She shared her thoughts with her boyfriend about doing journalism or law and her boyfriend told her to do journalism because she loves talking too much but her worry was how will she raise her college fee which was Ksh 40,000.
To raise the fee, she asked for more responsibility at work. From being a receptionist to the tea girl to the cleaner so that she could get a salary raise.
Eventually, her salary was increased from Ksh 3500 to Ksh 10000 and that how she managed to pay college fee.
