MY STORY

My name is Rashed Ahmed Al Fahim; I was born in Abu Dhabi on May 9th 1992. I have four brothers, three are older than me and one is younger, my parents got separated when I was three so me and my brothers live with my mother.

I graduated from Alworood Academy on 27/06/2009. Now I am starting my first college year in ADMC. I am planning on getting a bachelor degree in Accounting and get an ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants).

I want to work in the family business after I get my bachelor degree because I want to help grow the business that my grandfather started 50 years ago. But I also would like to start my own business one day.

My best summer vacation

On June 1999, my mother surprised my brothers and I by telling us that she bought the house in London that we used to rent every year.
We were very excited to go to London, and my mother told me that my cousins are going to come with us, so I got even more excited because all my cousins are close to my age.
Two weeks later, we all went to the airport together and got on the plane. After we reached London we went to Croydon, that’s where our house is. When we entered the house we were in shock because we saw a woman that my mother hates, living inside the house. My brothers and I were laughing but my mother got angry so that was fun for us. A few days later we all settled down in the house and everyone got to choose their own room, the house was always filled with laughs and everyone was having a great time. My cousins used to race me downstairs to see who gets to play the Nintendo first.
After a month we went back to Abu Dhabi and a few days later we heard that the woman who lived in the house broke a water pipe and flooded the house.
I’m just happy that I have the memory of the perfect summer vacation
