Makati
I earned a place in the first year of senior school at the Makati Selective School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the graphic design course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $165, which is more than we have. I love graphic design and want to become a doctor. A laptop will let me do coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. I'll take care of everything you give me and I promise to work hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $165 goes: โ€ข Laptop: $105 โ€ข School uniform and shoes: $25 โ€ข Textbooks and workbooks: $30 โ€ข Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $5 I hope life is good to you.

    • Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Manila

      • Take care, Cecilia. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
