Recognition of Somaliland

" Dear Patriot and Friend,

If you’re getting this message, then you’re considered one of the many privileged individuals who would actually believe in the perceived betterment of our autonomous, will-become-a-country, region of Somaliland. I don’t know if you might have realized or not, but statistics are not looking good for our homeland. I have read a lot of articles online recently, none of which actually preludes our country as a country. Therefore, we have to marshal our powers of patriotism and resilience, limited as they may be, to do something for our country. Like it or not, the future of this country rests on our hands, so might as well just embark on that journey right now. I agree, it might get dreadful and some of us will give up.


However, I refuse to accept that our leaders who died so that we can live a better life didn’t do so just so we can get rich and be that way. I refuse to accept to just stand there and watch when my country crumbles. I refuse to accept it. Therefore, my notion is simple, dear reader. All you have to do is take a picture with a poster that reads your name, I am a Somalilander, and what Somaliland means to you. For example, my names is X, I am a Somalilander, and Somaliland means the world to me (I’m sure you’ll come up with ones that are far more creative than that).



My goal is that by the end of this year, the whole world will know what Somaliland is and there are millions of people that it defines. We refuse to be called Somalia, just because we are not. Therefore, the choice is yours; in the eyes of the world, you can be a Somalilander or a Somalian. Your choice. If this peeked your interest, then maybe sharing it with your family and/or friends wouldn’t be a crime.


Thank you,


A Somaliland Citizen"

My Life at Abaarso Tech
The Remarkable Journey

Brief Biography

My name is Abdiladif Mohamed Ali and I was born in Ethiopia (Harar) and grew up in Diri-dhaba. I spent almost half of my life there. I came from there when I was almost nine years and I spent the rest of my life in Burco. Burco is a unique place for me and also has a huge impact on my life mainly because that was where I started my primary school. I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.

How I got to Abaarso Tech

—It was 3, Oct, 2009 when my dream finally came true. I have always dreamed about going to a boarding school just like my father did when he was young. My father motivated me to go to a boarding school & I fortunately did it. It was a spectacular plan for me to come here because I wouldn’t meet with this people.
—I was astonished by the reaction of the students when I first came at the school because they treated me as a member of their family. In fact, they were amiable & obedient. The most extra-ordinary thing about this school is the quality of education. The teachers are well qualified & well respected. The teachers & students treat as parents & children, in fact they treat with love & devotion. The teachers & students are always prompt. I was bewildered by their punctuality. Punctuality is an aspiration.
—In life, we learn cycles of joy & pain, success & failure. When we embark on the journey to reach our goals, we must persist and persevere. We cannot give up or lose faith. Don’t follow your dreams, chase them.
—“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes our life interesting"

The four years at Abaarso Tech

qFirst Year
üMost bizarre year ever, white faces, white walls, totally new environment. For me it was the longest of all years. I struggled so much, whether it was academics or life itself. The food was different, the climate was different. I met with different people, I also made friends and most importantly, we had a lot fun this year.
qSecond Year
üThis year moved so fast and there was scarcity of food, rooms, classes. New students arrived and it was in fact survival to the fittest.
qThird Year
üThis year, the school was in a complete pandemonium, the school was at the edge of shutting down and life was actually atrocious.
qFourth Year
üThis year was actually the most fascinating because we went to Addis to take the SAT. During this year most seniors started applying for colleges which was in fact a marvelous achievement.

  Friends

—My friends mean everything to me. I didn’t have much friends back in Burco. I met here people from different places & dialects. I also learn from my friends how to interact & co-operate with one another. Fraternity is our slogan & we respect each other with genuine, kindness & generosity. Unfortunately, nowadays I’m loosing my best friends; people who I care about. It’s sad but life is full of ups & downs & speed bumps. You can complain life all you want but remember you did something to deserve it. My companions  are  like my brother & I learn an enormous amount of lessons from them. Take an initiative  & always believe & aspire.
—It was a pleasure spending time with you guys. I’ll miss you!

