important sana kwa life yangu.<br />
Ebu tucheki mafans wa DJ B. ambao<br />
walibonga naye kuhusu mambo<br />
yamekuwa yakiendelea<br />
kwa life yangu…<br />
Hi DJ B, skills ndogo<br />
ni<br />
noma! Imagine<br />
nilisaidia mathe<br />
kupanda sukuma,<br />
instead of a vitungu<br />
na cabbage na kuuza<br />
na nikamaliza kusoma<br />
computer na hizo doo!<br />
“Nilisoma Shujaaz na nikaona hiyo idea ya kupanda<br />
sukuma ni poa. Nilibonga na mathe aka-convince buda<br />
kunigawia ka-portion ya shamba. Nikapanda sukuma,<br />
onions na cabbages.<br />
Ilikuwa a small project lakini I was surprised kuona outcome. Nilianza<br />
kupata doo ambazo nililipia fees na zingine kutumia kama bufero.<br />
Sasa juu nimemaliza college ya comp, na-plan ku-join Egerton Campo.<br />

Wasee kuna matha flani hapa mtaani amenichanua<br />
sana. Unajua huku kwetu hakuna space mob ya kuwa<br />
na shamba, lakini yeye bado ana-grow sukuma!<br />
Alini-inspire sana na nika-try hata mimi.<br />
Advise yangu kwa mayuth ni kuwa, hakuna haja ya kukaa tu<br />
around bila kitu ya kufanya. There are so many opportunities out<br />
here. Try ua best. Pia, mayuths wa-make lives zao simple.<br />
Ku-complicate life hu-leta tu loss.”<br />
Nilikuwa successful n nimefurahi kama<br />
hata wewe umefanikiwa.
