About

I'm the fifth born child in a family of six girls. My father died in 2001 and my mother is a small scale peasant and therefore is unable to afford to take care of us. I believe that education will help me to achieve my goal and help other people who are in need like me.

Hi

How are you guys doing?

I understand the school semester is coming to an end very soon. Have you had a good semester? Are you looking forward to having some time off.

I have not done much since I wrote to you last time. Just the daily routine stuff. One thing I would like to mention is my volunteer work in a animal shelter. Every Monday I go to an animal shelter to take care of some dogs. This shelter has both dogs and cats. Since I am allergic to cats, I limited my work with just dogs. I take them out to walk around the neighborhood and give them many treats. Some of the dogs have been there for quite a while. I feel very bad for them. I wish I can adopt them. But I already have a dog at home. She will not be happy if I bring other dogs home. She does not want to share me with other dogs.

I am leaving for a trip to Antartica in December. I hope it will not be too cold while I am there. I will let you know how it is like there.

Hope you have a good time during your month off.

Until next time,

Indy

Hello Gloria Isdori,

I just read your posting on mathematics being your favorite topic, I cannot tell you how much I admire that. My whole life I have been "math deaf" it is as if someone is speaking to me in a language that I don't understand.

It may be that even though math is sometime hard, the feelings of accomplishment that you experience when you succeed it what makes this topic your favorite.

My bother was good at math, and he told me once that he liked math so much, "because it is pure logic".
I liked that reason. But to this day I don't understand it.

with my best wishes,
Karen

Hi

My name is Indy Ting. I am very happy that Judy asks me to write to you and to become a friend to you.

First, Let me introduce myself to you. After working in the computer industry for many years, I retired about 7 years ago. I and my husband moved to San Fransco area about two years ago. I have two grown up daughters who live in New York City. I do not get to see them often. Right now I have a dog that lives with us. She is a very cute dog. My husband and I enjoy taking her for a walk everyday.

How is school these days? I missed my school days. Mathematics and writing were my favorite subject. What subject do you like.

My husband and I spend a month in Botswana and Keyna in 2015. It was an amazing experience for us. Hopefully we can go back to visit again.

Please write back to me. I am very interested to know what you are doing and what you life is like at school. Or you can ask me questions, any kind of questions.

Looking forward to hearing fro you.

Indy

Hello everyone,
I like to tell you about this interesting that i saw it for the first time since my presence in this world. It was 1st of September when the Solar eclipse had occurred. It is said that it occurred lastly since 1970s probably most of us were not alive. It was really cool though it was observed to our places by 90% but it was really fun to look at. It started from10 to 3,when it started i was inside the classroom until one of my friend shouted and called my name so I can observe this action LIVE!! people were screaming out loud with joy. They used some small pieces of papers and the black glasses. When I saw the instruments were few I wanted to use my eyes directly but they said its not good because the rays may damage my lovely eyes. It was really fun not to me but to everyone who saw this and surely it has made a great history to our lives.

Hi students,

Your new semester has started for a couple weeks and I hope you all enjoy it.

Do you have any plans or wishes in the new semester? Please write them down in your journals. For example, you can say....I want to be the top three students in my class....I want to help my friends.....or I want to read three books about biology(if you are interested in biology)

Every month, we can review the progress of your plan and try to make it work.

I hope you all have a wonderful semester and your plans will work out and dreams will come true.

Best Regards,
Ying

Hello,

How have you been? As another school year comes to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on another successful academic year.
For fun, I’d like to share with you some interesting facts about a country that I visited with my family recently and liked it very much.
This nation is a mountainous island called Iceland located in the North-Atlantic ocean close by the Arctic Ocean. The name Iceland may not be all that appropriate because although 10% of Iceland is covered by glaciers, it has a surprisingly mild climate and countless geothermal hot-spots and hot springs. It was one of the last places on earth to be settled my humans. There are some fun facts about this country that I thought you might find amusing:
1) Iceland’s revenue from whale watching from tourists exceeds any income from whaling.
2) Mosquitoes do not exist in Iceland. For this reason alone, I love this country :)
3) The Icelandic police don’t carry guns. Crime in Iceland is very low and violent crime is practically nonexistent.
4) Because the country is so safe, they have not had to build more jails in years. As a result there is a waiting list up to 3 months to be admit to jail :)
5) Around 85% of Iceland's electricity and heating comes from hydroelectric power and geothermal water.
6) They are very proud to be the “greenest” country in the world with virtually no pollution.

I hope you will use Rachel-Pi to check out this country and their images.
Have a wonderful summer!

    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.

    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.
