Going to college was difficult for me because my family was very poor and needed my help with money. My mother, however, encouraged me and insisted that I continue my education. Therefore, when I graduated from high school, I started attending night college and working all day. After two years I changed to day college and a part-time job. Now I am a fulltime student in my junior year③, majoring in international relations and economics④.

 

　　It is difficult for a young man to speak of his philosophy of life, but I believe it is very important for every person to have a sense of pride and dignity⑤in his own worth. My aim in life is to help my people become better off economically. Also, I would like to do something to help mankind and to promote brotherhood⑥among all men of all nations, no matter what color they are.
