Corrected Textmore↓My aunt Sarah was a well-known theater actress in the 40s. Almost no actresses could surpass her popularity back then, and she was happy. Her fans tried not to pass the chance up to get her autograph. Some passed themselves off as theater producers to get one. But years passed by. At the age of 89, she began to pass out almost weekly because of cerebral blood flow disorders. My aunt Sarah passed away at the age of 90. She passed $10,000,000 down to me.

Corrected Textmore↓The school year in Kenya is divided into three terms, each 13 weeks long, with one-month breaks in between. School days are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Uniforms are mandatory. Most classrooms have about thirty students in them.
Many schools provide lunch. Because Kenya is experiencing severe hardships, some students save all or part of their lunch to share with their families. Students study the Kiswahili language.
