My Introduction
My name is sonam tsering. I was born in a medium sized town called Shangri- La. It was part of Tibet half a century ago, but today it belongs to YUNNAN province of China. My birthday is 1st August 1986 .I spent only ten years with my grandparents as my father died when I was 7 years old .Three years later, my mother took my brother; older sister and I and separated from my grandparents' family . We began a new family within 2000 Yuan (Chinese currency) since that day .
My school life was began in 1994, when I was 8 years old, I was went to a Chinese school for about 7 years, there I learned how to speak Chinese an write my feelings in Chinese. When I was 15 years old I was left the school because some circumstances had happened in my family, so I have no choice .Then I wandered about six years. During that time, I was in lots of place in China, and I learned some life skills such as carpentry, driving and I spent half of the wandered times in a specific job, that I keen to do, it was a very interested job, to be a jockey, but it is a hard job. I feel proud that I was luckily born in a poor family, which made me more interested to know the things that I haven't experienced in my family. That is why? I decided to leave my near people and home town to begin to walk north to India for my studies.
I arrived in India on 8th January 2008 .Here I got a second opportunity to join a school which called T.C.V. School SUJA, but the beginning
of that school I got or faced a big problem that I couldn't understand what they talked about as I never learned Tibetans in my past life. Of course, about English I was a blind. But I didn't give up to get something from there so I spent about three and a half years my first letters both in English and Tibetan. For sure I can't emphasize enough how important this school was to me . There I matured as a adult, and I could to think about my future as well as show me the main purpose of life, than I found an aim I found the direction and the way to my ambition, but still I wasn't content with myself while I was there. That's why I joined this school (E.S. TIBET school,) as my sixth sense told me that it was the best way to fulfill my dream and my future.
I was very delighted that I could join E.S.T school where I wanted to be. So I made some commitments to myself for my new starting point in my life. However I never forget those people who had given me their helping hands. Especially my mother, she made me what I am today, she supported me in whatever I wanted to do. The most unforgettable thing is that she brought me up in such hard conditions I'll stand on a corner of the world and pray for my family to have a healthy life.
Thanking you
