    Our small farming activities do not support all of our education. Sometimes I feel unhappy when we miss getting some of the school items on time. This is sometimes a difficult moment to me When I passed my primary school examination by grade A, it was the moment when I felt proud of myself and it became the memorable and the happiest moment in my life. I dream of becoming a surgical doctor. I will fulfill my dream by studying hard in biology, physics, and chemistry. After I reach my dream, I will help my community by contributing on issues concerning the health infrastructure and also by giving them education about different diseases. If I had power to change my country, I would like to change the system of health by separating the hospitals according to the services needed by patients.

    The experience that I had earlier in my life is farming so that we could get some money for our family activities. I managed to help my parents to make their work easier on the farms. The most difficult experience that I had was lack of education earlier in my life because my parents could not get money to send me to school. I learnt that when there is a lack of income in the family, some needs cannot be given. The moment that made me proud was passing the midterm examination. I managed to score division one point eight. That?s why I still put in more effort to achieve more excellence in my studies. In my life the most memorable and happiest thing was when my dad congratulated me for scoring good performance in class. The dream in my life is to become a dentist because of the dental problems that attack many people that are nearby our home. After achieving my dream, I would like to build some hospitals that would provide dental treatment in my society. I would also make some donations back to my WEF family for their big support. If I had the power to change my country, I would construct more health centers for saving the lives of people.

    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.

    The day I heard my standard seven result, I was so happy. My father congratulated me. I am now here at Endarofta Secondary school for the accomplishment of my dream. I am sure that one day I will be the greatest man in this world. When I get power, I will support my community by educating them about the ways to overcome poverty. This is because most of our society is deeply in poverty. I will make sure that I can pay for some of the things required for their education as time goes on. My dream is to be a farmer. I can reach that by studying agriculture, geography, and physics. I will use modern methods of cultivation so as to get enough yield.

    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.

    An experience which I remember from early in my life was when I started to learn English. My most difficult experience was in standard five when our family did not have money, and we decided to move around the street and sell bananas in order to get some money. From that difficulty, I learnt to study hard in order to have a good standard of life. The moment when I felt especially proud of myself was when my last young brother was born. The happiest thing in my life is when I joined a school team. I want to be a large-scale farmer. I will get there by studying hard and performing well in agriculture subjects. After I reach my dream, I need to help my family and community by cooperating in different activities. I will provide employment to people and I will help WEF by helping the school. I would like to change my community by helping disabled people.
