    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.

    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.

    During my standard seven national examinations, I had an eye illness. From this I learned that your health has to be checked regularly. This moment is the one which inspired me to become an optician. I have to study very hard so as I can reach my dream of becoming an optician. The happiest moment when I felt proud of myself was when I scored division one of point seven and I took position number one in the class. The memorable moment was when I visited Manyara National Park through the sponsorship of my teacher. After I reach my dream, I will pay back my community by giving them education about how eye defects are caused and how to prevent them. I will help WEF by volunteering in several activities concerning the World Education Fund. When I have power to change in my country, I would like to change the system of education from much theory to more practice.

    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.

    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 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.
