contrasting cultural approaches, linguistic barriers to the existing social divisions underlying the students’ level of acceptance and responses. As the day ends, which is now, it seems to me that many of those concerns are still there, but we are much more positive about the result of our work, seeing so much progress being made in just one day.

Leng leaves us for the Singapore, which is an event of mixed emotions. It is always sad to part with such a great friend, though we will never part with the inspirations that he generates by virtue of being himself. Trent and Kevin give an outrageously funny and moving send-off duet, which balances our emotions a little but Leng, we will see you again someday!!!

Dinner is spent at the foot court of Phnom Penh’s first mall. Figuring out what food to get when you have two hundred delicious choices is a big big puzzle and also a fun exercise. The desserts- fruity and fresh- make our day even brighter. I have a shaky relationship with my bubble tea, having consumed a full portion of vietnamese sweet soup (che`) and fruit shake. The relationship does not end as happily as Will would like, for he keeps bringing it up, but hey, I am happy!!!

A couple of things I learn today

• Step back
• A Khmer dance
• “Saat”, “Chlaat”, and “Pleu”, which mean pretty, smart, and silly
• Visna is really really smart
• Parting is such sweet sorrow
• Say “Wow” and feel like it too

June 20: The Project Begins!

Today was the first day with the Bak Touk and Sisowath high school students and the CLA students – our mentees! They range in age (~15-20), in English language capabilities, and in backgrounds.

As a group, we generally want to be helpful and effective in teaching the students skills necessary for event production and leadership, and can be directly applicable to our concert planning. … and look cool to the high school kids. 🙂 We found that these students are so vibrant and excited, and so happy to talk with us. However, some of the CLA students were less comfortable and confidant, mostly because of the economic and language differences between the other high school students and us.

Also, I think that we’re engaging all of the students in something in which they have no experience with these warm up and ice breaking exercises. haha. Not to mention these “workshops.” Try explaining the concept of workshops, logistics, and sustainability in a language that doesn’t have these concepts in one convenient word.

After our own morning circle and later some fun Kevin-type activities that made us step out of our shells and broke the ice to set the stage for teamwork. We then informed the mentees about the schedule for the two concerts and afterward our mentees discussed their expectations and ground rules for the project.

Some of us performed in our team talent show to share with the students different art forms of various cultures. Alex danced the Peacock Dance, which originated from China. Aey danced the Thai Blessing Dance. Will performed a monologue from Waiting for Godot. Kevin sang “Corner of the Sky” from Pippin. Trent sang a Khmer folk song. Jean Louise sang a Filipino song about a boy serenading a girl. Each of these performances were brilliant and all of us, mentors and mentees alike, really enjoyed them.

Breaking for lunch, we ate at Boat Noodle restaurant, owned by Seihout’s family member. Food was fantastic, and there we began playing games that we determined smart people found difficult because they overthink it. hmmm….

Hiep and Hung continued the circle painting project (we painted the background yesterday). Small groups of both mentors and mentees started the first circle. This project is intended to demonstrate teamwork and interconnectedness, and is just really fun. Check it out here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=PeCDBsmH-R0

Kathleen and I presented the first workshop on event planning with Thearin and Leang translating. Although we prepared extensively, things did not go as well as planned. Alex and Will led the (more fun) journaling workshop afterward, introducing ways ways in which a person can reflect in a journal, such as “found object”and “stream of conscience.”

At dinner (and in car rides), some of us had different conversations with “the professionals” Leng, Hiep, Hung, Peter, and John as well as got to know each other better. Along with nightly spotlight sessions, I think we’ll continue to grow closer and have more fun. If anything, we’ll have accomplished close trans age, racial, and national friendships.

June 19: The Full Team is Here

Hello folks,

This is Will Cirocco, and I’m your friendly guide for today’s blog. It’s currently 10 past midnight, Cambodian time, and suffice to say I’m rather exhausted, and don’t quite have a sense of space or time right now. Nevertheless, I shall press on!

Anyway, a bit about me. I live in San Francisco, CA, and heard about this program through Trent Walker and Kevin Fugaro, two friends I went to high school with, who are also on Project Cambodia, and whom you will be hearing from in the future. Both very upstanding individuals. I’m a rising Sophomore at Kenyon College, which is this tiny little school in The Middle of Nowhere, Ohio. A cookie for you if you’ve heard of it.

Well, here’s how our day panned out. I had gotten in on the 18th at 5:00 after about 30 hours of travel, and was rather jetlagged. I was kind of dissoriented when I woke up at 6:30ish. We got started quickly, though, taking a morning walk at 7:00 down to nearby Wat Phnom park. There, we spoke further about the particular goals of our project, specifically expounding upon our three word goal of Inspiring Arts Renaissance. We broadened this concept into five ‘bullet points,’ which included:

• Building and conducting the workshops we will be working with the Cambodian Living Arts Students and high school students. These are the more general, group workshops, that we’re designing to give all of the students skills that can help them take leadership positions in the future. I’m personally working with Kevin on the Public Speaking worskshop, and also Alex Nguy on the Journaling workshop.
• Building and conducting the more intimate sessions with one CLA student and one high schooler. These sessions are aimed specifically at organizing the concerts on the 25th and 27th, which the students will be running at the two different high schools to promote Cambodian performance arts.
• Next is the blogging, which you are currently reading. Hopefully it won’t be too dull, and will give you a good idea of who we are, and what we are accomplishing.
• Next is sharing with the group, and involves creating personal bonds with everyone, learning from each other, and operating in an effective and family-like manner, with as little of the associated dysfunction as possible.
• Finally we addressed the idea of sharing with the world, which represents the broader goal of our project to relate to the world in a meaningful manner. This one is one that I think particularly much about, as one of my broad, vague goals in the project, and life in general, really, is to create something meaningful.

