I'm soo glad that you replied back .
I am also on Instagram but I don't usually visit my account.I love Tik Tok soo much because it is a pool of fun and comedy.
I will be home for two months only.There has been a nationwide strike conducted and organised by lecturers all over the country ,so many students are not able to access classes.The lecturers aren't willing to go back for teaching unless the government pays them a debt of 7.9 billion which the government promised them and never paid them and now they are demanding it .There has been a Cholera outbreak in some parts of the country which has fataly killed about 45 citizens and others are still in hospitals getting treatment.
I'm very happy to have a good friend like you who always checks on me from abroad.
When you go to any school around your place greet all the students and tell them I love them soo much .Maybe one day I'll be teaching in USA and meet some of them.
I also send warm greetings to your family through you.Greet your brother and tell him I'm also a teacher and love doing some math.

I would also like to teach you a Swahili greeting called "Jambo" - you can use it in the place of hello.Hope you will get to know it soon.
I will be very happy to see you physically one day in my life .
Regards ,
Emma.

MY JOURNEY IN ARCHITECTURE

Hello Friends 👋 ,

I often say that architecture chose me long before I admitted it. As a child, I had dreamed fiercely of medicine-wearing the white coat, saving lives, and carrying the noble responsibility of healing. That dream guided me for years, and to the outside world, it remained intact. But in truth, something shifted in me while I was in Form 2.

It was then that I first encountered design not just as drawing or art, but as a language of possibility. I began to notice buildings, spaces, and the way people interacted with them. I realized that just as medicine heals the body, architecture can heal the mind and spirit. This realization struck me powerfully, but quietly-I never told anyone. Outwardly, I was still the boy who wanted to be a doctor. Inwardly, however, I had already begun to dream of becoming an architect.

Entering University

When I finally joined university, I carried this secret passion with me, and stepping into the world of architecture felt like setting down a burden I had carried in silence for years. For the first time, I could openly pursue what I had always felt deep inside.

The studios, the sketches, the models-all of it awakened me. Architecture was no longer an abstract dream; it was a living journey. I was learning to think with both discipline and imagination, to see the built environment as something alive.

Discovering Myself in Design

Each semester shaped me in new ways. From the struggle of my first design projects to the pride of creating models that captured ideas, I began to grow not only as a student but as a person. I realized that design was not about drawing pretty buildings—it was about problem-solving, empathy, and vision. My passion grew fierce, sharper than my childhood desire for medicine, because it was authentic to who I had become.

Challenges Along the Way

There were moments of doubt, long nights in studio, and critiques that stung. But architecture taught me resilience. It demanded patience, sacrifice, and humility. Slowly, I came to see these struggles not as obstacles, but as the very process of becoming.

My Calling

Looking back, I no longer regret letting go of medicine. That dream belonged to a younger version of me, but what stayed constant was the desire to serve humanity. Today, I wear no white coat, but I carry sketches, plans, and models that breathe life into spaces. Architecture has become my way of healing—healing communities through design, creating spaces that inspire, protect, and endure.

This is not just a career path; it is my calling. From the quiet moment in Form 2 when I first dared to dream differently, to the long hours in university studios, I have been on a journey of self-discovery, passion, and purpose. And this journey continues—fierce, relentless, and full of possibility.

Thank you,

Hello Donors,
I am doing well and I hope that you are doing well too. Academic life at school was nice and generally, life at school was really nice. We have covered the last half of the term and it was nice. On the closing day, the school held the annual prize giving day for the awarding of the last year`s KCSE candidates who had performed very well in their exam.
In the beginning of this August holiday, we went for a Geography trip to the Rift valley. We had great fun during the trip and we really learned a lot. The activities that we did during the trip were really fun though some of them such as hiking on mountains were tiresome. That was the best trip that I have ever had and I will really long for it.
Right now, summer has began and the cold season of July is over. We closed school on 31st July and we will be going back to school on 26th August.
Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to you for your continued support of contributing towards my school fees payment. May the Almighty shower His blessings upon you. Goodbye!

Hello Sharon,
Its my great pleasure to write back to you. I am doing well and I hope that you are doing well too. We are now back home for the August holiday. The last half of the term was nice and generally,life at school was nice. I did not participate in the STEM competitions or the drama club because I am not a member of the of the two but of the Wildlife club. The book that you are reading seems to be really interesting. I also like reading books for pleasure so as to avoid getting bored.
I promise that I will be borrowing a book from the Kenya Connect library and read it every day during this holiday.
The career fair was scheduled to happen today at Kenya connect and so far we have learnt about the different careers, the subjects needed for the different careers and that your destiny is not determined by your background. I am really inspired by the speakers and I am grateful to Kenya Connect for organising this.
Goodbye and take care too!

Hello donors,

I am back from school for a holiday of 3 weeks after terminating the second term of 2025 school calendar.
I am quite grateful for your endured support all through my high school journey. Since the beginning of this year you have supported me and I`m really thankful for that.
The second term was a success to our school. We took part in different activities both in curricular and co-curricular and the results of both performances were good. In games we competed to the Regionals in both soccer and basketball and we are grateful for that. In studies I am really trying my best to improve since it is my main hope in the future. Currently am trying my best in preparation for the national examination in November come this year.
I really appreciate your continued support for all through this year. May our Great and Mighty God bless you abundantly.
May you have the best of this summer holiday.
Goodbye

Hello donors,
How are you doing? I hope you are doing well and that is my great pleasure. On my side I am academically doing well and also personally good.

I am hereby writing to inform you that we have just closed the school for about three weeks and resume on 26th August, 2025. I am proud to inform you that this is my last holiday in secondary school and I am really utilising it well to be of benefit in my academics.

I am visiting The Kenya Connect Library to get revision materials from there. I am also working hard as I look forward to my Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (K.C.S.E) exam which will enable me to proceed to the next level of education.

May Almighty God bless you all for the support of school fees that that you give towards my education.

Hello Wayne,
How are you doing there? I hope you are doing well and thus my pleasure. It is good to hear that you like visiting library as I do and thus really great.

Thanks for the good wishes and I promise that I will do my best .

Bye.

Hi donors, I hope you are fine and on my side I am fine.I take this opportunity to thank you for your support that you have offered to me. This has made me to read with no worries of being sent home for school fees.This is also helping me improve my grades.We have been given a holiday of three weeks and I will be helping my
parents at home.
I am happy because during this holiday, i will have enough time to stay with my siblings and my parents and i also attend library and continue revising so as to improve my performance.
Pass my greetings to your families and have a nice time. May you be blessed beyond boundaries.
Good bye!

Hello Henry,
How are you doing there? Thank you for reaching out. It is true that in my country we no longer use the plastic bags.

Through organic chemistry, we learn that plastic bags are made from polyethylene, a process known as polymerisation. We know that plastic bags are non-biodegradable thus causing pollution to the environment.

This pollution to the surrounding has a lot of effects to the living things. Plastic waste was allover and that is why Our government went ahead and banned the use of plastic bags in Kenya. Through this, our country now looks clean and conducive for someone to live.

Thanks Henry for the good comments about my country and you are most welcomed to Kenya to come and enjoy the conducive environment.

Bye
