My name is Tiffany Lam. I have a rather special nickname – Pocket Money. The Putonghua pronounciation of my Chinese name, Lin Yong Qing, sounds like the Cantonese pronounciation of pocket money. So that was how my nickname was generated.
My appearance is not really outstanding, however, I do have an extraordinary feature. I have two different eyes. One double-lined and the other single-lined. I have short hair and my body shape and height are both standard.
If you know me, you will know that I am very talkative. Although sometimes I will blurt out something mean, I can still talk to a friend for hours without really stopping or making him or her angry. I have another personality that I think only my primary classmates know. I am very positive. Nothing seems to sadden me. My mother used to call me “Sunshine Girl”. This means that I am a very bright girl.
I have a few hobbies and favourites. I like playing the piano very much. I like its beautiful music and smooth melody. I also like reading country books because I like travelling. Although I can’t travel to every place in this world, I can still know about most countries by reading. My favorite colour is yellow. I don’t know if it’smy bright personality, but I do brighten up after seeing this colour.
I have a great family. They are my father, mother and younger brother. My brother and I like my father best because he never forces us to study. He won’t even tell us to study. He would just wait for our results and would scold us if we got poor marks because of laziness. However, when I fail, he will not scold me, but support me instead because he knows what it’s like to face failure.
I have a very good friend. She was my best friend in primary school and we are still good friends now. Her name is Michelle Chan and she is in class 1D. We met each other in Primary Six. We have the same hobby – eating!
My dream is to be a lawyer. Being a lawyer requires good language skills and high education. I want to be a lawyer because I think most lawyers have the sense of justice. If there was no lawyer, there would not be law courts, if there were no law courts, Hong Kong would be a very unfair city, and people would live miserably because they could not claim their rights. Lawyers are very important to the society.
After reading my self-introduction, I hope you know more about me. I am the special, unique,different and extraordinary me.
