How are you Melissa?I hope you are fine.I am fine too doing on well.
We had just closed schools for the August holiday.Here we are on the end of the winter season which is extremely too cold.But we are doing our best to make ourselves warm.
I had seen in your post asking me what I did for the science fair.We were enhancing our minds on how to come up with creative thinking.We opened minds of many people.However,during this term, we had ball games and other sports like playing badminton,table tennis and many more.Consequently,I did not participate in any because of the projects.Back home,I am are assisting my parents in home chores.I am also doing revision to better my results next term.Am very glad for your donation towards funding my education.Have a good time.
With Love,Muthini.

Hi Muthini,
I am glad to hear you are doing well. It sounds as if you had a busy term with science fairs and engineering projects! What did you do for the science fair? Also, congratulations on winning the 100m race!
We are in the midst of a hot summer here, but it just rained, so that helps a bit. We are under a tornado watch this afternoon which means there is still a lot of instability in the skies. But that is normal for this part of the country at this time of year!
I am working hard myself with online classes to learn skills that will help me find a new job.
I encourage you to enjoy your time while school is closed.
With love,
Melissa

    Elijah is the fourth born in a family of five. Their father neglected the family and left his mother the burden of providing for the family. The mother lost her business last year due to Covid-19 and now does casual jobs to support two of her daughters in secondary school. At home Elijah could not study well due to lack of reliable source of light. He used to wake up very early to make it to school in order to utilize the electricity at the school. Managing time well and consulting teachers made him excel in his studies. He aspires to be an aeronautical engineer and making new discoveries. His academic path so far has taught him that every successful person has a painful story. Elijah likes swimming.
