Dear diary,
I am so happy that I finally become something that I desperately wanted to be.
Even with my disability, I am able to become a perfectionist in instruments.
My ears might not help me but my senses are always there to help and it is the greatest blessing for me.
I am lucky to achieve the status I gained today.
If it wasn’t for Ron Forbes, I won’t have been here.
He supported me so much. It was the turning point for me where the vibrations and sound become my friend.
I know now that disability will never be my hindrance. It is my strength.

Dear diary,
I am very happy that after so much hard work atlast I achieved my goal.Although I faced many difficulties in my way ,there are some people who really helped me in achieving my dream. Let's write my life story today. It was my first day in Royal Academy of music in London, I was very nervous because it was the biggest challenge for me though I was deaf I wanted to learn music. I lost my hearing power gradually. My deafness was first noticed by my mom when I was eight... she was calling me to play the piano but actually I didn't hear it and it was proved that I lost my hearing ability when I was eleven. My headmaster asked my parents to take me to a specialist when we went there the doctor said that my hearing was severely damaged. Everyone started advising that I should be sent to a schools of deaf. For me everything suddenly looked black. But I was not ready to give up so easily. One day I noticed a girl playing and I wanted to play it too. Most of the teachers started discouraging me Sir Ron Forbes didn't do so, he started helping me. He began by tuning two large drums to different notes. he asked me not to hear the music but to sense it in some other way. Suddenly I realised that I could feel the higher drum from the waist up and the lower one from the waist down. In this way I learned to open my mind and body to sounds and vibrations. I toured the UK when I was sixteen.... from that time onwards I made music my life. I was very happy when I got the highest score in Royal Academy of Music. I say that Music pours through each and every part of my body..... I have just got to work..... often harder but the rewards are numerous. Apart from regular concerts I also give free concerts in prisons and hospitals. At last I just want to conclude that "IF YOU WORK HARD AND KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING, YOU'LL GET THERE "
HOPE IT HELPS ♥ ♥ ♥
