Kristine's school year: uniform, books and a laptop

I earned a place in Grade 9 at Quezon City Girls' High 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 $150, which is more than we have. I love graphic design and want to become an architect. 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 $150 goes: • Laptop: $75 • School uniform and shoes: $40 • Textbooks and workbooks: $25 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $10 Thanks for being kind about this. - Kristine
