Dance for me because it helps us get the resources we need to keep going to Camp Kindle and SPEAK OUT.

A ‘Lil Bit About Myself

i was born in africa
i was born with hiv
it doesn’t stop me from being normal
i go to school everyday
but i still have to take medicine
it doesn’t stop me from being normal

i like the drums and reading
my mom and dad has it
it doesn’t stop me from being normal
i like rock, rap, hip hop, dance and jazz
i will live a long life like my parents
it doesn’t stop me from being normal

i was born in africa
i go to school everyday
i like the drums and reading
i like rock, rap, hip hop, dance and jazz
will i die before my parents
or will they die before me
sometimes it’s not easy having the disease
some people would think that i am different from them
it doesn’t stop me from being normal

I want to own my own business – a huge book store. I really like reading and I hope there are a lot of people who want to buy the books I have!
