This year was my first year of high school, thus letting me join clubs. There were various clubs that I could join, but the two clubs that caught my eye was Korean club and Photography club. This very special International Day performance was done within the Korean club. Korean club was well, as you can tell from it's name, we did anything to promote our proud country, Korea.

When I first heard that we had to perform, especially DANCE, I couldn't help but worry first. I knew I was terrible at dancing, and dancing was also my least favorite in all of the performing arts subjects. But we were the youngest, and had no choice.

During our practice sessions, learning one move after another was a hard challenge. Every move seemed so difficult and I had difficulties following most moves. All the moves we learnt were flashy and required flexibility, but I wasn't exactly the flexible type. I felt a bit relieved though, since most of my friends weren't good dancers either.

Collaboration and coordination with people I was dancing with was the hardest part. Moving all together at the same time was difficult since it required precise timing and tempo, along with moves like kicks having the same height of kicks and speed.

Overall, I enjoyed my experience. Experiences like those definitely made me desire to join the club again next year.

For school year 2018 to 2019, I chose Theatre class along with my friends for performing arts. We had practiced and sharpened different theatre skills, to reach our final goal - perform a class Shakespeare play, Macbeth.

We performed in the school's auditorium, where around hundred audiences watched us perform. My role was one of the three murderers hired by Macbeth to kill his best friend, Banquo, who noticed that Macbeth has climbed to his throne foully. I only played 3 different scenes out of 23, but I was the turning point of the story. I also helped in moving the risers to help deliver the scene.

The most challenging part was when me and Kendrick who played Banquo had to synchronize the murder scene. It would seem boring if I murdered Banquo without Banquo resisting when he was a general in the army. We practiced a simple struggling fight scene, and it delivered well.

Overall, I enjoyed performing for the theatre class with my friends. Ms.Emily, who was our teacher, left to NIST, a different school in Bangkok. This was our last play in Wells with Ms.Emily, and we wrapped it up well.

Volleyball has always been my favorite sport to play. But I personally always felt that my skills were lacking, especially spikes. After all, when I play volleyball, most of my job was to spike the ball.

I decided to come up with a practice drill that I can do just outside of my house. It was a simple drill where I toss the ball into the air, hit the ball, make sure the ball bounces off the floor then the wall, catch the ball again, and repeat.

When I first tried the drill, it was difficult to get the hang of it. I constantly missed my hits, or my hits weren't on the ball and the ball went flying too weak. So I practiced again and again on the weekdays, until I could do it almost consistently. I followed my daily 30 minutes practice schedule unless I really had to work on something else.

I learned how I can hit the ball better and accurately, with occasional help from MJ and Kendrick, both good friends of mine. They both taught me some tips I can use to get a better contact between my hand and the ball, which I can now apply whenever I get to play volleyball.
