When I was a child​,

 

I wanted to be a primary school teacher, or a well-educated man like Sir Lala Sukuna.

Science was my favorite subject, and chemistry made me exited, for it seemed to help creating something new. My favorite toy was, wanguaniviti, a boat made of a halved coconut. After eating its flesh, I would put stones in it to make it stable, and would stick a shell onto the coconut husk as a rudder post. I would race with it, and won sometimes. There was no TV in my house, but everything that I wanted was around me.
