I am the oldest child in my family and I have two sisters, both of them in primary school. I cannot express in words the happiness that swamped me when I was chosen to join TSF. It ended problems relating to my studies. I felt proud of myself when I was selected to represent my school in the science competition. It was a challenge for me but I refused to sell out the opportunity because the school believed in me. I hope one day to represent my country. I want to be a cardiac surgeon. To be a cardiac surgeon is more than a calling and I must have things like good performance, trust, respect and discipline. If I succeed, I will be able to help my family and also I will always feel good to give a bit of earnings to others.

Class Rank: 3/50 I live with my uncle and aunt. My dream is to be an engineer. I Know that in order to get there I should focus on science subjects such as Chemistry, Physics etc. My most difficult experience in my life is when my aunt and uncle told me that I lost both of my parents. I learned that life is too short, you really don't know when your life will end. A moment when I felt proud was when I got the information that I scored the second out of fifty students in my class. The happiest moment in my life was when I was chosen by The School Fund so that would be able to continue my education. I hope to be able to advance to next level of education and achieve my goal by studing extra hard.
