My talk will be about how Chinese traditional music connects to Chinese traditional medicinal practices and how it tethered me to my own culture. I am a high school junior in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program at TIS. Currently, I'm working on my Extended Essay about the role of music in promoting liberty and equality during the French Revolution, with a passion for the intersection of history and culture. Outside of school, I have been learning the Chinese bamboo flute since 2017, and have placed in many international competitions. Central to my Tedx talk, i'm also involved in a collaborative project between the Macau Chinese Youth Orchestra and the Tung Sin Tong that promotes the relations between Chinese traditional music and medicine. In the future, I hope to pursue studies in environmental science and public policy, aiming to foster cultural diplomacy and harmony between humanity and nature.

What I'll be talking about is a sports injury and how I found a new self within that experience. Hi, my name is Silvia Shi and I am a student here at TIS. I am in High School U20 Girls Basketball, Model UN, Yearbook Club, Kumon math and Mandarin, and TedX Youth Club. I was valedictorian for my class in grade 6, MVP for my basketball team 2 years ago, and a full year honour roll student last year. I like any adrenaline enticing activities. I like going to new places, and trying new things. In the future, I plan on focusing more on my studies to improve my grades to achieve my dream jobs which is either to be a pilot or become a vet. I would say I am a pretty hyper person but sometimes, I could also be quiet. That pretty much sums up the kind of person I am.
