School Year 2012
I would like to tell you about my past and how when I would go to school I walked with my supplies in my hands or in plastic bags. I felt very happy when I was gifted something that I often worried about having because for my parents it was really hard to find money for my supplies. They were married in 2006 and are a couple very happy with their children. And presently, I'm so happy to be studying in this program. It's so nice to study and be able to move ahead and I feel very proud that my parents and the community are supporting our class so much. They have put forth a great effort so we can have a good future. I know that by studying I can help my family in the future.
