    In my life, the difficult challenge was when my parents could not manage to let me go to school for 6 months. Then my parents started farming and hence got some money that supported my education. I learnt that patience pays when it is difficult. The moment that makes me proud is that I have been healthy until now and I am grateful. My dream is to become a dentist. In order to reach it, I study science subjects very hard for the purpose of achieving my dream. After fulfilling my dream, I will visit my community and the WEF family to thank them and provide things that I can.

    Experiences in my life are when I failed my examination during primary education and also when my parents failed to pay food for me. My difficult experiences in my life are when my parents have insufficient enough money to pay for all my basic needs at school such as food and other school contributions. The thing that makes me feel so proud of myself is when I succeeded in joining O-level education. This makes me feel that I will, I must, I can do everything. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life will be to reach my dream of being a doctor general so as I can help other people in society. My future dream is to be a GOOD surgical doctor. After me reaching my dream, I will give back help to my society and family, but also to WEF. I need to work hard upon reaching my dream in my life. Once I get chance to have power of changing anything in country, I will improve the education system by converting science subjects from theory to practical. In most of our schools, they teach science subjects mostly theoretically. I will start from there because as we know education is the key to every success in our people.

    I have experience planting vegetables because my parents do that. Also, we have a garden at our home. Therefore, that is experience I have had in life. Apart from that experience, I also had a difficult experience when I failed my geography exam. That enabled me to learn how to cooperate with other students. I was so proud of myself when I performed well in my national exam. The memorable and happiest moment in my life will be when I reach my dream of being pilot. I will be so happy. My biggest dream is to be a pilot. I will get there through studying hard in physics, geography, and mathematics. After reaching my dream, I will help my parents to modify their cultivation system and to become professional farmers. From there they can expand the area of cultivation into a large plantation. Once I get a chance to have the power to change my country, I will build many airports in each region and some districts. This will help in the flexibility of transportation in my country.

    Notable experiences in my life are, first, passing my standard seven examination and, second, entering secondary school. My most difficult experience was when I started to learn English. I have learned that if you want to do something, you have to work hard. I felt proud was when I entered secondary school. My most memorable and happiest thoughts are from when I celebrated at my birthday party. My dream is to be an electrical engineer. I will get there through studying hard and doing well in science subjects. If I had the power to change my country, I would like to improve the electricity supply especially in rural areas because there are shortages of electric power.

    The experience which I faced early in life was a misunderstanding among my uncles. This would be bad in any life. We need peace and good relations. My difficult experience was the trouble that I got into by taking my parents? property without their permission. I learnt that to borrow, first I should ask if I am allowed to take it. The moment that made me proud was when I joined form one in secondary school. Not all students can be selected to join the ordinary level due to a lot of challenges. The memorable and happiest moment in my life was the tour to Ngorongoro conservation area where I saw the crater and animals like monkeys, giraffes, hyenas, lions, and elephants. My dream is to become a pharmacist. The best way to approach it is to read different books so that I can fulfill my entire dream, together with studying biology, chemistry, and physics. After the achieving of my dream, I will build medical shops to give medical attention to my community. If I had the power to change my country, I would build more schools for the purpose of reducing the number of people who cannot afford to learn reading and writing.

    The happiest moment in my life was when I was selected to join form one at Gyekrum Arusha and I told my friends about that event. There was a little celebration in my family since they wanted me to go to secondary school. It was sometimes hard to attend school on time because I did not have complete school requirements like uniforms and school supplies. What remained to me was to study hard in order to reach what I planned to be. For sure, my dream is to be a medical doctor and this is going to be done through studying hard in biology, chemistry, and physics. In the future, I will support my community by participating in various social issues and building social services. If I had the power, I would make sure the educational system suited the needs of youth and old people.
