Hawdgirl Posted June 29, 2005 With faith, determination and perseverance, Somali students everywhere beat the odds despite of the challenging issues that they face academically especifically those who enter high schoolcolleges and or universities with little or no former schooling, and a minimal literacy skills.Catching up academically represents a formidable challenge and students may often give up unless they have support in terms of financially, academically and socially. But many of us don't get the help that they need but still get the courage from where ever it comes from and move blindly and boldly in a world that is new to them. So wouldn't you congratulate such students? Wouldn't you encourage them? Wouldn't you see them as your role models? And most of all wouldn't you admit that they beat most of the odds espeically of those of academics. Please take the time to congratulate such students you don't have to name them. I hope that they will be kuwii dadkooda iyo dalkoodaba wax tara. Thanks Hawd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Siman Posted June 30, 2005 Thanks HawdGirld for bringing our attention to this unforeseen fact. I have seen students with absolutely no formal education in any form prior to coming to American that within few short years manage to graduate from Universities! They represent what is possible through strong will, hard work perseverance and self-confidence. Their unwavering believes that through hard work everything is achievable made it possible for them to accomplish what for many is beyond imagination. Again, power to all hardworking Somali student/recent graduates wherever they are. Siman Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawdgirl Posted July 13, 2005 "Would have given advice, but I don’t want to bore yal to death". Hey farm your advice will be really appreciated by us, at least by me, so let it out, it would be worth, it never hurts to let others know about what u think would be a benefit to them.
