My name is Biljana Ubovic. I was born in Backa Palanka. I had finished my primary school in Mladenovo, and high school in Ilok (Croatia). I attended college in Novi Sad at the Faculty of agriculture, but pretty soon I decided to determine it, for I had too many obligations and interests taking my time away. At the beginning of 2001. I had a car accident on my way back from a New Year’s party. It was a very hard time for me, but at the end, I went out of that situation as a stronger and braviour woman, thanks to love and support of my parents and friends. I live in Novi Sad at the moment and since October 2008. I have been a member of table tennis club “SPIN”. I go to practice frequently, and since I am still a begginer, all my tendings and interests are directed on practicing. My advice to everyone is to become a member of a sports club or organization, as what one likes better, and make their lives more beautiful, better and purposefully.
