About

Samuel comes from a family of 6 children, who all stay with their guardians, who are very poor. Their guardians are the ones paying for Samuel and his siblings' school fees, but Samuel is uncertain that this will continue due to many hardships and struggles the family must undergo. At times, Samuel and his family must go to sleep hungry. Samuel is a polite student who takes education seriously and he hopes to achieve his dream of becoming a soldier.

Hi Samuel ~ I am thinking of you in lovely warm Kenya, as it is very cold here in England and trying to snow. I am praying for a successful year for you at School. Enjoy your final year. Best wishes ~ Richard
Hello Eileen and Hunter Robertson,
I am glad that you posted on my journal and helped raise my school fees,i really appreciate you kind deeds.
Eileen, i enjoy reading history books mostly because through them I am able to learn on the past and my roots plus where I came from.
Hunter,Biology is also fun in its way because you get to know more about the body and nature well though i am still working hard to understand this subject since it is challenging at times.
If you you can help me with any study tips I would be very happy.
Thanks,
Samuel
