My name is Marisa Francis and I study at St. Bridget's Convent, Colombo. My ambition is to become a history teacher. I like to teach and history is my favourite subject. I was inspired to become a history teacher after my visit to the historical city of Anuradhapura. Sri Lanka has a beautiful history. There are interesting things to see such as dagobas, statues and lakes built by our ancient kings. I visited the Colombo Museum too and it helped me to learn a lot. I will study hard and achieve my dream. I will enjoy my profession after I become a wonderful teacher.
Hope, wish, fantasy….
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.
