About

Class Rank: 2/301 My dream is to be an engineer someday because my uncle is an engineer , I admire him! I will study extra hard in three subjects: Physics, Math and Chemistry. My moment I felt especially proud is when I scored the 2nd best out of three hundred and one students in my terminal exam. My happiest moment in my life is when I get to live with my uncle and aunt after my parents died. I did not have to live in an orphanage. My most difficult experience is when I failed in my standard seven mock exams. Thanks God it was only a mock test! I learnt to always study and I thank God because now I am the 2nd best student. After my dream come true I plan to give back to the School Fund by helping other students who live a hard life. I will also take part in social activities to help those poor children in my community.

Hello Richard,
Well I am fine and I am doing well and I am so happy that we have already finished our exams but the more challenged one are still ahead of us so we should no let our guard down by preparing our self well in our next coming examination. well about the question I asked you if ethanol is a base or an acid well ethanol is sort of both weak acid or a weak base due to electron transfer in ethanol.

Hello!

My name is Brend, and I'm a high school student from the United States. I'm almost 17 years old, and I like sports, science, and I like to sleep. I'd like to get to know some of you as well, so feel free to talk to me. But I have a question, if you had 3 wishes for anything, what would you use them on?

Hi judy,
how are you? I hope you are fine.but it's been a long time since i received your journal.So i asked my self why doesn't she give the feedback? but now through your journal you wrote to me i know that you were so busy to attend conferences.

When i am at school i like to read different books about scientists in the world.But i dislike to fail in exams because when i face this situation even my face changes.So that's why i study very hard so as to set goals for my self.
have a nice weekend,
Yours,
Richard.

Dear student,
It has been very long time since last time I wrote to you. I have been out of town attending conferences, doing business and helping with family issues.
I know the new school year began two months ago and I hope you are able to focus on your studies and set goals for yourself. I hope you are doing well this school year.
In your journals I would like to see you are learning, what you like and dislike about the school, your accomplishments, your difficulties your life and your obstacles you face.
I want you to evaluate yourself, what is your strength and weakness, which area do you need to improve yourself. That way I could know who you are and help me to know you better. I wish you have a great year ahead of you and let me know there are anything you need me to help.
Best regards, Judy

Dear Richard,

I hope that you are doing good, at my side am quite fine and that Is why I took an opportunity to write this journal to you.

In this journal I want to share with you what I have been doing in this week, from Monday to Friday the week is very tight in terms of time because from 7:50am every weekday the periods begin and end at 3:00pm and after normal class sessions we have the practical session where we do some experiments of Chemistry, Physics or Biology basing on the time table arrangements of the day in a week after that we have tuition session that begins from 4:30pm to 5:30pm and in the tuition we have physics, chemistry and maths so that is how my time table is EXEPT Friday where lessons end at 12:20pm.

I hope that even you have a time table or a ritual of activities that you do daily and it could be very interesting knowing it if you care.

Regards
Henry.

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

    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.
