My name is Zuha Azhar. I study in Grade One at Arafa Muslim Vidyalaya, Handessa. I want to become a doctor when I grow up. I like to use a stethoscope and check my patients' heartbeats. I will give them the right medicines. I will be a kind and a generous doctor. I will not cheat the patients. I like see a world free of sick people. I will achieve my ambition one day.
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.
