My name is Saanvi Thapa, the name that carries a deep and beautiful meaning “Goddess Lakshmi” in Nepali, the goddess of wealth, wisdom and grace. I was born in the heart of Kuleshwor, Kathmandu, a place rich in culture, tradition, and the warmth of community on July 1st, 2014.
Every name has a story and mine inspires me to live with kindness, confidence and purpose. As I begin to tell the story of my life, I hope to share not only my experiences but also the dreams, lessons and values that shape who I am becoming.
One of the earliest and dearest memories I carry in my heart goes back to when I was just three years old. At that time, my mother was about to give birth to my younger brother. While she was away, I stayed with my older sister, and I though was very young, that moment left a deep mark in my heart.
I am currently studying in grade 6 and I’m 11 years old. I go to DAV Sushil Kedia Vishwa Bharati School where I’ve made many memories, learned many lessons and grown into the student I am today. I spend my days surrounded by friends, teachers and a world full of learning.
Among all the subjects, mathematics is my favourite. I love how the numbers make sense, how every problem has a solution and how it challenges my mind in exciting way.
I am really lucky to have a small but loving family. My father is a Police Officer (DSP), and I’m proud of him for working very hard to protect other people. My mother is a homemaker and she cares for us with extreme love and dedication. I also have a talented younger brother who brings joy to our house.
In my free time, I love dancing, reading and drawing. They help me express myself and keep me healthy. I also love watching series, movies but I especially love watching K-drama and K-pop.
My favourite colours are black which makes me feel strong and bold and yellow which reminds me of sunshine and happiness.
When I grow up, I want to become a surgeon, a special kind of a doctor who performs operations and helps people. It is a big dream but I’m determined to work hard and achieve it. I want to help people feel better, and bring smiles to their faces.
So, this is me Saanvi Thapa, a cheerful, curious, and caring girl who dreams big, loves deeply and shines in her own beautiful way.
Saanvi Thapa, 6 ‘B’
