| On herself:
|
I have two sisters. I’m the youngest child in my family. My parents are both farmers. Our house is 200 meters away from here.
|
| On the new building:
|
I am very happy with the new school. I like it because I learn well there, and it’s a pretty building. The old school that I went to before only had a thatched roof and no walls. It was very difficult to study there whenever it rained, because the rain would disturb our classes.
|
| Favorite subject:
|
Math is my favorite, because doing calculations is easy.
|
| On her summer vacation:
|
I will help my parents farm; I’ll help them with the harvest first, and then help them plant rice.
|
| In the future:
|
I want to be a teacher because I want to teach.
|
| If she could make any wish:
|
I would wish for a new car. It would make it easier to go to work.
|
| If she could travel anywhere:
|
I would go to Phnom Penh and visit my relatives again.
