The vibrant atmosphere of the back-to-school season left unforgettable marks, where every moment turned into a memorable piece of the participants\u2019 journey. The activities truly became \u201cenergy charging stations,\u201d helping students not only recharge their spirit but also enrich their English skills. Let us board the train of memories and travel through a September full of vitality at the UEH English Zone!<\/em><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Recharge the inner energy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>September at UEH marked a new journey, welcoming the freshmen of&nbsp; K51 as they stepped into university life with excitement and anticipation. To kick off such a vibrant season, the English Zone introduced a series of themes as unique \u201cenergy stations\u201d designed especially for young students. Opening the journey was <strong><em>\u201cIgnorance is Bliss\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, a strong message about focusing on self-development and not letting meaningless gossip drain one\u2019s energy. Continuing that momentum came <strong><em>\u201cChoices\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, where participants shared about important crossroads in life while also listening to diverse and inspiring perspectives from their peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/4b3898c1-b607-413c-b280-96ef47c33d5f\" width=\"602\" height=\"324\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Participants played a short game before moving into the discussion topic \u201cIgnorance is Bliss.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding that pressure sometimes repeats like an endless cycle, making it difficult to break free, the topic <strong><em>\u201cVicious Cycle\u201d<\/em><\/strong> was chosen to create a space where participants could openly express themselves and discuss ways to escape those invisible loops of stress. They did not only join a conversation, but also received renewed energy to continue moving forward with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/1e86c71b-5130-4a61-84b8-647ab36f6a49\" width=\"602\" height=\"271\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Relaxed smiles while sharing about \u201cVicious Cycle.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the same spirit, the English Club (BELL) introduced the topic <strong>\u201c<\/strong><strong><em>City Quest\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, where students shared their experiences and stories in Saigon, recalling both amusing and challenging moments during their studies and daily life. Through these exchanges and new friendships, they were able to improve their English skills in a natural and engaging way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/5ed7b7d3-d3be-44f5-8add-ef845be1805b\" width=\"602\" height=\"368\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>The discussion with the English Club (BELL) on the topic \u201cCity Quest.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The sharing station with unique topics<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Life is a colorful picture, where each perspective paints a different shade. As a multidisciplinary university, UEH values this diversity and creates spaces where every student can express their own point of view. At <strong><em>Silver Screen: The Wild Robot<\/em><\/strong>, participants watched a short film and then engaged in an intriguing discussion: can a robot truly understand freedom? From there, the conversation touched on themes of love and personal identity. In <strong>\u201c<\/strong><strong><em>Lazy Boy\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, the journey of a lazy boy was depicted through mistakes and stumbles, yet filled with lessons about responsibility. The film set the stage for a lively atmosphere, where participants not only reflected on the character\u2019s story but also bravely shared their own experiences of growing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/6fed17b4-38d9-4a52-be1f-dfadfa581a5f\" width=\"602\" height=\"360\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>The engaging and meaningful \u201cSilver Screen\u201d film sessions can only be found at UEH English Zone.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In particular, <strong><em>\u201cThe Mirror World\u201d<\/em><\/strong> opened up an inverted and paradoxical universe \u2013 where the more money one has, the poorer they become, and the more they sleep, the higher their grades rise. These ironic situations not only brought novelty but also sparked cheerful laughter and lively debates among participants. Within that atmosphere, an underlying message was conveyed: sometimes, looking at things from an opposite perspective can help us release pressure and discover new meanings in our journey of study and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/d38c73b1-ed3d-48aa-8b13-2d1dadc7ef81\" width=\"602\" height=\"384\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Treasure the memorable moments after each discussion.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The station of connection through art and inspiration<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>Within each person lies a bustling marketplace of thoughts, yet also a quiet sky of art. In September, Faculty of Foreign Languages, together with UEH English Zone, brought special \u201cenergy stations\u201d where students could put aside their books for a while and open their hearts to their own creative worlds. In the theme <strong><em>\u201cArt is in the Eye of the Beholder\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, participants reflected on the diverse and distinctive beauty of art through their personal lenses. Continuing that spirit, <strong><em>\u201cMusical Bridges\u201d<\/em><\/strong> became a bridge connecting kindred souls, as students shared their musical interests and unexpectedly found those from the same \u201cfandom,\u201d sparking laughter, excitement, and the birth of new friendships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/23077a6f-9ba4-4d70-ab47-10bb50e26255\" width=\"602\" height=\"451\"><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/605f6b49-88b3-4ed4-ad6e-6f8662608c95\" width=\"602\" height=\"451\"><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/afe7685f-72c2-4c43-8395-a5175546511c\" width=\"602\" height=\"360\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Conversations and sharings with Ecoff\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, September also featured a unique<strong> DIY activity<\/strong>: each participant created their own flag, embedding personal imprints and the stories behind every piece.

And of course, <strong><em>\u201cHungry Monkey + Uno\u201d<\/em><\/strong> brought bursts of laughter, drawing everyone closer together. Altogether, these games created a fiery atmosphere where students not only \u201cburned\u201d with excitement in every match but also naturally practiced their language skills through each spirited round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/dsa.ueh.edu.vn\/b7914edf-a773-43d2-8fc8-7bcae98b881d\" width=\"602\" height=\"400\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Outstanding players beamed with joy as they received lovely souvenirs from English Zone.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those board game sessions were not merely for entertainment, but truly became mental energy stations for every participant.
