Student 2
For many years, life in Cambodia was not very good because people were always mad about their job and worried about money for their family, but we also have good things. People in Cambodia usually wake up at 4:00 am because they need to prepare for their job or some people, like grandmothers and grandfathers wake up to do their exercise. At 6:00 am, people go to work or take their kids to school. In this country, we have 2 languages: English and Khmer. When the holiday comes people usually go to Kompongsom to meet their cousins or for fun they go to see famous singers and people also go to Angkor Wat temple at Siem Reap. For me, at my holiday I want to go to Kompongsom because my 2 brothers live there. They have fun stuff like balls, videogames, PSP, and more. And also Kompongson is a good place because there we have beaches for people to sit and eat or swim and play. At the hotels they have wifi Internet to watch video or read the news. A long time ago many people in Cambodia died because of HIV or because they had accidents. This was in 2009. My aunt and uncle love to go to Siem Reap. They want to see Angkor Wat Temple or take a picture there. Siem Reap is also a great place. There they have many kinds of animals for you to see or just eat, sit, play, take a nap there, or whatever you want. But it is not for free. Near the temple there are many kinds of things that are made by hand. In Phnom Penh the schools are not big and not small and the normal students don't study on Saturday. For me Cambodia is a better place.
