Hello everyone. I am Yasuda from the Cambodia Bicycle Project.

A letter from scholarship recipient Linna-chan

I received a letter from scholarship recipient Linna-chan, which I post irregularly.

※Click here for an article with more details about Linna-chan. (I am sorry that I wrote this article in Japanese.)

I received this chart with her explanation.

“Teacher, how are you all? The first semester of my third year is over. I’ll finish in one semester.

Below are my exam results. My name is on line 12.”

Number 12 is Linna-chan. She only got one “B+,” and the rest were all As. Two students got all As, so she’s third in a class of 29! It looks like she’s studying hard.

The exam subjects.

Gender Integration in the Health Sector
Community Health Nursing
Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing
Fundamental Health Education
Gerontological and Palliative Care
Emergency Nursing and First Aid
Pediatric Nursing I & II
Pediatric Nursing III
Overview of Primary Health Care
Home Health Nursing
Emergency Nursing and First Aid Practice

Message from Her

I replied immediately.

Yasuda: “Good evening. Your exam results were amazing! I’m so glad you studied so hard. I look forward to seeing you in December. I first met you exactly 10 years ago, in 2015. You’ve grown and continued to pursue your dream of becoming a nurse. It’s almost here! I’m so happy to be able to support you in making that dream a reality.”

Linna: “I was so lucky to have met Dr. Lork Kru that year, and I’m so grateful for all your continued support. I’ll study harder than ever to make my dream come true. Thank you so much for supporting me in making my dream a reality. However, this year there have been more curriculum changes than ever before, and the workload to manage is enormous. Furthermore, the school’s operations aren’t running smoothly or efficiently, which has made it tough. 😔”

She had many challenges, but I hope you’ll work hard over the next six months, graduate, and pass your final nursing exam.
