    In my life, I have experienced caring for people who cannot afford to do things, like washing their clothes, so that they can wear clean clothes. My difficult experience was failing my exams in my class. From that, I learnt to study a lot so that I can achieve my dreams. The memorable and happiest moment in my life happened when my parents took me to the waterfalls in Moshi. I saw how water fell from the top to the bottom of the mountain. It was amazing to me. My dream is to become a teacher. I have to put effort into my studies so that I reach my goals. After reaching my dream I will help my WEF community that helped me. If I had the power to change my country, I would purchase furniture to be used in school compounds, like desks, table, and chairs.

    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.

    The experience that I had early in life was to score good marks in my class, whereby I got good grades which encouraged me to study hard in class. The difficult experience that occurred in my life was an accident on my way back home. I learnt that I should not play again in bad areas. In my life I am proud of myself. I was getting low marks in class but now I have managed to improve a lot. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life is to play football. It exercises my body regularly and hence strengthens my body system. My dream is to become a mechanical engineer. The best way to reach it is through studying hard in school, in physics, mathematics and chemistry. If I had power in my country, I would change the education system of the country so that it helps graduates to depend more on self-employment.

    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.

    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.

    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.
