I came from Matsangoni, a centre near Mahenzo. I got to Mahenzo because it is a school closer to my home. I always admired it because it has good teachers and facilities. I come from a poor family that struggles to pay for school fees. It is a hard life because my parents are old and do not have jobs. But I want to proceed with my studies so badly. I want to achieve my goals, but my family situation really cannot help me.

My relatives have been encouraging me to continue with school. My teachers have also been very encouraging; I am happy for that. My goal in life is to become a professional science teacher. I love to play football to pass time. I enjoy my physical education classes the most. It will be difficult for me to find a way to pay for university. My name is Collins Geji, and I will not give up.
