My name is Osvaldo Ângelo, I am 19.
I started studying in 2001 when I was 6, and I finished grade 12 in 2012 when I
was 17. I come from Mecanhelas district, at Nicaca area.
I like talking with
people from outside like; Malawi, Britain, America and Tanzania, to exchange
ideas.
I like playing
with children and eating rice mixed with chicken.
One day when I was 4, I almost died because I went
in the well to take water by myself. I fell into the well and I did not know
how to swim. Luckily, my mother was coming at the same time and she threw a rope
to me and pulled me out.
When I was 6, on February
14th , 2001 my mother and father were removing the kernels from
maize. I was playing with them. One piece of maize got in my nose and it was
difficult to breathe. My father transported me to the hospital and the doctor
helped me. First, he tried to pull the kernel out with a tool, but it did not
work. Next, he held the top of my nose and he told me to blow air out of my
nose, and it worked. Blood came out too, so the doctor put something in my nose
to help heal the wound. Then we went home and after a week, I recovered. I didn’t
play with the maize ever again.
One day when I was
8, I was walking in the mountains and I was looking for sticks. I needed sticks
for the roof of the house I was building. I stepped on a big snake, called a
python. I was afraid but the python didn’t do anything to me. I was still
afraid so I ran home to tell my parents.
