About

The most difficult experience in my life is the separation of my parents. I learned everyone in the family should love each other so the family would not fall apart. When I grow up I want to be an accountant because book-keeping is my favorite subject. I will study hard to get there. The happiest time in my life has not happened yet. It will be when I score the highest and get ranked number one in the class. I like to help the community and to teach them how to resolve the family issues so there will be no divorce. After I become an accountant, I will become a sponsor to the School Fund so it can continue help other students like me.

Dear Students,

Happy New Year 2017, congratulations on preparing for your exams and welcome back to school !

Here is a thought to begin the year on;

"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives".

Henry David Thoreau

be well,
Karen

Hi Judy,
I'm glad that i have already done my national examination and i'm now looking forward for my results.I know that my results are well because i studied harder though some of subtopics which i studied didn't come in my examination.Moreover i'm now using this holiday for studying my favor books though i feel like changing my ambition from being an accountant to a doctor.This makes me to put efforts on all of my subjects that i can study whatever i want in this year.We are now in the other year in which i'll choose the studies that i'm going to study.I like science and i think that science subjects are the ones which will enable my new dreams come true.What i promise you is that i'm going to study as harder as i can so that i reach my dreams.Have a wonderful day.

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

I hope you enjoy your final weeks, As always please speak Mr. Amos and Mr. Paulo any major issues you want bring it to my attention.

Hi

How are you? I hope you find school fun and changellenging.

Summer is almost over here in California. It has not been a hot summer. But we have not had any rain for a few months. I am looking forward to raining season in the winter.

I have a 13 years old dog. She is a small dog, Weighs about 14 pounds. Her name is Mabel. She wakes up everyday at 6:30 am and waits patiently for us to take her out to walk. Do you like dogs?

Write back to tell me what you like to do after school.

Dear Baraka,
It is back to school time again. Are you ready for the up coming challenging semester? Hope you have a successful school year.
Due to the global warming, everywhere seems to experience the climate change. In California, extreme hot and dry weather causes many wild fire. Fire has no mercy, it burned down everything in its path. I feel so bad for those who lost their homes and all their belongings. How is the weather in your neighborhood?
I am a volunteer to the TSFTZ team. I just finished logging the new O-Level students' information into the TSFTZ database. Finally I have some free time to write to you. I love to read your journal, please write to us when you get a chance.

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!

Dear Baraka,
I am very proud of your initiative of getting extra help and practice to improve your mathematics. Way to go! I want to let you know that I decided to fund your school fee because I know that you are worthy of my support! I have confidence that you will have a very bright future.
Make sure you take advantage of the great tool RACHEL PI which Judy brings to your school. I remember when I was young, I had to hike to library to collect information from a lot of reference books. Now all the information are in your fingertips. Please take advantage of this 20th century tool and utilize it as much as you can.

    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.

    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.

    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.
