We then pass through primary school and pray we get into the high school of our choice. That, my friends, is when we realize that we want to be somebody big: a pilot, a doctor, an engineer, a lawyer, to name a few.
My dream was to become a nurse, like my mother. Sadly, I graduated from high school at a very tender age and none of the Nursing Schools I applied to would take me; so I did the next best thing: I applied to Teachers' College. I was qualified but still had to wait another year before they would take me. So in 2003, I started; and I did what anyone my age would have done: I proved the masses wrong! Age is just a number and it does not define when one can become successful!
I went on to pursue my Bachelor's Degree in Education, and I managed to get a few years' teaching experience in the mix. But something was missing! That was just not enough! I wanted more! So I applied to university in Canada, and no, I'm not pursuing a Master's Degree in Education. I'm planning to revolutionize people's way of thinking; the way how people look at and think about their environment.
