Story of my life by Zabuli.

My name is Nasejje Jaliah, born and raised in Entebbe by a Christian mother and a Muslim father.  I am the third born out of five children. Among the 5, we are 4 girls and one boy.  I went through primary school in Entebbe and completed my primary 7 in 2004. I later joined high school in 2005 at Light Secondary School in Bulenga where life changed radically because school was hard.

Mum and Dad were low on finances so I had to learn how to survive the hustler's way. Being a girl, I had come from a background of friends who were in a gang of 7 boys and I was the only gal in the gang so I had a tomboy attitude towards life hence it wasn’t easy to live but I forced my way to live happy at all costs. This sow me starting vices like stealing, selling marijuana among others just to fit in the group and help mum not to worry about me at school as I had seen her on several occasions crying to God just to provide for the next day.

She really was a hardworking woman even up to date. I felt the need to help her out but istead this made her cry because everyday I was before leaders and teachers in the disciplinary committee at school due to my wrong doings. I was an outcast. I would fight and beat life out of whoever went against me.

This earned me some time in prison just to learn a lesson which Mum didn’t know about. It was after I had been suspended from school that she got to know of all my dirty life in school.

After 3 years, I failed senior 4 though I got a chance to go to senior 5 with poor grades. In my form 4, I did exams on handcuffs. Not even this was enough to change me.

2009 came by and I went to a day school for my Advanced level. Every day I saw my mum cry in prayer for me to change because "everyone thought my life had no meaning at all". I was an outcast that nobody wanted anything from me. Not even my own father.
