Slice Of Life: ‘I am saving to support brother’s education’

Chennai

I used to live in Thiruvanamalai till I finished Class 5. My father is a centering worker and I have a younger brother, Jeeva. We shifted to Vandalur five years ago and I continued my schooling at Peerkankarai government school. I had to drop out after completing Class 10 due to the family situation. I started working after that. Currently, I am working at a bakery and have been here for three years. It is a six-day week. I am saving whatever little I get to support my brother’s education. I want him to achieve his dreams. During my free time, I watch tutorials on Photoshop editing. I have started to design posters and banners now. I am getting a few orders now. I am trying to give the best output at a low cost. Am also trying to learn the work at the bakery by watching the other staff. I admire their work. I sometimes try to recreate their work. I hope to become a professional baker. My goal is to take care of my brother and parents and I am doing the best.
