I left home at 10.00 am going to Gayaza High School. I wondered how Gayaza High School looked like. Though I had been in Kampala before and grew up from different areas in Kampala e.g Kabowa, Kazo, Kasubi, I had never been to Gayaza.
I arrived at Gayaza High School at 3.00 pm. I had thought we would have lunch but we only had evening tea and supper. Day zero was boring for me.
On Day 1, I learn’t how to be a person with value in the world. I never knew I can be somebody of value but now I am going to be. We had good meals and I thought that was a welcome but as days passed on I realized that this was the nature of the WSWM workshop. I knew that liquid soap is made by white people but I realized that even me I can make it.
I learnt that I can also change the environment or country in which I live in positively.
On Day 4, I was not feeling well but I did not care as long as I learnt more. I now don’t care about my family background all what I care about is where I am going heading for my future dream.
Some of the things at the workshop were difficult for me e.g using the computer, searching for the information on the Internet but I am happy I came to the workshop and I thank so much the people who organized this workshop.
I know I now have to teach the new generation as a student peer education. I have the responsibility of giving my fellow students new tips of being successful in the world. With the experience I have got I will be my responsibility in action.
Because of the WSWM workshop, I am now a new leader, a changed person. No going backwards but forwards. I am not the same as I came. I don’t know what has happened but I have now even changed my way of talking. I have copied the culture of Gayaza High School.
I have learned through the experiences at the WSWM workshop that the world is to be changed by young people. Together young people we can change the world positively. That is my next step because I also want to be like Malala from Pakistan. I will change Uganda and the world at large. If me and other young people can unite, we can make a difference. I learn’t that no matter your age, you can change the world positively and make the impossible possible. I believe that I am now the next 15 year old girl to change the world .
I also developed the desire for loving, caring and fighting for the right things to be done in the world. I also learn’t that no matter how small I am, I can do big things to change the young generation positively.
