I am Dulanma Sethunima. I am thirteen years old and am in Grade Nine. I study at G/St. Theresa's Balika Maha Vidyalaya, Elpitiya. My ambition is to become an English teacher. I will get high marks at my O/L and A/L examinations and enter the university. If I study hard, I will be able to achieve my dream. I want to become a good and a kind teacher and serve my country.
Call it what you may, everyone dreams of being someone or doing something different when they grow up. Some dream of being astronauts, rocket scientists, space explorers… Some dream of being clowns, comedians and running away to a circus. Still others wish to be lawyers, doctors, cricketers or superstars.
The sky, as they say, is the limit to your dreams… But what’s the fun if you keep it all to yourself? So why not put pen to paper, or finger to keyboard, and share with us what you dream of being, when you grow up? You can mail your dreams, along with your photograph to husnakghs@ yahoo.com or send it by snailmail to ‘Junior Observer’, No. 35, D.R. Wijewardene Mawatha, Colombo 10.
