The Successful Old Boys Of Ombaci

How has the room that used to be our main “jar base” in both ‘O’ and ‘A’ level become the new staff room? This was where we really fought with Bukenya for our future in ‘O’ level and proved ourselves valiant to him but later things became complicated in ‘A’ level.

I really desired to do PCM in ‘A’ level since my child hood so that I could be an engineer in future. But only in one week’s time after joining ‘A’ level with my desired PCM combination things seemed not to be working out well in math’s because I had forgotten my vectors and matrices of ‘O’ level and decided to replace it with biology because I still remembered my DNA replications and the reproduction process. I later then put in my mind that, my next career was to be a doctor. But also from nowhere, all the three subjects, physics, chemistry, and biology were proving tougher as I could not understand them at all. I had actually forgotten my genetics crosses in biology. I then sat down for one full week to think about what to do for my future. I finally decided to try a HEL combination as I thought was my destination in everything after the long struggle.
Thinking that I had dodged calculations successfully in math, I also discovered tougher ones in economics even to an extent where one was to calculate the quantities of goods sold in the market when even it wasn’t there. That made me developed an idea of doing HLD combination as I considered divinity to be for everyone because I went to church frequently, knew some bible verses and had somehow a good command of English language
After all those struggles and consolations, I found myself getting some fairly good number of points at the end of the year in my HLD combination.
My dear Ombacians in the struggle, things are hard. Let us read our eyes red, sit our buttocks flat and write our pens dry then see what to do next in UNEB to face any form of storm, be it PCM, PCB, HEL, HLD
