About

I was happy when I was selected to join my secondary school. When I was in Standard 4, I was not good in the class, but when I started Standard 5, my marks improved and I maintained the position of #1 student through Standard 7. The hardest part of my life is the challenge of poverty. We live with a less balanced diet and lack school needs and clean water. Sometimes I fail to get school items like books, clothes (uniforms), and mathematical instruments. My dream is to become a pilot and this can be possible through education.

Hello Susan. I am confident of the topic on erosion through water because is much affects our environment. Erosion and deposition are responsible for many land forms. Erosion is the transport of sediments. Agents of erosion
include flowing water, waves, wind, ice, or gravity. Eroded material is eventually dropped somewhere else. This is
called deposition.
How Flowing Water Causes Erosion and Deposition
Flowing water is a very important agent of erosion. Flowing water can erode rocks and soil. Water dissolves
minerals from rocks and carries the ions. This process happens really slowly. But over millions of years, flowing
water dissolves massive amounts of rock.
Moving water also picks up and carries particles of soil and rock. The ability to erode is affected by the velocity,
or speed, of the water. The size of the eroded particles depends on the velocity of the water. Eventually, the water
deposits the materials. As water slows, larger particles are deposited. As the water slows even more, smaller particles

    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.

    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.