After that Kevin led us in several group bonding exercises. They’re a series of mostly physical things that involve building your own personal energy, and connecting with the group. A good example, and one of my favorites, is a passing of a clap, in which we litterally pass a clap (not the disease, mind you) to our fellow team members around a circle with as much energy as possible, accompanied by that person’s name.

After the park, we walked back and ate breakfast, an experience I barely recall. By this point, all of us had arrived except Vina. After stopping back at the hotel, we finally paid our first visit to the Cambodian Living Arts building. We climbed several flights of stairs to the top of a building set a bit back off of the road, to a large, well-lit room, with a large post in the center. After several more team building exercises, we began on our circle painting project. In the interest of space, I’ll leave elaborating on this to someone later, but this project, led by one of our mentors, and an incredible artist and human being, Hiep Nguyen, is part of the larger SEALnet project, and will hopefully be a part of the upcoming ASEAN conference.

After that, we had lunch, where our final team member, Vina met up with us. We returned to CLA, and did several more team building exercises, and further discussed the goals and logistics of the project. It was a long day, but I think we’re starting to pull everything together. We’ll see how everything holds up when the students arrive tommorrow, though.

Afterwards we had dinner, then returned to the hotel, where Hiep elaborated upon the circle painting exersise. It’s very exciting, and hopefully we can deliver a great product. If you’re interested to learn more about the idea, here’s a video of Hiep in action.

The rest of the night wrapped up with us scrambling to get last minute logistics together, with a brief session where Thearin and Yours Truly were subjected to a rather personal Q&A from our team members. Which brings me to where I am now; now 12:45, I am exhausted, and not quite sure who I am anymore. I still have some scheduling and memorizing for the talent show tomorrow. Hah.

Briefly, though, I wanted to comment on Phnom Penh, and what it’s been like. One thing that strikes me is how extraordinarily busy the streets were. People are everywhere, with motorbikes darting about chaotically. And yet, there’s a sense of ease I’m not really used to. People sit on sidewalks, talking or doing nothing, which you never see in the states. Combined with the openess of the buildings, it’s as though the character of the entire city is lying right out in front of you like a cat in the sun.

My team members are fantastic, our mentors are extraordinary, and I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing here, especially once the students arrive. It should be fantastic. I’m really excited.

Before I go, I’d like to make a personal plug for my own blog, which I’ll try and update every day while I’m here, at Hysterical Realism. It will be more of a personal reflection.

I’m exhausted, so please forgive me not uploading any photographs. I’ll also try and do some fun formatting, if I have time. Those will come, I promise. Goodnight.

peace,
-W

June 18: The Adventure Begins

Hi! Yesterday marked the first official day of SEALnet Project Cambodia 2007. My morning was a mixture of anticipation and butterflies as I awaited the arrival of old and new friends at the airport. Team members arrived by planes, cars, and touk touks to Phnom Phen at various times of the day. Team members zipped back and forth welcoming team members. After settling into CARA, our home for the next 2 weeks, we took a walk through our neighborhood and headed to nearby Wat Phnom. Even though this is my first time to Cambodia, the people and smells feel familiar. I often wonder what the locals think of us. The messiness of the city life is thrilling and also a good source of energy.

In the middle of the park’s cobblestone path, surrounded by green trees, locals and the humidity, we recieved a brief project description and began some team building excercises (among other activities, we described ourselves as fruit. I’m sugar cane, if it qualifies as a fruit). A little about myself: I’m Alex, short for Alexandra. I’ll be working on daily journaling excercises for the group, the marketing workshop, as well as assiting with the publicity in concert planning. I’m a rising junior at USC in Los Angeles double majoring in Fine Art and Communication. I’m inspired by my family, kindness and quirks. I was born and raised in San Francisco and my family hails from Vietnam. I enjoy drawing, gardens, dancing (ballet and more recently traditional Chinese dance). I’ve been invested in the arts since I was young and and am excited to work with and learn from our peers from Cambodia who share this love.

I’m grateful to be among such a talented group of people in this city. I look forward to our time together and further realize our vision together. It feels good to be part of an ensemble. We ended our first night together with dinner at the nextdoor restraunt complete with karaoke entertainment before heading home to catch up on much needed sleep. Having spent the past 3 days in Siem Reap, I didn’t struggle with jet lag, but made the mistake of staying up late. I have to keep reminding myself how little time we have. Our schedule is packed and we have an early morning tomorrow. I look forward to meeting the students tomorrow and seeing the Team members perform. Goodnight Cambodia!

Cheers,
Alex