Family

ØHaving a family is one of the most crucial things in life.
ØWithout a family, life would loose it’s meaning. A special thanks goes to my beloved parents who encouraged me in a lot of aspects & told me what’s right from what is wrong.
ØWithout my parents, I would not be in this position right now. They are the reason why I’m here.
ØI have 6 siblings, 3 brothers & 3 sisters.
ØIn my family, solidarity plays an important role. Treating with respect & benevolence is also indispensable.

 

—Accomplishments at Abaarso Tech

I built a solid foundation of Math and English.
—Not only my Math and English improved but most importantly, I understood the significance of morality.
—I also comprehended the importance of ethics and integrity.
—During the first year at Abaarso, I became the second spelling bee champion of the entire school, perseverance is an essential ingredient for  success.
—I also understood how to manage and use my time wisely and efficiently.
—The best juggler at the school.

Plans and Advices

A.Plans

ØI am looking forward to take a post graduate next year insha’allah at Abaarso Tech. I cannot predict where my next journey will take me but simultaneously I should focus on my objectives. “Whatever you do today will determine the kind of person you’ll be tomorrow”. I want to study medicine & humanity but I‘m not totally positive. Life becomes hard as time progresses, when you guys become seniors you guys will realize how it feels to be indecisive about your future goals.

B. Advice

In the journey to life’s high way, keep your eyes of open upon a goal. Knowledge helps us to reach our destination. Anything is possible if you are willing to work very hard for it. In addition, there will be luck but it’s a coincidence how hard work is almost always accompanied by good work. My advice to you is to dream big and aim high but couple that with dedication, determination, concentration, tenacity, patience and hard work as well. This is the prerequisite for ultimate success in life. “There is a way to be good again”. Always be optimistic in life, unite & collaboration-the ultimates success

Education is the key of accomplishments and favorable  welcome of the whole universe. So the knowledge and proficiency  is the ambition of every child and forwarded individuals like to achieve. Then it’s Abaarso Tech to shape your future & strength your ability of doing something & self-confident.
—Abaarso Tech students are ideal and the top selected ones in their generations of every field they appear.

—To abridge my points, the finish line of every race in life is the starting point of another one and the greater race of life starts when you leave this school. Hence, recipe for success: study while others are sleeping: work while others are wandering and prepare while others are playing.
—To my fellow brothers & sisters who are leaving the school, I honestly never understood the treasure of Abaarso Tech’s worth until the time has stolen it away from me. Four year at Abaarso Tech is centainly not an easy time & we may curse the school a lot during that period  but it’s worth for every sad and happy moment we spend together. In this school, I have met strangers that were all weird to me at first but later on became my family. In this moment, I can only say that you guys will now & forever be my family.
— Finally, May Allah bless you & help you with your future endeavors.
Thank you so much for your cooperation brothers & sisters, that means a lot to me. Have good life folks!

Dear MAMA

I have know you since my day of birth, may be few year more.
There are a lot of formidable things i could tell but i reject to bore.
Dear MAMA!
I love you from the bottom of my heart.
You are astute, you're noble of heart, you're the best. there is much more i could say, but i can only thing of one.
It's happy mother's day.
You're philanthropic, you're kind-hear ted, you're my soul, you're my sight. you're everything to me. Without you, i wouldn't be in this position right now. I LOVE YOU MAMA!

Life is what you make it. In fact, for some its a sea full of what to does and where to goes while for other its a never ending journey full of predicaments with obstacles and speed-bumps. Life is treating me just fine, about as good as I treat it back, so we have some sense of reciprocity. Of course the next great adventure awaits all of you, regardless where your next port of destination lies, and I can only hope it is the sailing that you plan to enjoy as much as finding land. We can call that an "extended metaphor" It is my intention to keep in mind the site of so many good memories and lessons, both received and given, for the occassion of your everyday life. No matter how angry you get, you will always end up forgiving the people you like. Always forgive but never forget, learn from you mistakes but never regret, people change, things go wrong, just remember life goes on
