Huyen Thuong - 1st runner-up of The Face USSH contest
Talking about the reason for joining the contest, Huyen Thuong said: “I have known about The Face USSH since 2020. At that time, my friends also encouraged me to join the contest but I kept hesitating. Until this year, I decided to join the contest to experience many different colors in school activities. Another important thing is that I really love the theme of the contest:Shining Heart”.
Huyen Thuong won the title of Charity Ambassador
Coming to the contest, Thuong shared that she faced a lot of pressure. For her, the biggest pressure was to balance her time and complete her entry within the time limit set by the Organizing Committee. Because in addition to participating in the contest, she had to maintain her studies, work part-time, etc. Most of the entries were her own ideas and sometimes needed help from acquaintances.
Sharing about her journey participating in The Face USSH, Thuong said that the most impressive part for her was the Charity Ambassador round. “After a long and laborious preparation process, I received feedback from the students that my sharing was very meaningful. At that time, I was very happy. I felt like I was bringing positive and useful values to everyone.”
Huyen Thuong once had difficulty balancing personal work and participating in the contest.
Huyền Thương recounted the moment her name was called as the runner-up of the contest, which made her burst into emotion. She said she was quite shy compared to many other friends and the decision to join the contest changed her a lot. She said that candidates not only need to have a good appearance but also have to combine factors including intelligence - body - beauty and many other skills.
Huyen Thuong said the program created opportunities for her to learn from others and improve herself.
Commenting on her victory, Huyen Thuong believes that she has strived beyond her own inherent ability. “I think the factors that created my success are encapsulated in 3 things: perseverance, companionship and effort. That is the spirit of determination to never give up, the companionship of everyone and most importantly, my own constant effort.”
