| On herself:
|
I have two brothers and one sister. One brother and one sister is studying at the new school with me. My oldest brother is already studying in secondary school. My parents are both farmers. Our house is about half a kilometer away.
|
| On the new building:
|
I am very happy for the chance to study in the new school. It’s different from the old one. There, we’d be bothered by the hot sun or the rain, which made it difficult to study. Here, we are very comfortable.
|
| Favorite subject:
|
My favorite subject is Khmer. It’s easy for me to read and remember what was written.
|
| On her summer vacation:
|
I am going to help my parents with their farming.
|
| If she could wish for anything:
|
I would want to work as a person who prepares weddings.
|
| If she could travel anywhere
|
I would go to Kampong Som [Sihanoukville] because I’ve never been there. I want to bathe in the sea.
