    The happiest time in my life is my birthday. I normally celebrate by meeting and talking with friends. Also when I passed the Standard Seven national examination, I was very happy. This is because I want to go to secondary school. I know that without education I cannot get a good life. My family faces financial crises at home because they cultivate little crops and do not earn much. They do not have enough to buy my school requirements. My dream is to become a doctor and take care of people with illness. Through hard work I can do it.

    My life has been difficult because my family is economically poor and have no good jobs. My parents depend on peasant farming. Through it they raise only a small crops which is not enough for the children to get basic needs. When I was in Ordinary level, I was frequently sent home because the school fees were not paid. Through the assistance of my neighbors, I reached the end of my Form four and passed the examinations. For myself, I believe that in order to get good life, it's better first to get education. My dream is to be a lawyer. In order to complete my dream I will need to attend school and acquire a degree. After that I would like to have a higher standard of living. Also I would like to open special school in order to educate students who are coming from poor families. My second plan is to help women in the community by providing to them education concerning life.

    The challenge in my academic life is that I have no books, bags, and other learning materials. I need them at school. My ambition is to be president. Many people in the country need help like The School Fund's help to get a better education. I want to help other people who suffer in my country. I want to be president because I like to solve people's problems. I feel happy when I perform well in my exams. When I was in primary school, people told me that secondary school subjects are very hard. My parent told me that when you study hard, there is no hard subject.

The happiest moment in my life is the way when I passed my examination. I felt very proud of myself because my family was happy for me. The difficult experience for me in my life when my young sister was burned with hot water and then my mom do not know how to care for her. I learned that the life is hard. For the next four years I will study hard because I want to reach my dream.

    I plan to grow up to be a Doctor, because I have seen many people have health problem. My happiest moment is when I was chosen to enter Form-1 after I completed primary level school. Not every child can enter Form-1, it is a privilege. I am so proud of myself. After I fulfill my Doctor dream, I will build a lot of hospitals. People can get medical services when they are sick. I plan to give back to the School Fund portion of my salary. Also I would like to join this organization to help other children to go to school and get educated.
