. >> my name is jessica achieng. i live in kenya, at a place called dandora. i have two siblings. their names are brian and adolphe. my mother sells maize, and my father is a mason, and so now he went to work. i like going to school because it is fun and you have new friends, you learn, it will help you, so that if you are grown, you will be a better person in the future. my hope is to help the needy, by providing for them shelter, clothes, and their basic needs. i like writing songs, i like practicing. that's what i always do when i am free. when my mother tells us jokes. i am afraid of heights. like, for example, if i am standing on a tall building, i can't look down because i am afraid i'll fall. i would like to be a musician because it is my talent and i love singing so much. i feel like i can sing, but i don't have a beat. this life is hard. still struggling until i become the best. >> in the early 20th century, africa was home to an estimated 10 million or more elephants. a hundred years later, poaching and habitat loss have caused their numbers to drop to no more than 400,0
