BIG Dreams start small; and for David Kaija and Sarah Kisakye, they seem to be closing in on their childhood plans.

BIG Dreams start small; and for David Kaija and Sarah Kisakye, they seem to be closing in on their childhood plans.
David, who scored 4ABBA in his Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Economics, also has a Credit four in General paper.
He wants to be an aeronautical engineer. “I wanted to be a pilot, but later changed my mind. I think I will make a better engineer, than a pilot,†he told New Vision, after the release of national examinations this week.
Aerospace engineering is a branch of engineering behind the design, construction and science of air crafts and spacecraft. It is broken into two major and overlapping branches: aeronautical engineering and astronautical engineering; the former dealing with crafts that stay within Earth’s atmosphere.
He says that he may end up doing electrical engineering first, and will later upgrade to an aeronautical engineer. This is because in Uganda, no university handles a course in aeronautical engineering; meaning that he has to look out of the country in future for further studies.
Kisakye alternatively wants to sprout her desire of writing and believes she will one day be a journalist. She got CDDD in her history, economics, and literature and agriculture combinations.
She says that she has no regrets because she did her best. “I know that is what God gave me. I cannot say He should have given me more than that,†she added.
Their father Patrick Kaija says the success of his children, “originated from the Lord God Almighty, through various means and interventions that involved many people.â€
The children's contribution was clearly of focus; they Followed One Course Until Successful (FOCUS). David has always wanted to be an engineer from the time he was a kid at kindergarten.â€
Kisakye wants to be a journalist in future. “We thank God who through continued prayer and faith provided everything including a conducive environment, free of stress,†Patrick explained.
