Hussin Alam said, my childhood was very hard and a nightmare. In a village where people start their morning with farming and have to run for their livelihood from one field to another, it is very difficult to find good words for inspirational education. Another main problem was financial difficulties. We had very hard time. We didn’t have enough money for study. I did farm work; full day work salary was only TK 90. I provided lesson for class 3 and 4 when I was class six, it was continued before go to London. The dream of studying in London was the dream of making the impossible to possible.
When I went to Canterbuty, Kent, UK, I didn’t have any place to sleep. Somehow, I found a place for sleep top of the restaurant. My one year expend was around 18/19 thousand pounds, as a middle-class family not possible to give me money for study in UK. To earn this money, I had to do three jobs, including kitchen pottery and cleaning. I used to do cleaning job in the morning, then hospitality management job at University of Kent and in the afternoon I was working as a manager of Indian restaurant till midnight. After work, I would stay up all night studying. I don't remember how many tears I shed and how many nights I didn’t slept. I remember Friday, Saturday, Sunday, these three days I slept only 2/3 hours. What is hard life I know very well.
