On herself:
|
I have two brothers and both of them study together with me here. I am older than both of them, though. Our parents are both farmers. We live two kilometers away from school, but I get to school every day by motorbike.
|
On the new building:
|
I feel like studying at the new school. I feel glad and happy when I’m there. The old school had a tin roof, and when it rained it would disturb the class.
|
Favorite subject:
|
I like math the most, because I’m very interested in geometry.
|
On her spare time:
|
I always help my parents after school, cutting the grass, picking corn, and cooking rice.
|
If she could do anything:
|
I want to be a doctor, near the market. That way I can cure patients and earn money for myself and especially for my family.
|
If she could travel anywhere | I would go to Kep in Kampot province. That place has good air
