Dina 

I am Dina Ung and I'm 14 years old. This is my second year at NISC.

I was born in Cambodia and have been living in Cambodia since I was born. I speak 3 languages: English, Khmer and Chinese. Eventhough I am a Cambodian, I use Chinese the most and I am better at Chinese than Khmer and English. I speak chinese Teochew at home and have been learning Chinese for the past 10 years.

​

I like to listen to music and watch TV (dramas) especially korean dramas and korean songs (KPOP). My favourite sports are badminton and volleyball. I played badminton when I was 8,9 years old with my dad everyday that I love it so much, but I don't get to play badminton now, because there is no available space and I'm most of the time on my own. I also like playing volleyball, but I don't have any reason for that, maybe just because I'm a little bit better at volleyball than any other sport. My favourite color is purple, but I also like almost every color. 

​

I don't hate going to school, I don't hate studying and learning, but I don't really like the feeling of going to school on the first day. My favourite subjects at school are, Physical Education and Maths, My least favourite subjects are, Humanities and science. I like PE because i like sports and I like the feeling of getting all wet when I finished PE, i just feel proud. And I like Maths because I feel like I can exercise my brain and become smarter.

The most important thing in my life is my family, because without them, I wouldn't be able to type all these out. I am a lazy worm, and I know I should change but I just can't, because being lazy feels wonderful... Most of the people around me say I'm weird, even my family. My classmates think I'm weird because I don't really talk and only answer when people ask me questions. But, the truth is that I'm really talkative, only with people I trust and people I know very well.

​

One more special thing about me is that I get nervous and scared and shy so easily. For example: I will turn red from face to chest standing on stage or having people looking at me, I also turn red and hot when it's just answering questions in class ( some times just answering 'yes' or 'no' would make my face hot)

​

If I can have 3 wishes come true, i want:

- to be able to read people's mind.

- to change my face ( I don't really like my face, i don't like my eyes, my nose and my cheeks).

- have an interesting and romantic life like in most korean dramas.
